Despite being a water-soluble vitamin, the human body stores a surprising amount of vitamin B6, particularly in muscle tissue. This ability to store excess vitamin B6 is a crucial factor in understanding both its functions and the potential for toxicity from high-dose supplementation.

While many sources state that water-soluble vitamins are not stored in the body and are simply excreted, vitamin B6 presents a notable exception. Unlike most other B vitamins, a significant portion of B6 is, in fact, stored within the body's tissues.
