so I have a lot of videos in button p1

and I’m gonna put some links down below

if you don’t know what it does but if

you’re deficient and b1 not only are you

gonna have problems with your memory but

you’re gonna have a lot of stress in the

body heart issues edema fatigue

what’s a condition called lactic

acidosis where your breathing is

affected restless leg syndrome and you

can have all sorts of dangerous

consequences just from that alone

because of its importance I want to talk

about all the different ways you can

become deficient that go beyond just a

diet let’s just go through them number

one consuming refined carbohydrates as

in breads pasta cereal crackers biscuits

things like that because the more

refined that carbohydrate is the more be

one you need to metabolize that

carbohydrate and this is why they

enriched those grain products with

synthetic b1 alcohol is a real big one

okay the more alcohol you drink the more

deficient b1 you’re going to be stress

high levels of cortisol will deplete a

vitamin b1 and of course sugar having

high blood sugar from consuming sugar

and that’s why diabetics are nearly

always deficient in b1 and they have

complications of peripheral neuropathy

because anything related to inflammation

of the nerve destruction of the myelin

sheath around the nerve you want to look

for in b1 deficiency in addition to that

you can also have problems with the

nerves and other parts of the body that

are affected like the inner ear so you

might have hearing loss ringing in the

ear you might have problems with the

nerve to the eye the retina for example

as in diabetic retinopathy which you

could go blind from that vitamin b1

protects the nerves against the damage

of the high-sugar then we have gastric

bypass so if you alter either the

stomach or the small intestine you limit

the absorption of vitamin b1 vomiting

will create a deficiency of b1 having an

infection will deplete your b1

antibiotics like in flagyl or cipro will

deplete your b1 diuretics will do it and

as a side now diuretics will deplete all

the water

soluble vitamins not just beat complex

but vitamin C as well in addition to the

minerals like potassium metformin will

deplete vitamin b1 increasing your

chances of getting lactic acidosis

what’s interesting about metformin is

they have a blackbox warning that one of

the side effects on taking metformin is

lactic acidosis because it could be

deadly even though it’s rare but that

comes from the v1 deficiency you can

actually get rid of lactic acidosis

within 24 hours just by taking diming

genetic defects that affect the

transportation of b1 if you have that

condition it’s rare but you can have it

that can cause a deficiency as well

white rice and that’s refined carb but

specifically white rice you can lead to

something called berry berry which is a

severe b1 deficiency and it can create

so many conditions especially with

certain parts of the brain there’s a

condition involving a b1 deficiency in

the brain which targets the mammillary

bodies where the mammillary bodies

actually start shrinking and there’s a

connection between that brain structure

and producing new memories so if you

find that you could remember the old

stuff but new things are difficult that

could be that situation like say for

example you can’t remember what you ate

three days ago or where you put your

keys and one last point I always

recommend keep taking b1 in its natural

form and unfortified nutritional yeast

is a good source and if you take it

you’re going to notice that your stress

goes down and you might just start

having more energy because b1 is

intimately involved in helping you make

energy alright thanks for watching
