B-1 (Vitamin B1-Thiamine, Vitamin B1, Vit.B1, Thiamine)
Vitamin B1, also known as Thiamine,
is a water-soluble, essential vitamin in the B-vitamin family
that helps the body release energy from carbohydrates and regulate
the metabolism. It is thought to help the body to promote a
healthy digestive and nervous system. Vitamin B1 also nutritionally
aids memory and heart functions. This vitamin is thought to
be important for the maintenance of healthy, clear, luminous
skin, hair and eyes. Vitamin B1/Thiamine deficiencies result
in serious health problems, such as Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome
and beriberi, both of which are common in alcoholics. Because
Thiamine is water-soluble, it passes through the body; however,
once it is absorbed in the body, it can be stored in the muscles.
