Study Links Vitamin B1 Intake To Health and Alertness
Mayo Clinic researchers led by Dr. Ray D. Willigans tested diets with less than 60 units of vitamin B1 daily versus at least 100 units. After 11 days, those with lower intake showed deficiency symptoms, while two subjects given oral B1 improved with increased dose. Symptoms varied from mild tingling to severe nerve and heart effects, suggesting other factors may influence deficiency and underscoring the need for foods rich in vitamin B1 such as whole grains, meat, seeds, and fruits.
