What does it do?
Vitamin B1 is is a water-soluble
vitamin needed to process carbohydrates, fat, and protein. Every
cell of the body requires vitamin B1 to form the fuel the body
runs on-adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Nerve cells require vitamin
B1 in order to function normally.
Who is likely to be deficient?
A decline in vitamin B1 levels
occurs with age, irrespective of medical condition.1 Deficiency
is most commonly found in alcoholics, people with malabsorption
conditions, and those eating a very poor diet. It is also common
in children with congenital heart disease.2 People with chronic
fatigue syndrome may also be deficient in vitamin B1.3 4 Individuals
undergoing regular kidney dialysis may develop severe vitamin
B1 deficiency, which can result in potentially fatal complications.5
Persons receiving dialysis should discuss the need for vitamin
B1 supplementation with their physician.
How much is
usually taken?
While the ideal intake is uncertain, one study
reported the healthiest people consumed more than 9 mg per day.6
The amount found in many multivitamin supplements (2025
mg) is more than adequate for most people.
Vitamin B1 is nontoxic, even in very high amounts.
Are there any
side effects or interactions?
Vitamin B1 works hand in hand with vitamin
B2 and vitamin B3. Therefore, nutritionists usually suggest that
vitamin B1 be taken as part of a B-complex vitamin or other multivitamin
supplement.
