Research synthesisLow evidenceSmall effect3 studies · 0 beneficial · 3 neutral · 0 harmful

Across 3 studies, all reported neutral effects with small effect sizes for vitamin B6 on anxiety. No studies found statistically significant benefits. The evidence base is small and conclusions should be considered preliminary.

  • Studied populations: young adults, fibromyalgia patients, children with Tourette syndrome and anxiety

Caveats: Evidence base is small (only 3 studies) — conclusions should be considered preliminary. None of the studies reached statistical significance, suggesting the effect may be negligible.
