High Dose Thiamine For Parkinson's Disease: IHCAN Conference 

What was the Optimizer? Brand, etc??

@@sncnutrition7118 It is JARROW brand from the health food store. "Adrenal Optimizer". It is around 26.00. You could probably get it on line. I took 2 with 1 B1. I would then wait 4 hours and take the same dosage again. You will know when to cut back to 1 dose. I was so ill that I would take it as soon as I got up, usually at 8 am then at noon. I feel so much better!!! I took this for 8 months. I will never stop taking the B1...now I only take 1 a day at 150mg. God bless you. I pray you feel better soon! Anyone with anger or stress isues, even depression would benefit from these supplements! 🌝⚘💥💕

What kind of B1 are you taking?

@@Andreas_K_III I get from a pharmacist who has a health store. It is by KLAIRE LABS. It is called BENFOTIAMINE B1 SUPPLEMENT 150 MG 60 capsules at 24.99. I don't know if you can order it on line. God bless you! It has helped me so much! ⚘💕⚘💕

Dosages?

Thats awesome. I'd say that 100mg is quite a low dose for many people though, so that is something to consider!

@@EONutrition I have the same thoughts. In the book it talks about sublingual dosage of 100mg vs 1000mg or more orally swallowed. The dosage question still remains. I experimented with 100 sublingual twice a day, but felt a lag in strength. The was early on. I may try again now that I am 8 months in.

​@@EONutritionHi. I have been using benfotiamine 500 mg for 4 days. Side effects are mild itching, nerve pain, feeling irritable. I used 750 mg for 1 day, I felt more uncomfortable that day. Is it necessary to use it in this case?

I have only used the sublingual form found at iherb B1 100mg sublingual by Superior Source. Only good results here@@kenanmamedov2996

Taurine, magnesium, and potassium also helps lower blood pressure.

As a retired end of life care nurse, I love hearing these stories! I served many drinks (under physician orders) and observed the various physical and psychosocial effects. For some, the ritual itself was so calming and supportive that the patient barely drank and was relaxed and in less pain. One lady had a shot of Southern Comfort every night for PTSD and sleep. She was a Holocaust survivor.

@@auntkaren3803 you are absolutely correct! And in my opinion = it's their last time on earth = so why shouldn't they be happy! PS i tried too get the nursing home T00 once or twice a week/ get fast food from the fast food restaurants for them! That is what most of them were used too eating! But no! They would eat when they got that! But nursing home only wanted too complain that they had T00 through away lots of food and how much it cost $ ! I tried too explain that off of the Dollar menu it would save them money & the people would eat better and be happier! Next on my mother's last Hospice! Half of the staff and other people [ either were happy or TOTALLY mad at me ] because? I did not want her too lay in agonizing pain! So i told them and they did give her hard drugs so she would not be in pain! She only had a few days either way (in pain or no pain)! I think that when their turn eventually comes = they will opp for drugs over pain!.

Maybe I need to start having a drink 🥃 each night 😊

Superior Source B1 100 mg sublingual….I live rural, had to get online

I buy it on Amazon

Vitamin B1 injections are superior to pills.

I take 1000 mg daily! So calm in my thoughts after just two days!!!!!😃

We got the notification it is back TODAY. Will be available on the website this week

He has a video about different B1 all of these are sintetic. I think that the B1 that you are mentioning is the least absorbed by the body. He says that some times using high doses of thiamine is not to help or improve deficiency but fix some process on the brain that are disrupted for some reason. Anyhow hit EOnutrition and you will see all his videos.

interesting I will read that asap

Could be an electrolyte imbalance. Maybe low on potassium or magnesium. Or could be your body reacting to something in your diet.

I’ve heard that Restless leg syndrome may come from a tyrosine deficiency, tyrosine is a precursor of dopamine…

Try B1 injections

Try low dose naltrexone

Please help

potassium is super important for everything including drinking benfo so take potassium supplements and/or eat beet leafy greens (the leafs from the beet stem) and other high potassium foods@@DH-ht9pl

I did basically the same thing. I went from 100mg TTFD and 300mg benfothiamine every morning and felt better immediately. That lasted about 2 weeks before the Paradoxical symptoms started. They subsided after about a month. I upped the dose by taking the same amount twice a day and the same thing happened. After about a month improvements came and I upped the dose again. I now take 100mg of TTFD and 300mg combined with 700mg magnesium and 1500mg potassium three times a day and a methylated B-complex in the morning and I haven’t had any paradoxical symptoms so far and it’s been over a month. All I’m seeing now are improvements. My anxiety is pretty much gone and so is my brain fog. I had a TMJ problem, gone. My neuropathy in my foot has improved by 90%, it’s not a constant pain anymore. Most of the time I don’t feel it at all. The neuropathy in my hand is completely gone. My POTS are gone. My gut issues have been resolved. Even my eye has improved. I’ve had a retinal hemorrhage in my right eye and been getting monthly injections to stabilize it. For the first time in three years are the doctors seeing improvements and actual remission. The only thing I still struggle with is air hunger, I often feel like I can’t take a deep breath and I still have a hard time getting rid of lactic acid. I’ve started supplementing with bicarbonate that I take before bed and that seems to help. The only tip I can give you is pushing through the paradoxical reactions because they will die off. Have in mind that new completely different symptoms can occur, even ones you never had before.

discovered the difference?

Thiamine is vitamine B1 Thiamax is a brand name of Thiamine TTSD or vitamine B1.

Established Parkinson's disease

Any alcohol-related condition seems to have vitamin B1 written all over it!

@@kittendkat5100 she decided to keep drinking🤷‍♀️ But I’m going to take it for my issues anyhow.

@@cleocatra9324 hope she changes her mind again. Alcohol is poison

NAD shits is good too & NA..

You can always get a vitamin b injection.

What type of B1 are you taking?

​@Freedom-2BME I started with nutritional yeast and magnesium, and then I started to take Benfotiamine, increasing the dosage every couple of days. I added thiamine chloride because of the digestive issues. I am planning to order TTFD as well. I have improved tremendously in the last three months, actually struggling my whole life before. Heartbreaking. Wish you well.

​@@nadimares7153 Great to hear! what were your symptoms?

Wut is ur symptoms?

@@Medinalegend POTS, long covid, GERD/SIBO, fatigue

Cripes, we may all be different. I've been doing B1 off & on for that amount of time & I can go days without it because I can tell when I don't need anymore. The other thing I'm doing may or may not help you, it's what he recommends for anyone with neuropathy, which is so broad it can encompass your specific symptoms. He recommends agmatine, which the body can make out of L-arginine, I think. Anyhow I'm taking the arginine at 10 to 1 with Hyaluronic Acid which is a building block of the damaged nerve sheaths. My mental acuity has gone up, but physically things are in flux.

@@choosecarefully408 H.A building nerve ?

@@Medinalegend The sheaths that coat them. & glad you asked because I'm starting to realize that even 10 to 1 is too much H.A.

yes

I believe that one is fat soluble so take with fats, other is water soluble and will pee out most you dont need

Befotiamine is 5 times stronger than thiamine HCL. It is the fat-soluble form of B1.

i believe its ttfd. The most bio available form

Sibo what food to eat

Nutritional Yeast and Pork both food sources have the most Thiamine
