Thanks, ccc. I didn't realize you had responded, I never got notice. Anyway, hopefully you are still here. I am still debating over this supplement. I am worried about the amount of B12 - it is 600mcg but that is 10,000%! That seems like an awful lot, doesn't it? I just had my B12 tested the other day and my level is at around 1200. It's come down, but still high. Is a dosage that high ok? Also, could you explain the B1 and B2? Should they be dosed similarly for a certain reason? Thanks so much!

Over time, B6 can reach toxic levels which can take months to get back to normal. I saw online it can even cause nerve problems.

Once I had B6 toxicity, +/- eight times the normal concentration in the blood, as I was drinking energy drinks before work outs.

I was having racing thoughts, talking fast, not a pretty scene.

Now I take a B12/B6/Folate supplement with B6 at 75% of the recommended dosage. Because we can B6 from food as well.
