Vitamin B6 deficiency
Vitamin B6 is a nitrogen-containing compound that exists mainly in three natural forms: pyridoxine (PN), pyridoxal (PL), pyridoxamine (PM) and their phosphate derivatives (PLP, PNP, PMP). Vitamin B6 deficiency includes two types: vitamin B6 deficiency in a narrow sense and vitamin B6 dependence. The former refers to a syndrome caused by insufficient intake of vitamin B6 from food or the inactivity of vitamin B6 or increased excretion due to taking certain drugs. Vitamin B6 dependence refers to a condition in which patients take the amount of vitamin B6 required by healthy people but still suffer from vitamin B6 deficiency, which is mostly a hereditary disease.
