The important of Vitamin B6 on our brain functionality and mood regulation meant this was a must for Spruce, and we are very pleased to be high in such an important vitamin.

RECOMMENDEDDAILY ALLOWANCE
The RDA, or NRV (Nutritional Reference Value), for Vitamin B6 in adults is 1.4 mg (milligram) daily in the UK and EU. One made up Spruce contains 0.7mg (50% of NRV), meaning you can enjoy multiple Spruce drinks in a day.
Vitamin B6 is water soluble, which means excess vitamins will pass through in your urine. That being said, the medical profession advise a safe upper limit of 100 mg a day. It is always best to check with a doctor before taking a supplement, especially if you have an existing health condition, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
