As cases of blood toxicity from Vitamin B6 continue to rise doctors raise concerns about the level of the product in food and especially energy drinks.
I can’t access the ABC article. For some reason the website won’t load. Without trying to sound ignorant and arrogant, surely we’d know if people were experiencing toxic levels by now? It’s been multiple decades since energy drinks became a mainstay in society. I know plenty of people who drink multiple daily, sugar, and sugar free.
I’m yet to meet a single person who’s experienced any issues related to b6 toxicity. I do know people who’ve had to cut back their intake due to consuming too much sugar though.
I personally refuse to have the sugar free variants. The majority of them use Sucralose as their sugar replacement and that destroys my guts more than normal sugar. Studies also state it may destroy healthy gut bacteria too. It’s in far too many products, and I’ll take the full sugar version of the alternative every time.
A lot of B6 toxicity symptoms are pretty mild so they could be easy to miss. I had tingly digits and sore thumb/big toes. Seemed like gout. Dropped my high strength B supplement and it went away.
I just largely cut sweet drinks, both sugar and artificial, out if my diet nearly 2 decades ago. Problem solved. Never understood why energy drinks were popular anyway - they taste like ass. Black coffee master race.
Being unable to understand why people like sugary flavored drinks that keep you awake and contain addictive chemicals and calling it an opinion is like saying “climate change isn’t real, that’s just my opinion.”
I completely understand why people like sugary flavored drinks with addictive chemicals. I just don’t understand why they drink the ones that taste like ass.
I like energy drinks and coffee. It’s not really one or the other for me. I also take NoDoz when I don’t want any liquid. They don’t all taste bad. There’s honestly hundreds of different flavours lol.

Seems like a weird statement to say that you cannot understand why someone would like something that you don’t like?
It’s called having an opinion.

That opinion is wrong.
