I think some energy drinks have it too.
The daily B6 requirement is tiny, yet people take these huge doses, many unknowingly.
The link listed by Kiwi33 is excellent, but be aware that people are reporting B6 neuropathy and high blood B6 levels on lower doses than are generally regarded as dangerous in the literature.
As well as genetic processing issues (enzymopathies) I suspect some people have genetic weakness is their nerves, which makes them vulnerable to toxic assault.

yes, but it usually indicated on the nutrition facts, area. People consume it because, they believe it will boost them when they are working out or exercising, even if they have regular levels in thier body, assuming they dont have any undrerlying disorder. vitamins also carry a risk of containing other stuff in there, since they are not regulated.
