A dangerous disease can cause vitamin B6 deficiency

Vitamin B6 is involved in metabolism and is necessary for the proper functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system. It helps to form neurotransmitters: serotonin and norepinephrine. Doctors warn that a dangerous disease can cause B6 deficiency.

Main sources of the vitamin: chickpeas, beef liver, yellowfin tuna, chicken breast, bananas and tofu. It is found in smaller amounts in avocados, brown rice, carrots, fish, milk, pork and potatoes. Experts include peripheral neuropathy with tingling, numbness and pain in the hands and feet, anemia, seizures, depression, confusion, and a weakened immune system as symptoms of B6 deficiency. Scientists believe that vitamin deficiency can lead to hypothyroidism.

This disease occurs due to a lack of thyroid hormones. It threatens obesity, infertility and heart disease. The danger of hypothyroidism is that it is often not accompanied by pain, so the probability of detecting it in time is very low, doctors warn. Symptoms appear slowly over several years, fatigue and weight gradually increase.

Doctors note that this condition is more common in middle-aged and older women, as well as in people whose relatives had thyroid diseases.< /p>
