Vitamin B1 Deficiency Epidemic: Elliot Overton interviewed by @BoostYourBiology on Thiamine 

Thanks for the timestamps. They're so needed for long videos.

Thanks, was about to stop watching. It is a long run-on sentence, on and on.

@@bonnenaturel6688 no problem i made it for myself mostly

@@rab1df0x thanks!!!

if not for this, i would have skipped

Yes they do want us to be sick and dependent on their toxic medication for help. Keep us going and barely alive to provide profit.

Easy answer. Yes. Good for you for continue searching for help. What is the brand and type you are using. May I asked. I have chronic pain.

Digestive system shut down?

Why did your Digestive System shut down ??? What did you end up eating instead ???

Not smoking it I hope?

Amazeballs!

can you please tell me what form of B1 you have been using? Thank you

Benfotiamine is fat soluble and works best for neuropathies

@@Marwe b vitamins are water soluable, no need to be fat soluable. Simple Thiamine hcl took away excruciating (neuropathy)foot pain and hip joint pain overnight for me. It was like walking in broken glass. $7 from the pharmacy

That was a "side effect" I wasn't expecting but I noticed it on the first day. Bladder wasn't needing emptying as much

@Kenny D What type of B are you taking?

How are you doing now?

Please share the brand for mag and potassium

It's been a year. How are you feeling? Cfs sufferer here.

its also the #1 natural treatment for schizophrenia or any nervous fearful state, along with magnesium.

Is there a natural thiamine one should look for?

@@nonyabidness1838 I think a decent amount can be derived from yeast supplements

@@Shadow-bs1iu thank you! I actually have some of that.

​@@nonyabidness1838He has a video on the different types, but usually recommends starting with Thiamine HCL, then when you can tolerate that, move on to Benfotiame. There's one more, but not rveryone can take it.

My gran has had a slight leg wound on both shins and they never healed. Not serious or deep damage more like the skin was scraped against a rock. 9 months of bandages, creams, tests and antibiotics and they still wouod not heal. For the last week she was suffering with a lack of energy and being unable to breathe right. When I heard that my mind went right to B1 and I thought "its worth trying" so I took her up a bottle. Her breathing improved within an hour but it was 24 hours later she looked like a new person. Able to walk without her walker, wasn't such a struggle to get up stairs. But it was her mood, energy levels and improved breathing that was the most noticable. A week later and she was no longer freezing cold all the time. After taking the TTFD B1 for about 5 days she got her bandages changed. Mind these are wounds that haven't healed in almost a year! The nurse was shocked and mentioned the improvement straight away especially the bad edema - it was gone. I didn't know about the edema as her legs were always covered but it is 1 of the major signs of beriberi. So is being out of breath, tired, cold and having diarhea. Now I was only expecting it to help her breathing and maybe make her feel a bit better! So everyone is shocked, myself including, by how quickly she has improved. Even strange symptoms, like having a stiff painful neck, also went away. I have no idea how or why but hey so many other symptoms went away so why not. I'm impressed so much by thiamin. It is really an amazing vitamin.

You are correct!

Elites promoted carbs and then had Washington have us rda set at 1.2 mg. What a disgrace.

@@colinthomson5358 "I can't that both of you so much." What? Read what you type before posting!

Does this mean that raw or cooked garlic gives enough thiamine

Yes I found B1 by watching this guys video on that man who had a gut issue and was severely malnourished and then gained weight back on B1. I have had fatigue issues, so I thought I’d try it, and been taking for a few days now and I notice a big difference in my well being and spark for life. Very glad I found out more info on this B1 nutrient.

Hello, Can you update on your situation please ?

been with ibs for years on and off. Been in a very bad shape of IBS almost every day and very bad fatigue. Started b complex + benfothiamine 110mg + coenzymated thiamine .. felt great yesterday (compared to the baseline of the last 7 months.... ). Will keep supplementing. We'll see how it goes. I watched his lecture on: could this deficiency be causing all your gut problems or similar (see channel EONutrition) And what he explains there.. man.. it's all my symptoms perfectly described. Hope this helps and keeps working!

how you doing these days?

Hope ur feeling better 🙂

me too, not about covid but about searching for years for an answer and finding it here, and in Elliot's vids. It's such a relief, I think RU-vidrs should start treating us instead of useless doctors.

use B1 and potassium gluconate, take magnesium with these items.

Tell me please what you are going yo try I am also LC

@aboy1983 What brand are you buying & from where? I need to get some fast! Thx!!

Why?

I know the drill as I’ve been dealing with the health & medical establishment since 1993! My diagnosis’ are Lupus & Fibromyalgia and I’ve had many more issues over the last 30 years! So far my guess-estimate into how much I’ve spent on “medical aid” would be around $100,000! You’ll never believe this; I had a visit to a pain clinic this year and I had one 1/2 hour visit with a Dr. to go over my stats. Then they talked me into doing one shot in the lower back that didn’t require any sedation (it only took them 2 mins to do the shot!) THE COST ON THE BILL WAS $79,899!!! My co pay $10,000!! Talk about a Shocking unacceptable rip off! I’m SO OVER this ineffective rip off of a “medical system”! Also, There’s been NO CURES for any of these diseases I mentioned above along with cancers!! This makes no sense with all the time + money and research that’s been thrown at it! And now In 2023 it’s the near same protocols for Fibro & Lupus!! This tells me they DONT WANT US CURED! They have made it into sick care & not health care!! Humanity we are seriously in trouble. 🥺

@@KC-kh8df Well after 6 weeks I can say my diarrhea aka IBS is gone after taking 1800mg Benfotiamine. Now I'm going to work on my dry eyes (related to the vagus nerve so B1 should help) and tinnitus, both can take 2-3 mo. to heal completely. One has to be patient.

@@KC-kh8df I've watched many of Elliot's videos, and he specifically emphasizes that B1 is so helpful for fibromyalgia. You will get help, just be patient! Give it 5 weeks, maybe less! I started with 1,200mg Benfotiamine, then gradually upped the dose to 1,800.

@@KC-kh8df Awww... May your health skyrocket.

How are you feeling now

I read this comment as I drink my ☕️. I'm not giving up my coffee.

@@maxxpro4 thats the normal response; why? bc its an addictive drug, clearly.

@@Lauren-vd4qe I'll just supplement

me too ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ 😊

Leave 45 mins between coffee/ caffine and any supplements that you take as it compromises their value.

What dose?

you were concentrated on the dreams?

@@tonypowell250 I too am curious

@Jodi H...where do you get that? Thank You!!

@@SimplyHuman186lol 😂

Thank you for the feedback! 🤓 - Hopefully you enjoy some of my other videos!

Thanks Tina!! 🤓 Hopefully you enjoy some of my other videos!

Did you try B1 for your mom? If you did how is she doing?

You welcome. In that case you might like my other videos. I have a whole series on thiamine

@@EONutrition Thankyou - yes - i found this video while i had covid, and had it on a tab ready to watch when i had enough brain power to prcess it all. And yes I saw the others - i do have a bit of a background in nutritional mediicne and naturopathy and a deg in pathology. - im struggling with lingering covid issues, even worse dysautonomia than usual - and never, repeat never been susceptible to flu-viral infections till now. But today - while feeling rubbish in bed, i was thinking the long covid symptoms appear similar to thiamine deficincy. So - I googled it, and turns out Im not the only one who thinks that. I also suspect that if i look hard enough, i might find that fighting specific viral loads depletes specific groups of nutrients and impairs various enzyme pathhways, in particular in the mitochondria. I know they know that specific virus interrupt the ATP production at specific locations in the krebs cycle, but i reckon we are both very very B1 deficient. One thing i noticed with Acetylcholine - one medication i take is Modafinil - and when i kicks in, I just 'get up out of bed' without trying very hard. But without it - Im crippled. One of the MOA of Modafinil is increase of ACh. I also have a brain wave to try TTFD to help treat my husband who has tourettes - as benzos have reduced his tics considerably. SO maybe he has a natural TTFD deficiency. And yes - its criminal Dereks work was never adopted - i learned about it some time ago.

I've seen this on other channels, too. Not just him, but others. They should only put the camera on the person who is talking!

Just listen. It's not important to watch

@Brent J no but there is less end stage alcoholism i.e Wernicke - Korsakoff syndrome. There used to be wards full of predominately men with WK it is not a pretty illness. Shocking actually. But alcoholics do eventually die of alcohol related illnesses. If they don't get sober. Despite Thiamine in the beer at best it delays the onset of " wet brain" but only for some and only for awhile. Hope this helps IMO twelve step program is the only hope for alcoholics. But as it is a disease of stunted emotional growth and massive ego very few are open to what's on offer in AA.

@@margathea7072 a couple of years ago, I was reading a scientific paper that briefly mentioned in passing, that Ivermectin reduces alcohol cravings. There are apparently studies going on for alcoholism. Although I'm not alcoholic I can confirm from my experience as a 'normal' occasional drinker, that yes, I takes away the desire.

.. ⁰

Vegemite surely is the underrated self medicating product, somewhat protecting much of the alcoholic population of Australia.

Which one do you use?

Have you noticed any thing

@@electricsun4818 thanks for your interest. It’s been just over one month since I started taking supplements because I was desperate to regain some energy and stop my muscles hurting. I started the Thiamine protocol plus potassium, zinc and magnesium. I can honestly say that my muscles nolonger hurt at rest. It’s early days but I am pleased with my progress so far.

Parents have a choice on fertility

Yes absolutely malnutrition and early beri beri everywhere

​@@stew6302No, they don't actually.

Most food in America is processed garbage that causes cravings and disease states. We have a lot of corruption.

so,results?

Thank you for the feedback! 🤓 - Hopefully you enjoy some of my other videos!

This is expensive £30 for 60 capsules

@Sling Blade Yes , so they say . But I naively took 100 mg of HCL form of B1 followed by a cup of instant coffee , went straight to the gym and WOW . Went way past my usual limits on Deadlift , Leg press etc. I am 65 y.o. Kiwi bloke .

@Sling Blade I had big result from fasting , more energy , clear head. ALSO got more energy and no more joint pain from 5 grams of MSM (sulphur)every morning on empty tummy . Not sure if I should try TTFD with everything going so good with HCL form , its cheap and easy to find. I am very fit and back sprinting again .

@@jammyone5108 i am in nz. What brand do.you use. Thanks

@@cherylmcduff5388 Hi , I use the 'NOW ' brand Vit B1 ...100 mg HCL form . $21 at my local Health shop . If I dont take it . I am not able to do my workout at the gym .

@@jammyone5108 hi. Other than 100mg hcl what else supplement do you use? Is 100mg the dose you reacted well to?

Thank you

Thanks bro. May god bless you with multiple wives.

Second that. Elliot also seems well placed to have a productive discussion with Jack Kruse and Roger Seheult ... The ipRGC --> SCN --> pineal melatonin pathway being just a modest start ...

People are suffering from various degrees of malnutrition

I'm on big iodine too

Just incredible. Every single nutrient is vital in others' lives.

i take it as a suppository , so i get a kick in the arse

@@upyours1256 Not helpful

@@marliesyanke4580 LOL

Do you take any of the other things Elliot recommend? (ie magnesium, B complex, molybdenum etc.)

I buy frozen wild caught portioned salmon at Sam's N I eat a multi salad F dinner piece o fish, some green small sweet or reg potatoe Got off processed n sugar foods Was a real sugar addict😮 Hope this helps a bit Moderate low carb diet, w some olive oil n small pat butter I also have some ricotta n plain Greek yogurt Also, drink some komucha drinks

See Dr Stasha Gominak's work on that too!

Yes its nearly impossible to get supplements without it. Even going to nutrition stores and vitamin shoppe.

who was that guru

Premier Research Labs or Pure Encapsulation

@@Lauren-vd4qewho was that person?

i have no idea; no one told me @@King311___

What dose are you on?

Start Low dose

Unpack or slice the pill, repack lower dose of still issues try different kind

Thanks for the recommendation

same, it's amazing but it's expensive. you also need to take it before 6 since it will give you so much energy or adrenaline that you can't sleep at night. alas o you need small dose magnesium several times a day to calm down your nervous system

oh no, after experimenting with it for several months, I see there's the risk of it causing excessive hair shedding .

@@ff-ti7nj are you taking a b complex?

@@Mr-Raoui b complex made me worse, probably due to un methylated folate. I wouldn't gamble on mega dosing again. it made me hypothyroid

@@Mr-Raoui I found the reason behind it, thought you would like to know too. it's because it causes adrenal fatigue, and then hypothyrodism. search how many people have been fu Ed up for mega dosing vitamin b5 or any other of b vitamins.

Any info found?

Bs

@@King311___ I find his comment hard to believe

@@ketokarbs3671 he’s a 🐝 ich

Derrick Lonsdale noticed many people who were deficient in B1 had elevated Folate and B12. I can't remember the reason for this but it happened quite a bit. Sounds like you were low in B1 so adding B12 when you already had too much would have made you feel worse. It's not because B12 is bad or anything it was just the wrong thing for you. I'd guess you would be able to handle it better now. However since you are a bodybuilder you probably eat loads of meat so you probably don't need any extra B12.

@@colinthomson5358 UPDATE: after remedying my B1 deficiency, I can now handle methylcobalamin!! I take an MTHFR complex daily now, with 500mg of Thiamime HCL. No anxiety or rage now.

@@freepressright - Great news. I thought that would happen but I'm glad to have it confirmed

I had / have the same experience with b1 and b12. My tremors were quite bad and caffeine would send me over the edge. B12 makes me feel crazy. I’m only a week into supplementing b1 so on super small doses. Looking forward to continue to feel better

These comments gives me hope with my tremors. I been to many doctors and hospitals did nerve tests like emg and blood tests and nothing.thought parkisons or diabetic like my father but I still come out "healthy" yet with tremors and anxiety. Been trying to figure this out on my own and I'm glad I watched this video and saw these comments. I take b complex at the moment but will get off and only take b1.

I didn't find Amazon expensive

@@lettheriver Check again. You're looking at the cheap generic version

I've been taking benfotiamine from Amazon for over 30days and noticed a difference with my fibro.

why do you think??

@@nydiamontanez8025 Please elaborate

Everything what a mother is deficient in, the fetus will have problems too. Also, the mothers body will give the fetus al it can give for its development, so the mother will be damaged also by robbing her of her own nutrients, even if she will decline. Toxins also will be passed on her fetus. Medicines, vaccinations, so those also damage the fetus. Also, everything she eats full of pesticides, heavy metals, herbicides, fungicides, molds etc. Also all inhaled toxins from her work place, living space> fire retardants in wallpaper, carpets, paints, solvents, acrilics...Drinking from plastic bottles, utencils, teflon pots and pans, tapwater ( chlorine, fluoride etc ), fluor toothpaste ( very toxic which contains aluminum and other chemicals ). Cleaning products...soaos, shampoo, air perfumes, deo, bath pears, bubblebath products. To get rid of all this 100's of toxins, chemicals and so on she needs nutrients to detoxify her system before conception and so on. Kind regards

Yes, I was thiamine deficient with one of my pregnancies and my child was born with thiamine deficiency.

did you have them vaccinated, some vaccines interfere with thiamine absorption

@@ajrwilde14 yes. I didn't know that 😨

benfotiamine or thiamine HCL :)

Is there oxalate content in TTFD?
