The primary role of vitamin B6 is to act as a coenzyme to many other enzymes in the body that are involved predominantly in metabolism. This role is performed by the active form, pyridoxal phosphate. This active form is converted from the two other natural forms founds in food: pyridoxal, pyridoxine and pyridoxamine.

Vitamin B6 is involved in the following metabolic processes:

* amino acid, glucose and lipid metabolism
* neurotransmitter synthesis
* histamine synthesis
* hemoglobin synthesis and function
* gene expression
