Overall, we highly recommend Nutricost’s Vitamin B1 supplement for anyone looking to improve their overall health and wellbeing.

We know how important it is to maintain a healthy intake of vitamins and minerals for our overall well-being. However, lipid-soluble derivatives of thiamine, such as thiamine propyl disulfide, thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide, and benfotiamine, are reported to be more bioavailable than water-soluble thiamine, and have been used to treat diabetic neuropathy, myalgia, and some other conditions. Without enough “fuel” from our diets going toward the function of our nervous system, we can experience nerve damage that can result in trouble moving, learning and remembering information. Thiamin contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, the normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological function, and the normal function of the heart. Therefore breastfeeding women may need to alter their dose and should not take thiamine unless they’ve spoken to their GP.When you eat thiamine-rich foods, they help the body convert carbohydrates to energy, which is important for your metabolism, focus and overall strength. The activity of vitamin B1-dependent enzymes has been found to be lower in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.

If you are taking thiamine to treat Vitamin B1 deficiency, your dose will remain the same until your B1 levels have increased and any symptoms have subsided.CONDITIONS OF USE AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION: This information is meant to supplement, not replace advice from your doctor or healthcare provider and is not meant to cover all possible uses, precautions, interactions or adverse effects.
