Vitamin B1 (also known as Thiamine): This is the spark plug of the body’s engine. It is part of an enzyme that triggers the burning of sugar and converts it to energy B1 improves mental alertness, memory and attention span and improves moods, prevents depression. Lack of B1, Lactic Acid is formed During the breakdown of glucose to produce energy, Pyruvic and Lactic Acid are formed after athletic performance. (Pyruvic acid - a liquid formed to help release energy to the body) B1 breaks down the Pyruvic Acid to Carbon Dioxide (exhaled air) and water Vitamin B1 is needed to convert Lactic Acid into glycogen (storage sugar). If an under-supply of B1 occurs, those changes cannot occur and the acids remain in the tissues which irritates them. The accumulation of Pyruvic and Lactic Acid are toxic to the brain cells, causes muscle stiffness and sore joints. Lack of B1 can cause muscles to stop functioning causing intestinal cramps and constipation or IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) as well as heart attacks. Lack of B1 also causes lowered mental alertness and depression. Improves the function of the T- cells (essential for the Immune System to fight ) and is essential for the health of the nervous system.
