Study says vitamin B6 helps people recall their dreams

Washington: Researchers have found that taking vitamin B6 could help people to recall their dreams.
The study published in the journal — Perceptual and Motor Skills — included 100 participants from around Australia taking high-dose vitamin B6 supplements before going to bed for five consecutive days.
“Our results show that taking vitamin B6 improved people’s ability to recall dreams as compared to a placebo,” said research author Dr Denholm Aspy, from the University’s School of Psychology.
Vitamin B6 did not affect the vividness, bizarreness or colour of their dreams, and did not affect other aspects of their sleep patterns.
This is the first time that such a study into the effects of vitamin B6 and other B vitamins on dreams has been carried out on a large and diverse group of people,” Dr Aspy said.
The randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study saw participants taking 240mg of vitamin B6 immediately before bed.
