Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine Hydrochloride)
Vitamin B6 is supplied as pyridoxine hydrochloride, a white crystalline powder, freely soluble in water and stable to heat but degraded by light. It is the precursor of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, the coenzyme for more than a hundred enzymatic reactions, most of them in amino-acid metabolism. Being water-soluble, it is not stored in the body and must be supplied continuously.

Vitamin B6 is used in multivitamins, energy drinks, prenatal formulas and animal feed premixes. It participates in amino-acid metabolism, so high-protein feed rations and sports nutrition products both include it. It is reasonably heat-stable, which makes it suitable for extruded and baked products.
