What is Vitamin B1?
Vitamin B1, also known as thiamine, is an essential nutrient that the body uses to extract energy from food, support the health of the nervous system, and optimize heart function.
Why should you have Vitamin B1 tested?
Testing vitamin B1 levels is useful for individuals at risk of deficiency, such as the elderly, people with alcohol dependence, and those with certain medical conditions that affect nutrient absorption. It can also be beneficial for those aiming for an overall improvement in their well-being.
What does it indicate?
The test for vitamin B1 levels helps determine whether an individual has an adequate level of this nutrient for healthy bodily functions. It indicates the body's efficiency in converting food into energy, the health of the nervous system, and heart function.
What does a high Vitamin B1 level mean?
A high level of vitamin B1 is rare and usually indicates adequate intake through diet or supplements. Finding a balance is important, as extremely high doses can be harmful.
What does a low Vitamin B1 level mean?
A low level of vitamin B1 may indicate a deficiency, which can lead to health problems such as beriberi, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, muscle weakness, and reduced heart function.
