I didn't have a solid stool for over 3 years had so many samples and blood tests all came back normal. Doctor said it's probably chronic fatigue syndrome I was drinking heavy for a few years ended up in detox to get of the alcahol and they gave me thiamine and within a week My bowel movements had gone back to normal and I have so much more energy. I just don't no why doctors couldn't figure it out I am so happy after 3 years of worrying.
@@D37fit my stools weren't normal for 3 years and I started taking thiamine 2 100mg tablets a day and a week later stools were normal so relieved. My tests came back normal to are you a heavy drinker?
What Elliot is saying 100% right… I have chronic digestive issues, recently (6-7 weeks ago) started loosing appetite which led to sudden weight loss.. went to see GI doctor who suggested let’s do another second colonoscopy and endoscopy which is lierally within 13 months since I first diagnosed.. this video was god sent for me… I followed the advice provided in this video… it was my 4th regular dose of 250gm Thiamine, Magensium with B6 and B complex( not a mega dose), with tiny ginger in my meals.. I was hungry on 5th day and started recovering… doctors have no clue they just want to put their gadgets and medicines in your body without understanding your underlying issues! Thank you
I can attest for the validity of this video. I got terribly sick slowly over the years after a lot of stress and some viral infections. I didn't even bother going to the doctor because I knew my complaints were too diverse to even get a proper diagnosis. Extreme nausea, chronic fatigue, insomnia, chronic anxiety, poor immune system; no chance a doctor was going to say "You're deficient in B1". So I one day I stumbled upon a video which recommended B1 for fatigue. I decided to start with 250mg Thiamine HCL , 600mg Magnesium and 1.5g of Potassium and I've been improving day by day ever since. I hardly have any complaints any more after a couple of weeks. It really is a miracle "drug" in this context and almost nobody seems to know about it.
Hi Elliot, I'm Fausto from italy, I had intestinal problems with SIBO, hypochlorhydria, for 2 years, your disclosure for high doses of thiamine saved my life and for that I will always be grateful ! Thanks !
Thank you for tipping me off to this, Elliot. I began the high dose thiamine about a year ago and my life has changed. I've suffered from CONSTANT tiny muscle spasms (I describe them as vibrations) for decades. It's not like the classic (dramatic) Charlie Horse. The muscles will just keep 'shivering' for hours and hours. It's like a workout and lactic acid builds up, but I never get time for a recovery. The thiamine works where nothing any doctor has prescribed has. I'm able to fall asleep much easier without being tortured for hours before I'm so exhausted I fall asleep despite the pain. Now, it's just gone. If I miss a day or two, the shakes come back. I take 2000 mg every single day, sometimes twice a day. I introduced my daughter to thiamine and had to nag her for months before she became desperate enough to try it, and boom. Now she's just as devoted to her daily dose as I am. She's told her friends about it and the results are amazing. One older lady she's friends with is an alcoholic and this vitamin saved her. Two others have other chronic illnesses and they describe high dose thiamine as a miracle. No, it doesn't 'cure' everything, but it makes SUCH a difference that it's worth sticking with. If it weren't for you, I'd still be suffering to this day. And so would many other people. I deeply appreciate your devotion to understanding human health.
This is so true! Doctors don't routinely check vitamin levels and they have a great deal to do with our health! If you have any type of immune condition it will often keep your vitamins depleted. There are thousands of people needlessly suffering and paying thousands to doctors when they just need to know their vitamin levels, and various vitamins affect many systems in the body. Doctors need to take massive nutrition courses along with their other studies in order to properly treat people. For many people this is an easy fix, but the health industry is reluctant, why is this...could it be $$$$?
I have a very specific B1 story. A few years ago I was exposed to flea and tick poison accidentally while putting a new flea and tick collar on my dog. I had a very small cut on the tip of my index finger and the poison made it's way into my body. The next day my hand was starting to feel numb, and this numbness worked its way up my arm, face, and right side, and both feet over several days. I had convinced myself that I was going to go to the doctor if I didn't feel better in the morning. The next morning the problem began to recede. I probably should have seen a poison specialist but I decided not to. Over the next week or so the feeling returned, but I had some burning and tingling, and also some feeling of weakness on my right side. Sometimes my right foot hurt in a strange way, especially when walking. Over a year or so, the problem got a little better but never really went away. Then I was researching Thiamine (I've been into nutrition for a few years now) and more specifically I read about sulbutiamine, that it is good for treating neuropathic issues. I ordered a bottle of this and megadosed for a few days. The problem resolved! I decided to reduce the dose to twice the recommended amount. Now it has been a couple of years and I have been doing well. I take the sulbutiamine every day. I also have a friend who recently came down with Bells Palsy shortly after getting the covid vaccine. I gave her a bottle of sulbutiamine and told her to take a double dose for a week and then the recommended dose after. She came up to me in church a couple of weeks later and thanked me. She told me that the Bells Palsy resolved quickly after taking the sulbutiamine. It really is amazing, and very encouraging to see that we can help each other in this way. It's worth adding that I don't take the sulbutiamine by itself which would probably be a bad idea long term. I also take a high quality B complex, magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin A (that's a whole other story), vitamin K2, selenium, bovine thyroid, and other nutritional supplements, and I avoid seed oils and wheat (but I do eat spelt, which is a more traditional non-GMO form of wheat). Anyways, thanks Elliot and God bless you.
This is why I never put flea treatment on my cats, it’s highly toxic and I believe is one of the main reason why my cats lived until nearly 22. The vets said they never see cats this old anymore. Dog and feline cancers are so prevalent nowadays, we need to realise if we put toxic chemicals over them for years on end it has consequences. T]here’s a product called Billy no mates, it’s a natural flea/tick treatment my parents used on their dogs, they never had problems so worth checking out for your dog 🐶❤️
@@jsj047 I can only say what I told my friend to try. I recommended she double up (400mg) daily for a week and then take 200mg daily after that. She came back to me two weeks later and told me her symptoms resolved. Your own experience may differ. Remember that this is a fat soluble vitamin, so take it with food. For my own neuropathy I took 1000mg daily for a week, and that made it almost completely resolved. I keep taking it regularly.
Can I just say I LOVE YOU! This is exactly what has been happening to me! I’ve been to my PCP, an Endocrinologist, a cardiologist and a Functional doctor. None of them have been able to help me! My functional doctor did mention circulation and vagus nerve issue, but none have been able to connect all the issues together. I was so hopeless because I’ve never had any health problems my entire life and I hit 40 and all this stuff started happening. I kept being told “it’s due to stress”. I kept saying, but I don’t feel stressed! I’m now 43 and finally you’ve made sense of the last 3 years of my life in minutes! God bless you!
As a Trained, professional Nutritional Therapist who uses Optimal Blood Chemistry Analysis testing, taught by Dr Harry Eidenier, PhD, I couldn't agree more with what you are saying! Thanks for your channel and providing proven research and information to help the public find the truth!
“Leaky gut” often is low glutamine levels due to chronic stress and illness. The body will prioritize using glutamine for stress hormones and neurotransmitters, and that leaves not enough for intestinal repair. Glutamine is the main amino acid in the production of smooth muscles cells in the guy. So the body cannot repair itself. Glutamine becomes conditionally essential in times of stress or some people end up with “leaky gut”
I needed much more than that after a recent setback. With Glutamine, I have added Artemisinin, Butyrate, and Saccharomyces Boulardii. I think I will add Thaimine also. My diet has been Paleo with a small amount of vegetables for over a year. These things are working so far. I have also lost 150 lbs.
@@SkeebosRibShack I am doing well. I still eat only one meal a day, take Glutamine and many other supplements. I occasionally have a set back and have to heal my gut again, maybe I will always have some IBS. I'm 70 and don't heal as well as someone younger would, but I do pretty well.

It was a good interview, but you interrupted your guest way too much. I think it would be better to wait until he’s done answering the question before adding your own input
I am experiencing paradoxical reactions even with a low dosage of 25 mg of benfotiamine, as all my reflux symptoms reappear. Could this indicate a significant depletion of thiamine in my system?
My sudden onset peripheral neuropathy symptoms were…chilblains with ulcers, Raynauds syndrome in my fingers (but not thumbs), double resting pulse rate, profuse sweating under arms and groin due to core heat not being dissipated efficiently, serious brain fog, blue nose and ears, very low tolerance to cold. My doctor was absolutely clueless, said “just one of those things that happen “ 😳. Had to do my own research. I took benfotiamine and alpha lipoic acid…this was before I heard of TTFD. Benfotiamine almost cured my symptoms…80%.. now Raynauds is only triggered in extreme cold, all other symptoms are virtually gone. Just my right middle finger often feels cold. It took about 6 months to recover to 80%. If your diet consists of mainly processed foods, you can pretty much guarantee you are thiamine deficient.
@@Matt-fq6ly the thiamine added to processed foods are poorly absorbed by the body. It is usually thiamine mono nitrate or thiamine hydrochloride, which have a maximum absorption rate of about 5% in a healthy person, less if they have gut issues. Also eating a processed food diet is more likely to cause gut and absorption problems in the first place, such as reflux, acidity issues affecting the absorption of other vitamins and minerals, and the use of artificial vitamins and minerals that the body can’t use.
@@bbsaid218 I never liked that Chinese owned brand, but I might reconsider. Currently suffering from LC and I'm quite sure I have a Thiamine deficient. I want to try his megadose program. So TTFD was much better than Benfotiamine for you?
@@serenity9299 it may have helped with gut motility but just like everything else I try it came at the cost of the same adverse effects that leave me unable to continue using it. This is profound overwhelming headaches, brain fog, and fatigue.
I can't thank you enough. I've had severe back spasms for years, no meds help, Osteopath can't find the cause. Yesterday I took a mega dose of B1 as I was in agony rolling around on the floor things were so bad. Within 2 hours all pain had gone so I went for a walk, later the spasm pain began to build up again so I took another high dose, again the pain melted away. This is something huge which I intend to persue. Thank you so, so very much.
My wife has all the symptoms described in these videos... dysautonomia, heart arythmias, chronic gut pain and motility issues, ibs, nausea and vomiting, food sensitivities, extreme bloating and gas, anxiety, etc.. she's miserable. labs don't find much, doctors don't know what's going on... I've convinced her to try high dose thiamine (benfotiamine), vitamin d3 and sucrosomial magnesium because what you describe is what she's going through... i'll be following up one way or the other... going to be extremely happy if it works or very let down if it doesn't.... we need a miracle.
I healed in 2 weeks my 15 years of imsomnia by waking up in the morning and taking natural light. The hipothalamus and the suprachiasmatic nucleu needs natural light in the morning, at least between 2000-3000 LUX penetrating into the eyes for 20 minutes everyday.
@@Qliphirot I've noticed coming back from a night shift work, that the morning light is relaxing when entering the eyes and right after I generally have a calmer sleep.

Thank You Elliot... Ive been dealing with what the doctors said looked like a slow progressive form of ALS... Slowly going down hill for more than 14 years, and all of the doctors did not help whatsoever... But when i saw another video of yours, I knew this had to be it... So I started fallowing your protocol, and it's working... I am so very greatful... Thank you so much Elliot... You are a life saver... ❤❤❤❤❤
Excellent description and suggestion to titrate B1 to activate enzymes in areas, IE the brain, for Parkinson's, so B1 can do it's job! I'm going to try this with one of my Parkinson's patients! Thank you! WONDERFUL DISCUSSION!
Many of us have developed serious B1 deficiencies especially after we quit eating wheat .We knew we had to quit eating wheat but we didn't know we needed to replace it with nutritional yeast not almond flour.
@@chrystale888 I would need to look into that claim because I don't know. But, if that is correct then all of us should be taking Thiamine supplementation.
I love active B6 - P5P !! It's just amazing ! The center of all protein/amino acid metabolism, the necessary factor for absorption of two crucial minerals zinc & magnesium, the enabler of a range of neurotransmitters & hormones, the essential factor for absorption of B12, the synergistic factor for vit C metabolism.....it's everywhere ! Lot of folks confuse B6 deficiency symptoms as B1 deficiency symptoms. Most of my autoimmune conditions got corrected with the active form of B6 - P5P including brain fog, hypochlorhydria, fatty liver, pancreatitis, sleep apnea and fibromyalgia. Its literally been a wonder B for me !

No more need for my wheelchair as I no longer have very slow walking movements. Did but B1 100mg twice in morning along with magnesium 250 mg twice in morning. It only took two days to get walking again with full stride. Try this on top of regular Parkinson’s medication no name mentioned and it will change your life. Thankyou
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s a little over two years ago. I began to get neuropathy in my right foot. Three of my outboard toes were cold and numb and the ankle was weakened. I began to take 100mg of B1 sublingually. It’s been five weeks and the improvement has been slow but I have only one toe that feels numb now. I heard that it takes at least six weeks to see results and that seems true. I take it in the morning.
@@snowyowl6892No, I watched another video that had Elliot, some woman from England and a Norwegian doctor. The woman had worked with an Italian doctor who has since passed away. This doctor had discovered that thiamine worked well with PD. There were 3 ways to get thiamine, a weekly shot, high diesel orally or sublingual tablets of 100mg. They talked a mount it taking 6-7 weeks before you started noticing g any difference. I started February 17th and it is now July as I write this. I no longer have pain in my ankle, my foot no longer feels cold or burning and only a slight numbness is apparent in two of my toes. Not actually a numbness but more of a “plump” feeling. My balance on that foot has improved tremendously. I can stand on my right foot, bend forward at the waist with outstretched arms and my left leg stretched out behind me for six breathes. This was impossible six months ago. This combined with red light therapy has made a tremendous difference in my symptoms. I’m going to be 68 next month and my symptoms are less than what they were when diagnosed with Parkinson’s three years ago.
I had a gallbladder attack(stabbing back pain after eating). And more recently my left eye lid was twitching nonstop for days. I took your advice. I took B1 pills and the twitching stopped within 10 minutes!

Learning about the vagus nerve and more specifically how to "contract" it voluntarily was the #1 thing that improved my symptoms of chronic fatigue, extreme heartburn, brain fog and just general nerve pain and dysfunction in multiple places in the body. I am now starting to try and improve my b1 intake through both natural and synthetic forms.
@@DB-fn3fz I didn't necessarily heal it just built a stronger connection with it. Theres the basic exercises like belly breathing that will activate it and you can probably just search CZcams for "how to activate vagus nerve". But for me its just being in touch with my emotions and listening to my body. Powerful and emotional music really does the trick for me. Id suggest looking at a lady here on CZcams named Irene Lyon.
I know 6 months have passed, but may I ask how you can purposely "contract" the vagus nerve specifically? I need to do that. I do the diaphram breath in, hold, breath out longer. But that's the only vagus nerve exercise I know, is this the one you mean?
Darn it. We were in a house that then got moldy. All sorts of problems started happening. All the docs said you guys are stressed. We were because of feeling ill. Not the opposite. That was 15 years ago. I'm just starting on B1 yesterday and feel good. But need to up the dose and see what happens. In winter my hands crack and heels. Cutting coffee out has cured that fast. 5 days. I'd love to keep on a little coffee. Some have said B1 can help again. We'll see. Thanks for these. We have a good friend with fibro and plan to send her these videos.
My doctor told me the same thing I told him that I was stressed, anxiety ridden from being ill from my exposure to mold, not the other way around He just wanted to put me on antidepressants. So frustrating. Maybe I’ll try b1.
I highly recommend fasting. one or two days to try. Then NAC, iodine, b1, b12, zinc. cold showers. win hoff breathing. Try all of these if they sound interesting. They help me. I've been cold showering for 5 month straight every day now. Even days i don't want to. It's anxiety easing. Or calming.@@serenity9299
EXACTLY right. Had pain in abdomen upper left side, extended and at time debilitating. Was 'diagnosed' with clogged SMA and a few other things... prayed... the Lord directed me... studied and did my own research... B1 (high dose Benfotiamine... BAM... symptoms GONE in 2-3 days... the entire field of medicine has gone of the rails and is failing us because it's blind spot (it virtually ignores) is natural healing and the importance of adequate intake of nutrients...
Hi I have pain in my upper left side stomach, under the rib...I have asked docs they said I was fine....but I wonder...? Should I try high dose Benfotiamine?
@@Sakuragaokaeibikoen I can't really say as I'm not a doc, but I had the same pain as you have and after the B1 600mg a day it stopped, now I only get stomach discomfort when I eat too soon after a previous meal (which I assume is indigestion), as long as I wait 3-4 hours before eating again I have no stomach pain. I'm also taking 1 tspn of nano silver and berberine 2x daily, and staying pretty much on the KETO diet and gobs of supplements, so I suspect that the regimen may be reducing plaque in arteries (including the SMA) also. Also might have been a nerve problem (autonomic, heart/stomach connection). All I know is that the B1 reduced the stomach symptoms markedly... hope that helps.
@@Sakuragaokaeibikoen One final note, B1 is certainly worth a try. Keep in mind also that the splenic flexure is in that general area also, and depending on individual physiology, blood flow and nerve function can be easily inhibited there... I say this because I noticed that the pain would tend to occur when food in the colon was moving through the transverse colon and rounding the corner to the descending colon. B1 is vital for the proper functioning of the colon also.
@@Sakuragaokaeibikoen take a whole food b-complex with the B1 (no synthetics), nutritional yeast is the best source of natural b-complex, also contains some trace minerals.
Oh dear! Exactly what I had for years! Dr shopped and was told “cronic fibromyalgia“. All ultrasounds came back clear. I walk around with two fingers stuffed in the ache. I did a drastic diet change abt 8 yrs ago, eliminating 90% of pre-made food, began a plant based diet eating 2 x a day. Huge daily salads ….using only cottage cheese as a dressing. I also began YouTubing and am now addicted! Valuable info…..I was hooked. Read article ‘s on the hidden poisons , additives , preservative in our foods and knew this was cause of all my health issues. Within a week or 2, all under rib pain gone! Within the next few years, with vital help from my CZcams doctors/teachers, tachycardia shortness of breath after eating out, ER visit where my sodium level dropped to 33 (should be in the 133-135 range. etc! I watched a Dr Berg video where he talked abt pain under his left rib cage which turned out to be pancreatitis. He nailed it! Bear with me, not a Dr. and paraphrasing “the tube running from stomach to pancreas was filled with crystals. …thus causing pain . Once I stopped eating so poorly and began a good supplemental routine…..I’m good to go another few years! 89 here I now know I was hugely, nutritionally deficient in just about everything! I don’t eat anything that is FORTIFIED with vitamins. From what I understand, this is just marketing tactic and food industries use the cheapest synthetic vit. poss. Dropped 50#s with out trying! Elliot and his guests have deffinately saved my life a few times……am so gratful.
I have no idea if this is related: This is pre Internet. I say this because finding information I could understand took time and dedication. My son when born had diarrhea causing rash so bad and prescribed ointments weren't helping... they couldn't circumcise (at 8 days) until 3 months later. (Pre disposable diaper which helps in keeping baby dry) At age 4 he would 'sneak' cake mix, was hidden half ate behind the couch and I considered a B deficiency ). Sleep issues and temper also. I spent years buying from co-ops, baking my own bread and organic health food stores hoping to see a difference in behavior. At 18 he is diagnosed with diabetes with differing thoughts if child or adult onset because of not following the norm (markers?). I still think today that this started with a nutritional deficiency at birth.
Can you tell me how you got diagnosed with b1 deficiency please, did you ask the doctor to test you, was it a blood test or a specific blood test, I need to know so I can see what is wrong with me cause I have no clue I'm taking b12 shots once a month, and taking vitamin d, magnesium once per every day??
This is unbelievable. Fluid retention, big time. Alternate day fasting didn’t affect my weight. Brain fog. Slightly depressed. Low energy (I usually needed to be stopped, before !). Thyroid issues that only temporarily improved with increasing dose. Sth else had to be going on because i’ve been taking a host of supplements for 4 months without much of a result. I started Benfotiamine 250 mg a week ago, worked up from 1/day to 3/day. All above improved dramatically within a week !! Just whaw !!
I think because I can't at this point get blood values, I'm chasing symptoms but my experience last summer when I could get early day sunshine on me, the combo of B1, turmeric, msm, magnesium and multi vit w B and chlorella. Worked pretty good lol. I had to back off mega D3 and the racing mind was better w chlorella and 100mg of B1 at night. Now, I don't use it hardly at all but pain is back. The city I'm in is known for the black mold. Chronic ebv. Just going to look fwd to Sun soon. Thank you both for your patience and dedication figuring this B1 thing out...
I am so glad that i stumbled across your channel. I have been trying to get a diagnosis to what has been ailing me for a long time now. I was diagnosed with Giant Cell Arteritis 3 years ago and have been trying to get pff the high steroids ever since. I now have Cushing's Syndrome form this endeavor and they don't think its GCA that is the cause now as my pain never truly went away. On top of that they diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. Lol. There has been pain in my whole body for years now and i think you may have touched on this briefly as to why. I was given Levaquin in 2008 for a bad infection (a fluriqinolone which is absolutely toxic to your nevous system and mitochondria) and has the most severe reaction to this medication that almost killed me. Severe neuropathy all over my body and brain, heart and lungs, etc. It took me a very very long time to get back on my feet. (There has been a big law suit in the US regarding these medications). I know that my system now has been damaged to the point that is no longer functioning. I have many digestive issues and my brain has not been functioning properly for a long time. I have spent my life savings on trying to get a definitive diagnosis and i think that i can see a lot of the symptoms of what has happened to my body in this broadcast and a few of your others. I have ordered B1 100mg and intend to try the sliw approach to a mega dose. I have nothing to lose. The problem is, how quickly i can get to the megadose? If anyone can chip in here, i would be most grateful.
So, I've been taking Benfotiamine for about a week with a bunch of other great things and have noticed no results. I came across this idea of high-dose B1 today and decided to try it. I feel like me again, it's amazing. I'm not saying I'm cured because it's only been one day and I'm sure after years of illness it'll take time to build myself up again but now I at least have the energy to try to get well again.
IBS, SIBO, GERD, BAM, peripheral neuropathy, fatigue, depression, anxiety and other issues all improved for me with Benfotiamine. I wanted to die before this treatment.

Hi! do a video about thiamine in regards to the immunity like how it affects immunity since this vitamin has so many roles such as activating B6 which is also an antioxidant and since gut is 80 per cent of the immunity and B1 helps gut motility, bile flow, stomach acid etc.
Awesome interview! Thank you for the in depth information you have shared here. Elliot, you're doing such an amazing work. I didn't know much about B1 until I came across your videos and I'm blown away the miraculous effects it has on a human body.
I have L4 L5 Degenerate disk's and I have hard time with Neuropathy Last month when to my neighborhood Whole Foods, brought B1 100mg I did consume 1 pill what happen in 1 hour felt a total pain relieve also the Euphoria was noticeable. Since then I split to 3 doses my pain is reduced to a minimum. Still I keep daily taken no more than 300mg. Afterall I realize major deficiency despite I was never in to alcohol still is a major blow up.
Oh my. Took some benfotiamin this morning and I feel so calm now. I might have been in a chronic flight or fight mode that prevented my healing. Can't wait tonight to sleep and hopefully get some rest and healing.
Thank you Elliot, for sharing your wisdom, compassion and extensive research! Learning so much. Will stick with you on this healing journey! God bless you!! 🙏🏼💖
Great talk on B1! For those dealing with constipation Or diarrhea, high blood sugar levels, and many other symptoms. There is a great study done about consumption of cooked green bananas daily can great improve those symptoms. Green bananas feed gut bacteria that produce butyrate, glutathione and correcting neurotransmitters dysregulation. Bananas must be very green and didn't went to a process to speed up maturation. If can't find available, the green bananas flour cooked just like oatmeal does the job.
@@KT-ed8hj if you have a cooker pression, let the water start to boil then add the bananas, let it cook for 7 to 8 minutes with the skin on. It peels much easier. Put in the blender with warm water or in a food processor add less water if food processor MORE water if use a blender. The consistently will be like a thinner mush potatoes or if can eat just like cooked patatoes. If blended last 3 days in fridge or couple months in freezer ( must add more water over heat to bring back the consistency) or cook the flour of it just like oatmeal.

You have helped me tremendously. My daughter let me know that we can o d on b1 which made me realise that it had served its purpose, strengthened me and was now giving me negative symptoms re. Throat discomfort and climbing stairs which has now improved since stopping. I still believe your advice saved my health, thankyou.
Even I had constant fatigue, intolerance to carbs and legumes, braing fog and megadosing thiamine has almost taken away all my symtoms. Thank you elliot for bringing such information and helping people who aren't debilitatingly sick enough to get treated by allopathy and not healthy enough to perform basic tasks to live a normal life. I want to help my father with his diabetes too, and can you please tell how to repair damaged mitochondria? he's 51, and very likely to have it. He may not be able to do prolonged fasting, red light therapy may help a little, but I need your insights to do it in the most effective way. Also will you look into the phenomenon of mitophagy?
Namaste Prakriti ji. Im having same Issue. intolerance to gluten and dairy. Grateful if you could please elaborate on the dose you were taking per day and for how long. Thank you.
although I rushed it, but later regretted as I got severe paradoxical reactions, in form of heart palpitations and anxiety. Go slow, start with 50-100mg of benfotiamine, wait till your symtoms improve, supplement with other nutrients as well. Increase your dose to 200mg, wait for symtoms to get better and repeat it till you get satisfying results. It almost takes a week at a time for symtoms to get better. I used Elliot's protocol to guide myself through that. You may also take small doses of ttfd or sulbutamine for improving thiamine status in brain. Also rule out fatigue due to other reasons, like b6 deficiency. Some people may have polymorphisms where lots of stress or certain medications deplete b6. They can also cause depression/anxiety, pms, histamine intolerance, unstable blood sugars etc. Do your research!
Herkheimer Response is the term for the fact that a person feels worse before feeling better/before realizing improved health state when using natural remedies.
@dragonstaye4557, it’s actually Herxheimer reaction, noted by Dr Herxheimer. My family & I all had a reaction after treating ourselves with oregano oil for mold sickness. We got very sick. The oregano oil causes a great detox, but I didn’t know then that we should have been taking a binder (like coconut charcoal or bentonite clay) opposite time of the oregano oil. 😊
24:05 is exactly what I'm currently dealing with! Elliott's knowledge has definitely been detrimental to trying to kickstart my body back to healing itself.
Yes I’ve been following the commonly accepted philosophy that it’s all about the gut / microbiome / etc. & have been puzzled as to why quaffing kefir has been of limited value to the numerous health issues I’ve been dealing with. I’m enjoying learning & researching the fresh information that you are providing & hope I will be able to take & tolerate some form of thiamine, to achieve some much needed improvements in my overall health 🙏💕🌟🕊
I am 35 years old ..post 1 year of covid i suffer with massive fatigue daily..lots of burping..gerd..anxiety..pots..muscle weekness..brain fog...shortness of breath...took so many suppliments but nothing helped...at last tried my wife high dose vitamin b 1 around 200mg per day and kabooom within 3 days all symptoms gone..black seed oil healed all my inflamation...and now i take nutritional yeast + allithiamine vit b1 + vit b complex + vit d vit c magnesium omega 3..and the brain energy boosters like lions mane + huperizine A...oh wow...soo good..mainly stop eating carbs n sweets bcs it will suck out your vit b1 alot....i am a medical doctor by the way..modern medicine sucks..
Can you please share names of brands and doses? I am 34 and just after covid I got the same. I hope you check this reply. I see your comment dates back to a year ago. Wishing you good health.

My wrist/thumb were extremely painful and becoming deformed. Osteoarthritis they said. I can’t take steroids. Anyway I started taking allithiamine for a lot of things including air hunger and leg and feet swelling. My wrist and thumb stopped popping and all pain there is gone. I can even use it. It is weaker and looks different, but works. Regular thiamine does work for me so I use the allithiamine form. I learned so much from reading Dr. Derrick Londsdale’s info at Hormones Matter. He is retired, but was still taking questions. A lot of essential information.
I was taking vitamin B12 but I was not taking vitamin B complex and now I'm doing all kinds of research and found out okay what is a dosage okay you get vitamin B complex but we are not knowing what the dosages are in this vitamin B complex because as we get older we need to hire dosage of vitamins I'm still trying to heal myself because these doctors are not doing good of a job this is why now I'm watching your video
Brilliant video! I’m a recovering AUD! I have to take thiamine, 100mg twice a day. It horrible, smells bad but the benefits are incredible. Pabrinex is an IV version of thiamin (plus other vitamins) which is also greatI I call it sunshine juice, cos it’s bright yellow! I have a medical condition which stops me from absorbing B1 from food. I suffer from spontaneous paralysis in the legs. I’ve been taken to hospital in an ambulance so many times after loosing feeling in my legs! It’s awful! I also take PPI. It’s a vicious circle! I’m still waiting for an appointment with neurology. Been waiting 3 months now 🏴
Oh my gosh.. same problem! What is your diagnosis!? I am comt super slow. And MTHFR and a lot of other genetic funk. I’m trying so hard to flip my genes and get my system to calm down. Terrifying when my legs have no feeling and I can’t move. Tremors and eventually, seizures. I’m starting thiamine, now.
@@TheMiriam333 The hardest thing is the paralysis. It happens anywhere. Complete strangers having to help me, it in a supermarket, in the shower. My GP said it’s a nerve issue called neuropathy. The hardest thing I’ve recently dealt with are hallucinations. Full on conversations with family who weren’t there! Had awful ones too. I’m getting support now,so fingers crossed there’s light at the end of the tunnel! Sending you best wishes and good luck 👍
@@TheMiriam333 Your situation mirrors mine the letter! Hallucinations were horrendous, My legs have given way in supermarkets, in the street with stranger’s having to help me! It’s so embarrassing! My dr said its neuropathy, stick at and accept all the help you can get ❣️
I'm the case where you need to ramp slowly. I started taking 150mg benfotiamine with TMG and noticed it drove my HRV up...but after awhile my kidneys were in a lot of pain. I am heavy metal toxic so I think it perhaps pushed too much through my kidneys. I have to detox the metals very slowly. I backed off and now I take it about twice a week and hope to ramp up to higher doses over time. Its like clockwork how it improves my HRV though! Its quite encouraging.
@@nageshnimbalkar4091 When a person has heavy metal toxicity it can ruin the kidneys (& liver). Kidneys are much harder to detox by way of their design. Pain for me is probably stones and inflammation which I'm working to heal and detox naturally. But you can't detox too quickly....Water fasting has been the most effective.
Thanks for the video. Great insight about thiamine's role in so many functions that are critical for health. Definitely want to try TTFD now. My only complain is the biohacker guy in white shirt kept interrupting Elliot which was incredibly annoying. It's ok to ask questions or clarify but it seemed like he can't stop talking about himself.
I agree, it was amazing information, but the interruptions were unbearable. Many times they happened right when he was building up to a main point. 😐I could listen to Elliot all day! 😊
I was taking Benfotaimine and supplementing with potassium and magnesium until I received my order from Elliot’s Objective Nutrients. (I wanted the purest and most potent supplements designed by Elliot) I was experiencing some positive effects but still experiencing issues until my first dose of Elliot’s protocol products. Just the first dose of Elliot’s- WoW, the morning after, I see miraculous results! I was right, the purest and well designed dose and elements is a game changer!!! Thank you so much ELLIOT! Sincerely Grateful to You🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Brenda from JAPAN 🇯🇵
I wake up every morning with lower abdominal pain. I did have trace blood in my urine a few times over the past few years. I had a scan a few years ago when I had a little blood and nothing showed. I sometimes feel like I have been run over, beat up, and have a very heavy feeling when I wake up. I usually feel better later. The most odd thing is, when I go to sleep lately, I feel a sudden panic and at times I feel a sense of doom like I’m about to die. I lay there and cannot relax. Ive had anxiety over the years but not at a specific time. It’s always when I lay down to go to sleep and that’s it. I’ve never had that in my life. Also my ears will ring sometimes as well. It’s all very strange. I took Blue Bonnet B1 for 3 days and noticed during the day after I take it I feel really good and have a light feeling inside for hours. However, I’m still having the panic feeling when I go to bed, and I’m still having a little of the pain in the morning when I wake up. I’m probably dying. Anyway, I don’t know if I should take more of the B1 because with the 1 capsule I feel really good when I take it. I don’t trust regular doctors because they use poisons in my opinion such as chemo for cancer patients. I’ve watched several people I cared about die after putting all their trust in doctors. Anyway it’s really awful.
I was feeling like this on and off a few months ago. That dying feeling waking up panicking but I’m glad it subsided and I’ve been trying to make heal my body naturally with supplements just started taking the b1 and berberine. Do you have high blood sugar issues? Just curious..
I went to a specialist because of severe back pain. In the consultation I was asked if iv ever checked my vit D levels . Had test done, mine was very low, I was given a very high dose for 10 days, afterwards a lower daily dose. Do your research on D and back pain.
It's too bad that you don't offer this (Thiamine Dosing Protocols ) information to those of us who purchase your supplements. 59 euros. :(( . Great money maker you have going for you. Great salesman.
The bottle doesn’t say the dosing? They’ve addressed dosing….but they have to be careful what they say because of the legal liability the system has in place for natural remedies …..they’re stating to start out slow with a smaller dose…the dose recommended on the bottle and then up the dose after a week until the symptoms u have been having start to go away….$59 compared to big pharma prices …..who is selling what? Doctors? Or this guy? Doctors sell u poison in pill form and ur happy with that? But bent out of shape over buying B1 supplements that actually help ur system regardless…🤦♀️ perhaps it’s best u stick with man’s cure for everything and leave the natural God given remedies to those who have patience and understand they’ve been investing poison everyday for decades and now have to have patience while the body cleans and heals itself…the only magic pills is the one that ends all suffering….and life …
Hello sir i you read this pls reply. I have been facing lots of symptoms like sudden shortness of breath. Gut issues.anxiety racing thoughts. Nerve issues. Low energy. Fatigue. But every test normal. Only b12 and vitamin d is low. I went to doctor they gave me anti depressants.i torn their receipt and came back and found you.
I had the same issue since 2019 no allopathy Dr could find atlast my native medicine Tamil science found out I have nerves damage feels much better getting treatment from him in India, advice you to take b12 magnesium all the victims via food do Surya namaskar exercise 3 times a day see the changes
I think i developed vagus issues from vaping, severe stress/abuse and poor diet. I passed out, dizzy when standing, blood sugar issues, vertigo, gate issues, low blood pressure, anxiety, paranoia, panic attacks, dizziness, no feeling on my skin, depersonalization, sound sensitive and depression.
Best to leave Processed food carbs and sugar out of your diet. The Western food industry are owned by the same people who own the pharmaceutical industry. I do have one question, as Benfotiamine is lab created likened to thiamine hydrochloride, does it contain aluminum likened to thiamine hydrochloride?
I started taking B 1 Allithiamine from Dr. Berg. He has a CZcams channel and a shop. Anyway it’s not even been a week and I feel a huge difference. I don’t even have to think about walking hardly at all anymore and it feels so normal now. I also feel like I can breathe easily all the time now, too. It’s only been one week, and I’m feeling much better already. I’m excited. Thank you God. I just happened to see a random video about a guy with severe problems that took B 1 and went from skin and bones to looking these guys in TWO months! Without doing anything AT ALL except take a tiny dose of TTFD. Insane
@@laquerisma Well, I’ve only been taking it for a little over a week, so I may not have taken it long enough to experience that. But, on the plus side, I can say I definitely don’t smell like 🧄 lol Also, I’ve noticed my muscles have grown in my legs a bit just from walking🦵 I feel much more stable when I stand and walk. My neck still hurts a tiny bit, but the tension and pain are almost gone already. I really can’t believe it’s only been a week… God’s answering my prayers in ways I was definitely not expecting.
Thank you so much for all the fantastic and interesting information in this video! Doctors always told me my levels were “just fine”. But actually there may be a deficiency already. Would you say that’s correct? So many of us are trying countless remedies, all in vain. So it might be worth getting deeper into reading vitamin levels correctly and then act upon it.
Took benfotiamine twice this past week...ended up in the ER twice. 2nd one raised my heart rate up to 183, faint, sweating, blurred vision, shortness of breath, severe syncope. Thought that was it for me and I was going to pass away in front of my mother. Got admitted into the hospital. They ran all kinds of tests only to find that I was perfectly fine would the exception of my heart enzymes quadrupling from the rate spike which is extremely dangerous but it decreased later which is a good sign. What am I doing wrong? These paradoxical events were the scariest things I've ever experienced. Everything you described I suffer from. Gastroparesis, severe gerd, brain fog from long covid, etc.
In past Ive tried Benfotiamine and 2 other types of B1 & triggers migraines. Got treated for SIBO and have taken B1 Hydrochloride 300mg for 3 weeks and no migraines. But I'm afraid to try the BENFOTIAMINE again and especially after reading what it did to you. How scary for you!! I hope the presenter answers your question Why. It could also be a filler issue or a defective lot and a manufacturer issue. I had a bad lot of doctors choice B Complex where they dumped too much niacin in it and the Amazon reviews showed many others had same symptoms as myself. Update 1 month later: 1st tried 300mg day then 600 mg day and after 1 month on Befotiamine on 900mg day. More migraines but not convinced its directly causal to Benfotiamine. Taking 125mg molybdenum to decrease my Sulphur Intolerance which my theory is why I could never take Thiamine without triggering migraines prior. I feel I may not have fully gotten rid of sibo as Oliver educates SIBO causes Sulphur Intolerance. My question for Oliver is 1) It it a mistake to take Probiotics if have SIBO? Or wait until Sibo treated?
Hello @EONutrition, I have started TTFD (Thiamax) & Benfotiamine high dose 3 weeks back. In initial few days (1 week) I received good results but following 2 weeks there is no improvement in my chronic fatigue, IBS C, pain, mold/ VOC toxicity, brain fog, CIRS & other symptoms. I am suffering from these symptoms for past 5 years. Is it normal to make recovery & then wean off? How long it might take to stabilize the progress? I am taking CDP Choline & B5 for IBS C, as suggested in one of your videos. Should stop it & only take B1 with Magnesium & B Complex? Grateful to you for all your efforts & help. At least there is some ray of hope after extremely painful life of 5 years. Thanks again!
So mega dose B1 to Jumpstart the enzymes factory ...sometimes I thought taking a multivitamin that has B1 would take care of that...but it's like a car battery...it needs that initial jump start to get started
Interesting info about gut motility, vagus nerve, high dosing B1 Prokinetic motility responds from TTFD can penetrate thru cellular toxins Benefits Chronic illness or chronic fatigue Stimulates dopamine and serotonin helps sleep Regulates fight or flight response is Very Interesting *
Tell us more about the unwanted symptoms of megadosing B1. I've been trying to take 100mg TTFD but it doesn't sit well with me, I develop a persistent pain in one side of my throat not to mention a persistent horrible metalic chemical tatse/smell sensation. (TTFD is from you btw) I'm now taking 1/3 of a cap daily so 30mg or so and I don't get the above symptoms. My plan is to increase my dose in a few weeks. Reasons for me taking B1 are many; Lifetime of gut immotility/POTS/poor circulation/reynaulds/low HCL (I also take multi-vit/magnesuim/potassium/molybdenum/b12/LipoGlutathione/Betaine HCL/ACV/Digestive Enzymes) I also drink electrolite drink daily.
@@EONutrition Thanks, forgot to add I have been taking Lipo G for over a year now too (take so many things every day I forget the list) I'll watch this vid again and see if I have missed something, perhaps the methionine/choline etc would help.
What you are talking about is the Triage Theory of Dr Ames of Children's Hospital California. According to this theory the body always gives priority in the use of nutrient to the process(s) most likely to cause imminent death if they are undersupplied and do so at the expense of those involved in general health or function. This is why most research that determines nutrient needs by measuring overt deficiency effects do not result in optimum levels which vary by individual depending on age and state of health.
I have chronic fatigue & hyperthyroidism. I'm in a constant state of stress/ anxiety. My heart, joints, cognition & eyesight now seem to be affected. My brain feels very strange indeed, it's hard to think & it feels like a volcano is off in my head all the time. Also noticed twitches & nervous system problems. I made it to Holland & Barrett to buy B1. I've started it today. I have some hope now. Btw- what is ttfd? I have just ordered Benfotiamine. Thank you
Look into live blood cell analysis. Use the search engine duck duck go & your nearest location. Might be a systemic infection. Even if it’s leaky gut you’ll be able to see it. Some Functional medicine doctors, some naturopaths & chiropractors offer this kind of testing typically for under $100
@@Kerry-ft2zf no worries. I never want to see anyone suffer like I did. It’s sometimes hard to test for these things. For me it was a literal life saver, I wish more people knew about it ❤️
If it is Lyme take pictures as most medical doctors don’t utilize this method. If you have low immune cells and don’t test positive for antibodies it’s just an endless chase. Ten pass ozone knocked it out for me with naturopathic doctors down in usa I’m in Canada it’s illegal here. I was 70lbs on my death bed and told it was my fault I was anorexic meanwhile I had intestinal paralysis (& remains 7 years later) sepsis as a result etc. Those two things. Live blood cell analysis & 10 pass ozone. Best of luck. Also if you want to do mold testing. The company Dutch. Does urine testing & can be ordered on your own & done at home. They also test for comprehensive hormones. My adrenals were flat lined for years testing with metabolites where blood said i was normal because each blood draw I was stressed. Live & learn
What about Benfotiamine? The fat soluble form. Wouldn't this be better since B vitamins get washed out so quickly? I take the liquid form and hold it under my tongue for a minute.
Intractable pain patient here. 11 years and 2 back surgeries later I'm so much worse than I was before.. body being crushed by muscles from my lower back to my feet.. burned alive and electuted 24/7.. muscles are like concrete. Can't stand/ walk, lift, push,pull, can't straighten my knees out. Muscles won't let me 🥺😭
Btw, I had SIBO twice in one year then again just before I started meat heavy keto. I didn’t need to take the antibiotic Xifaxcin to get rid of it. In ten days, I had no more problems. Had GERD as well and had been on Protonix for 3 years at an increased 2 X a day dose. I didn’t need that anymore either. Been almost 5 years and no longer suffering from those things.
I didn't have a solid stool for over 3 years had so many samples and blood tests all came back normal. Doctor said it's probably chronic fatigue syndrome I was drinking heavy for a few years ended up in detox to get of the alcahol and they gave me thiamine and within a week My bowel movements had gone back to normal and I have so much more energy. I just don't no why doctors couldn't figure it out I am so happy after 3 years of worrying.
Can I continue to stay on thiamine? I'm so glad I found it.

What Elliot is saying 100% right… I have chronic digestive issues, recently (6-7 weeks ago) started loosing appetite which led to sudden weight loss.. went to see GI doctor who suggested let’s do another second colonoscopy and endoscopy which is lierally within 13 months since I first diagnosed.. this video was god sent for me… I followed the advice provided in this video… it was my 4th regular dose of 250gm Thiamine, Magensium with B6 and B complex( not a mega dose), with tiny ginger in my meals.. I was hungry on 5th day and started recovering… doctors have no clue they just want to put their gadgets and medicines in your body without understanding your underlying issues! Thank you
I can attest for the validity of this video. I got terribly sick slowly over the years after a lot of stress and some viral infections. I didn't even bother going to the doctor because I knew my complaints were too diverse to even get a proper diagnosis. Extreme nausea, chronic fatigue, insomnia, chronic anxiety, poor immune system; no chance a doctor was going to say "You're deficient in B1". So I one day I stumbled upon a video which recommended B1 for fatigue. I decided to start with 250mg Thiamine HCL , 600mg Magnesium and 1.5g of Potassium and I've been improving day by day ever since. I hardly have any complaints any more after a couple of weeks. It really is a miracle "drug" in this context and almost nobody seems to know about it.
Yep, thats why I talk about it so often
I hope you have continued to improve I'm hopeful
Hi Elliot, I'm Fausto from italy, I had intestinal problems with SIBO, hypochlorhydria, for 2 years, your disclosure for high doses of thiamine saved my life and for that I will always be grateful ! Thanks !
what form u use?
@@wandaikhwan536 benfothiamine
Elliot a question, when I eat eggs I get canker sores in my mouth, could there be a vitamin deficiency for this problem too? thanks
@@fausto1688what dose
Hi. What's the highdose range for thiamine/benfothiamine?
Thank you for tipping me off to this, Elliot. I began the high dose thiamine about a year ago and my life has changed. I've suffered from CONSTANT tiny muscle spasms (I describe them as vibrations) for decades. It's not like the classic (dramatic) Charlie Horse. The muscles will just keep 'shivering' for hours and hours. It's like a workout and lactic acid builds up, but I never get time for a recovery.
The thiamine works where nothing any doctor has prescribed has. I'm able to fall asleep much easier without being tortured for hours before I'm so exhausted I fall asleep despite the pain. Now, it's just gone. If I miss a day or two, the shakes come back. I take 2000 mg every single day, sometimes twice a day.
I introduced my daughter to thiamine and had to nag her for months before she became desperate enough to try it, and boom. Now she's just as devoted to her daily dose as I am. She's told her friends about it and the results are amazing. One older lady she's friends with is an alcoholic and this vitamin saved her. Two others have other chronic illnesses and they describe high dose thiamine as a miracle. No, it doesn't 'cure' everything, but it makes SUCH a difference that it's worth sticking with.
If it weren't for you, I'd still be suffering to this day. And so would many other people. I deeply appreciate your devotion to understanding human health.
Do you use thiamine HCL or a different form of thiamine
Hey. What form of thiamine did you use?
I'm so grateful for the enlightenment, I now have hope for the future too.
This is so true! Doctors don't routinely check vitamin levels and they have a great deal to do with our health! If you have any type of immune condition it will often keep your vitamins depleted. There are thousands of people needlessly suffering and paying thousands to doctors when they just need to know their vitamin levels, and various vitamins affect many systems in the body. Doctors need to take massive nutrition courses along with their other studies in order to properly treat people. For many people this is an easy fix, but the health industry is reluctant, why is this...could it be $$$$?
2g of thiamine HCl ?? Is that what you take ? Thanks for sharing
I have a very specific B1 story. A few years ago I was exposed to flea and tick poison accidentally while putting a new flea and tick collar on my dog. I had a very small cut on the tip of my index finger and the poison made it's way into my body. The next day my hand was starting to feel numb, and this numbness worked its way up my arm, face, and right side, and both feet over several days. I had convinced myself that I was going to go to the doctor if I didn't feel better in the morning. The next morning the problem began to recede. I probably should have seen a poison specialist but I decided not to. Over the next week or so the feeling returned, but I had some burning and tingling, and also some feeling of weakness on my right side. Sometimes my right foot hurt in a strange way, especially when walking. Over a year or so, the problem got a little better but never really went away. Then I was researching Thiamine (I've been into nutrition for a few years now) and more specifically I read about sulbutiamine, that it is good for treating neuropathic issues. I ordered a bottle of this and megadosed for a few days. The problem resolved! I decided to reduce the dose to twice the recommended amount. Now it has been a couple of years and I have been doing well. I take the sulbutiamine every day. I also have a friend who recently came down with Bells Palsy shortly after getting the covid vaccine. I gave her a bottle of sulbutiamine and told her to take a double dose for a week and then the recommended dose after. She came up to me in church a couple of weeks later and thanked me. She told me that the Bells Palsy resolved quickly after taking the sulbutiamine. It really is amazing, and very encouraging to see that we can help each other in this way.
It's worth adding that I don't take the sulbutiamine by itself which would probably be a bad idea long term. I also take a high quality B complex, magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin A (that's a whole other story), vitamin K2, selenium, bovine thyroid, and other nutritional supplements, and I avoid seed oils and wheat (but I do eat spelt, which is a more traditional non-GMO form of wheat).
Anyways, thanks Elliot and God bless you.
This is why I never put flea treatment on my cats, it’s highly toxic and I believe is one of the main reason why my cats lived until nearly 22. The vets said they never see cats this old anymore.

How much sulbathiamine do u recommend for Bell's palsy
@@jsj047 I can only say what I told my friend to try. I recommended she double up (400mg) daily for a week and then take 200mg daily after that. She came back to me two weeks later and told me her symptoms resolved. Your own experience may differ. Remember that this is a fat soluble vitamin, so take it with food. For my own neuropathy I took 1000mg daily for a week, and that made it almost completely resolved. I keep taking it regularly.
Can I just say I LOVE YOU! This is exactly what has been happening to me! I’ve been to my PCP, an Endocrinologist, a cardiologist and a Functional doctor. None of them have been able to help me! My functional doctor did mention circulation and vagus nerve issue, but none have been able to connect all the issues together. I was so hopeless because I’ve never had any health problems my entire life and I hit 40 and all this stuff started happening. I kept being told “it’s due to stress”.

“Leaky gut” often is low glutamine levels due to chronic stress and illness. The body will prioritize using glutamine for stress hormones and neurotransmitters, and that leaves not enough for intestinal repair. Glutamine is the main amino acid in the production of smooth muscles cells in the guy. So the body cannot repair itself. Glutamine becomes conditionally essential in times of stress or some people end up with “leaky gut”
I needed much more than that after a recent setback. With Glutamine, I have added Artemisinin, Butyrate, and Saccharomyces Boulardii. I think I will add Thaimine also. My diet has been Paleo with a small amount of vegetables for over a year. These things are working so far. I have also lost 150 lbs.

I am experiencing paradoxical reactions even with a low dosage of 25 mg of benfotiamine, as all my reflux symptoms reappear. Could this indicate a significant depletion of thiamine in my system?
My sudden onset peripheral neuropathy symptoms were…chilblains with ulcers, Raynauds syndrome in my fingers (but not thumbs), double resting pulse rate, profuse sweating under arms and groin due to core heat not being dissipated efficiently, serious brain fog, blue nose and ears, very low tolerance to cold.
My doctor was absolutely clueless, said “just one of those things that happen “ 😳. Had to do my own research.
I took benfotiamine and alpha lipoic acid…this was before I heard of TTFD. Benfotiamine almost cured my symptoms…80%.. now Raynauds is only triggered in extreme cold, all other symptoms are virtually gone. Just my right middle finger often feels cold. It took about 6 months to recover to 80%.
If your diet consists of mainly processed foods, you can pretty much guarantee you are thiamine deficient.
Why exactly does that happen with processed foods and b1?
@@Matt-fq6ly the thiamine added to processed foods are poorly absorbed by the body. It is usually thiamine mono nitrate or thiamine hydrochloride, which have a maximum absorption rate of about 5% in a healthy person, less if they have gut issues. Also eating a processed food diet is more likely to cause gut and absorption problems in the first place, such as reflux, acidity issues affecting the absorption of other vitamins and minerals, and the use of artificial vitamins and minerals that the body can’t use.

I can't thank you enough. I've had severe back spasms for years, no meds help, Osteopath can't find the cause. Yesterday I took a mega dose of B1 as I was in agony rolling around on the floor things were so bad. Within 2 hours all pain had gone so I went for a walk, later the spasm pain began to build up again so I took another high dose, again the pain melted away. This is something huge which I intend to persue. Thank you so, so very much.
How many doses required?

I have had life long insomnia, started B1 about a week ago I already feel like I dont wake up as much at night
How much dosage are you taking?
I healed in 2 weeks my 15 years of imsomnia by waking up in the morning and taking natural light. The hipothalamus and the suprachiasmatic nucleu needs natural light in the morning, at least between 2000-3000 LUX penetrating into the eyes for 20 minutes everyday.
@@Qliphirot I've noticed coming back from a night shift work, that the morning light is relaxing when entering the eyes and right after I generally have a calmer sleep.
When do you take your B1; I have terrible insomnia! I’m on 2 benzodiazepines & still only get 4-5 hrs; plus unisom.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank You Elliot... Ive been dealing with what the doctors said looked like a slow progressive form of ALS...

Excellent description and suggestion to titrate B1 to activate enzymes in areas, IE the brain, for Parkinson's, so B1 can do it's job! I'm going to try this with one of my Parkinson's patients! Thank you!
WONDERFUL DISCUSSION!
Let us know how it worked out for your patient?
Many of us have developed serious B1 deficiencies especially after we quit eating wheat .We knew we had to quit eating wheat but we didn't know we needed to replace it with nutritional yeast not almond flour.
Is it the case that Keto or carnivore dieters must eat nutritional yeast to get enough Thiamine?
@@andreas956 Everyone is not getting enough thiamine regardless of what you eat case the vitamin is water soluble.
@@chrystale888 I would need to look into that claim because I don't know.
But, if that is correct then all of us should be taking Thiamine supplementation.
Excellent Info for those avoiding wheat, gluten must increase B1 intake *
@@andreas956 The reduction in carbs helps bring down the requirements for B1, but I think for many not enough.
I love active B6 - P5P !! It's just amazing !
The center of all protein/amino acid metabolism, the necessary factor for absorption of two crucial minerals zinc & magnesium, the enabler of a range of neurotransmitters & hormones, the essential factor for absorption of B12, the synergistic factor for vit C metabolism.....it's everywhere !
Lot of folks confuse B6 deficiency symptoms as B1 deficiency symptoms.
Most of my autoimmune conditions got corrected with the active form of B6 - P5P including brain fog, hypochlorhydria, fatty liver, pancreatitis, sleep apnea and fibromyalgia. Its literally been a wonder B for me !

I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s a little over two years ago. I began to get neuropathy in my right foot. Three of my outboard toes were cold and numb and the ankle was weakened. I began to take 100mg of B1 sublingually. It’s been five weeks and the improvement has been slow but I have only one toe that feels numb now. I heard that it takes at least six weeks to see results and that seems true. I take it in the morning.
Wowww that's so amazing I am happy for you dear , did you take thiamine HCL
Maybe you should take less
How’s it going now?
Did Elliot suggest “sub lingual” ?
@@snowyowl6892No, I watched another video that had Elliot, some woman from England and a Norwegian doctor. The woman had worked with an Italian doctor who has since passed away. This doctor had discovered that thiamine worked well with PD. There were 3 ways to get thiamine, a weekly shot, high diesel orally or sublingual tablets of 100mg. They talked a mount it taking 6-7 weeks before you started noticing g any difference. I started February 17th and it is now July as I write this. I no longer have pain in my ankle, my foot no longer feels cold or burning and only a slight numbness is apparent in two of my toes. Not actually a numbness but more of a “plump” feeling. My balance on that foot has improved tremendously. I can stand on my right foot, bend forward at the waist with outstretched arms and my left leg stretched out behind me for six breathes. This was impossible six months ago. This combined with red light therapy has made a tremendous difference in my symptoms. I’m going to be 68 next month and my symptoms are less than what they were when diagnosed with Parkinson’s three years ago.
I love hearing you discuss this! Thiamine is MANDATORY for your body to manufacture HCl/Hydrochloric acid!

Learning about the vagus nerve and more specifically how to "contract" it voluntarily was the #1 thing that improved my symptoms of chronic fatigue, extreme heartburn, brain fog and just general nerve pain and dysfunction in multiple places in the body. I am now starting to try and improve my b1 intake through both natural and synthetic forms.
What were some of the other things you've done to heal your vagus nerve? Asking for myself
@@DB-fn3fz I didn't necessarily heal it just built a stronger connection with it. Theres the basic exercises like belly breathing that will activate it and you can probably just search CZcams for "how to activate vagus nerve". But for me its just being in touch with my emotions and listening to my body. Powerful and emotional music really does the trick for me. Id suggest looking at a lady here on CZcams named Irene Lyon.
@@colineccles5102 thanks for the advice
@@DB-fn3fz I wd like to know also 🙏🏻
I know 6 months have passed, but may I ask how you can purposely "contract" the vagus nerve specifically? I need to do that. I do the diaphram breath in, hold, breath out longer. But that's the only vagus nerve exercise I know, is this the one you mean?
Fascinating talk. I cannot believe your channel is not more well known! I will share it far and wide. Thank you for your expertise🙏🏼
Darn it. We were in a house that then got moldy. All sorts of problems started happening. All the docs said you guys are stressed. We were because of feeling ill. Not the opposite. That was 15 years ago. I'm just starting on B1 yesterday and feel good. But need to up the dose and see what happens. In winter my hands crack and heels. Cutting coffee out has cured that fast. 5 days. I'd love to keep on a little coffee. Some have said B1 can help again. We'll see. Thanks for these. We have a good friend with fibro and plan to send her these videos.
My doctor told me the same thing I told him that I was stressed, anxiety ridden from being ill from my exposure to mold, not the other way around He just wanted to put me on antidepressants. So frustrating. Maybe I’ll try b1.
I highly recommend fasting. one or two days to try. Then NAC, iodine, b1, b12, zinc. cold showers. win hoff breathing. Try all of these if they sound interesting. They help me. I've been cold showering for 5 month straight every day now. Even days i don't want to. It's anxiety easing. Or calming.@@serenity9299

EXACTLY right. Had pain in abdomen upper left side, extended and at time debilitating. Was 'diagnosed' with clogged SMA and a few other things... prayed... the Lord directed me... studied and did my own research... B1 (high dose Benfotiamine... BAM... symptoms GONE in 2-3 days... the entire field of medicine has gone of the rails and is failing us because it's blind spot (it virtually ignores) is natural healing and the importance of adequate intake of nutrients...
Hi I have pain in my upper left side stomach, under the rib...I have asked docs they said I was fine....but I wonder...? Should I try high dose Benfotiamine?
@@Sakuragaokaeibikoen I can't really say as I'm not a doc, but I had the same pain as you have and after the B1 600mg a day it stopped, now I only get stomach discomfort when I eat too soon after a previous meal (which I assume is indigestion), as long as I wait 3-4 hours before eating again I have no stomach pain. I'm also taking 1 tspn of nano silver and berberine 2x daily, and staying pretty much on the KETO diet and gobs of supplements, so I suspect that the regimen may be reducing plaque in arteries (including the SMA) also. Also might have been a nerve problem (autonomic, heart/stomach connection). All I know is that the B1 reduced the stomach symptoms markedly... hope that helps.
@@Sakuragaokaeibikoen One final note, B1 is certainly worth a try. Keep in mind also that the splenic flexure is in that general area also, and depending on individual physiology, blood flow and nerve function can be easily inhibited there... I say this because I noticed that the pain would tend to occur when food in the colon was moving through the transverse colon and rounding the corner to the descending colon. B1 is vital for the proper functioning of the colon also.
@@Sakuragaokaeibikoen take a whole food b-complex with the B1 (no synthetics), nutritional yeast is the best source of natural b-complex, also contains some trace minerals.
Oh dear! Exactly what I had for years! Dr shopped and was told “cronic fibromyalgia“. All ultrasounds came back clear. I walk around with two fingers stuffed in the ache.
I did a drastic diet change abt 8 yrs ago, eliminating 90% of pre-made food, began a plant based diet eating 2 x a day. Huge daily salads ….using only cottage cheese as a dressing. I also began
YouTubing and am now addicted! Valuable info…..I was hooked. Read article ‘s on the hidden poisons , additives , preservative in our foods and knew this was cause of all my health issues. Within a week or 2, all under rib pain gone!
Within the next few years, with vital help from my CZcams doctors/teachers, tachycardia shortness of breath after eating out, ER visit where my sodium level dropped to 33 (should be in the 133-135 range. etc! I watched a Dr Berg video where he talked abt pain under his left rib cage which turned out to be pancreatitis. He nailed it! Bear with me, not a Dr. and paraphrasing “the tube running from stomach to pancreas was filled with crystals. …thus causing pain . Once I stopped eating so poorly and began a good supplemental routine…..I’m good to go another few years! 89 here I now know I was hugely, nutritionally deficient in just about everything!
I don’t eat anything that is FORTIFIED with vitamins. From what I understand, this is just marketing tactic and food industries use the cheapest synthetic vit. poss. Dropped 50#s with out trying!
Elliot and his guests have deffinately saved my life a few times……am so gratful.
They used to fortify foods, especially unhealthy ones like bread and cereal with Thiamine. Those of us in our sixties were raised with this.
I have no idea if this is related: This is pre Internet. I say this because finding information I could understand took time and dedication. My son when born had diarrhea causing rash so bad and prescribed ointments weren't helping... they couldn't circumcise (at 8 days) until 3 months later. (Pre disposable diaper which helps in keeping baby dry) At age 4 he would 'sneak' cake mix, was hidden half ate behind the couch and I considered a B deficiency ). Sleep issues and temper also. I spent years buying from co-ops, baking my own bread and organic health food stores hoping to see a difference in behavior. At 18 he is diagnosed with diabetes with differing thoughts if child or adult onset because of not following the norm (markers?). I still think today that this started with a nutritional deficiency at birth.
Thank you so much for educating me I was diagnosed with thiamine deficiency 3 years ago and now i understand the concept of it
Can you tell me how you got diagnosed with b1 deficiency please, did you ask the doctor to test you, was it a blood test or a specific blood test, I need to know so I can see what is wrong with me cause I have no clue I'm taking b12 shots once a month, and taking vitamin d, magnesium once per every day??
@@cindysaunders6428I did the blood test came back normal but I still have all the symptoms of b1 deficiency! I don’t even know at this point!
This is unbelievable. Fluid retention, big time. Alternate day fasting didn’t affect my weight. Brain fog. Slightly depressed. Low energy (I usually needed to be stopped, before !). Thyroid issues that only temporarily improved with increasing dose. Sth else had to be going on because i’ve been taking a host of supplements for 4 months without much of a result. I started Benfotiamine 250 mg a week ago, worked up from 1/day to 3/day. All above improved dramatically within a week !! Just whaw !!
You should have your iron levels looked at, and your vitamin D tested. B12 as well.
High carb diets deplete B1
I wish my friends and family were smart enough to want to listen to this and your other videos. They just aren’t so I’m on my own.
I think because I can't at this point get blood values, I'm chasing symptoms but my experience last summer when I could get early day sunshine on me, the combo of B1, turmeric, msm, magnesium and multi vit w B and chlorella. Worked pretty good lol. I had to back off mega D3 and the racing mind was better w chlorella and 100mg of B1 at night. Now, I don't use it hardly at all but pain is back. The city I'm in is known for the black mold. Chronic ebv. Just going to look fwd to Sun soon. Thank you both for your patience and dedication figuring this B1 thing out...
I am so glad that i stumbled across your channel. I have been trying to get a diagnosis to what has been ailing me for a long time now. I was diagnosed with Giant Cell Arteritis 3 years ago and have been trying to get pff the high steroids ever since. I now have Cushing's Syndrome form this endeavor and they don't think its GCA that is the cause now as my pain never truly went away. On top of that they diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. Lol. There has been pain in my whole body for years now and i think you may have touched on this briefly as to why. I was given Levaquin in 2008 for a bad infection (a fluriqinolone which is absolutely toxic to your nevous system and mitochondria) and has the most severe reaction to this medication that almost killed me. Severe neuropathy all over my body and brain, heart and lungs, etc. It took me a very very long time to get back on my feet. (There has been a big law suit in the US regarding these medications). I know that my system now has been damaged to the point that is no longer functioning. I have many digestive issues and my brain has not been functioning properly for a long time. I have spent my life savings on trying to get a definitive diagnosis and i think that i can see a lot of the symptoms of what has happened to my body in this broadcast and a few of your others. I have ordered B1 100mg and intend to try the sliw approach to a mega dose. I have nothing to lose. The problem is, how quickly i can get to the megadose? If anyone can chip in here, i would be most grateful.
So, I've been taking Benfotiamine for about a week with a bunch of other great things and have noticed no results. I came across this idea of high-dose B1 today and decided to try it. I feel like me again, it's amazing. I'm not saying I'm cured because it's only been one day and I'm sure after years of illness it'll take time to build myself up again but now I at least have the energy to try to get well again.
IBS, SIBO, GERD, BAM, peripheral neuropathy, fatigue, depression, anxiety and other issues all improved for me with Benfotiamine.

Awesome interview! Thank you for the in depth information you have shared here. Elliot, you're doing such an amazing work. I didn't know much about B1 until I came across your videos and I'm blown away the miraculous effects it has on a human body.
I have L4 L5 Degenerate disk's and I have hard time with Neuropathy Last month when to my neighborhood Whole Foods, brought B1 100mg I did consume 1 pill what happen in 1 hour felt a total pain relieve also the Euphoria was noticeable. Since then I split to 3 doses my pain is reduced to a minimum. Still I keep daily taken no more than 300mg. Afterall I realize major deficiency despite I was never in to alcohol still is a major blow up.

Great talk on B1! For those dealing with constipation Or diarrhea, high blood sugar levels, and many other symptoms. There is a great study done about consumption of cooked green bananas daily can great improve those symptoms. Green bananas feed gut bacteria that produce butyrate, glutathione and correcting neurotransmitters dysregulation. Bananas must be very green and didn't went to a process to speed up maturation. If can't find available, the green bananas flour cooked just like oatmeal does the job.
How do you cook it and how many do you use?
@@KT-ed8hj if you have a cooker pression, let the water start to boil then add the bananas, let it cook for 7 to 8 minutes with the skin on. It peels much easier. Put in the blender with warm water or in a food processor add less water if food processor MORE water if use a blender. The consistently will be like a thinner mush potatoes or if can eat just like cooked patatoes. If blended last 3 days in fridge or couple months in freezer ( must add more water over heat to bring back the consistency) or cook the flour of it just like oatmeal.

You have helped me tremendously. My daughter let me know that we can o d on b1 which made me realise that it had served its purpose, strengthened me and was now giving me negative symptoms re. Throat discomfort and climbing stairs which has now improved since stopping. I still believe your advice saved my health, thankyou.
Even I had constant fatigue, intolerance to carbs and legumes, braing fog and megadosing thiamine has almost taken away all my symtoms. Thank you elliot for bringing such information and helping people who aren't debilitatingly sick enough to get treated by allopathy and not healthy enough to perform basic tasks to live a normal life. I want to help my father with his diabetes too, and can you please tell how to repair damaged mitochondria? he's 51, and very likely to have it. He may not be able to do prolonged fasting, red light therapy may help a little, but I need your insights to do it in the most effective way. Also will you look into the phenomenon of mitophagy?

What was your daily mega dose amount?
Can you tell us the form & dose of B1? Pls & thx!
although I rushed it, but later regretted as I got severe paradoxical reactions, in form of heart palpitations and anxiety. Go slow, start with 50-100mg of benfotiamine, wait till your symtoms improve, supplement with other nutrients as well. Increase your dose to 200mg, wait for symtoms to get better and repeat it till you get satisfying results. It almost takes a week at a time for symtoms to get better. I used Elliot's protocol to guide myself through that. You may also take small doses of ttfd or sulbutamine for improving thiamine status in brain. Also rule out fatigue due to other reasons, like b6 deficiency. Some people may have polymorphisms where lots of stress or certain medications deplete b6. They can also cause depression/anxiety, pms, histamine intolerance, unstable blood sugars etc. Do your research!
Prakriti, have a look into bitter melon, also known as 'vegetable insulin' Curcumin, Quercetin and Milk Thistle..
Herkheimer Response is the term for the fact that a person feels worse before feeling better/before realizing improved health state when using natural remedies.
@dragonstaye4557, it’s actually Herxheimer reaction, noted by Dr Herxheimer. My family & I all had a reaction after treating ourselves with oregano oil for mold sickness. We got very sick. The oregano oil causes a great detox, but I didn’t know then that we should have been taking a binder (like coconut charcoal or bentonite clay) opposite time of the oregano oil. 😊

My wrist/thumb were extremely painful and becoming deformed. Osteoarthritis they said. I can’t take steroids. Anyway I started taking allithiamine for a lot of things including air hunger and leg and feet swelling. My wrist and thumb stopped popping and all pain there is gone. I can even use it. It is weaker and looks different, but works. Regular thiamine does work for me so I use the allithiamine form. I learned so much from reading Dr. Derrick Londsdale’s info at Hormones Matter.

I'm the case where you need to ramp slowly. I started taking 150mg benfotiamine with TMG and noticed it drove my HRV up...but after awhile my kidneys were in a lot of pain. I am heavy metal toxic so I think it perhaps pushed too much through my kidneys. I have to detox the metals very slowly. I backed off and now I take it about twice a week and hope to ramp up to higher doses over time. Its like clockwork how it improves my HRV though! Its quite encouraging.
kidneys were in pain ? what exactly was problem with your kidney?
@@nageshnimbalkar4091 When a person has heavy metal toxicity it can ruin the kidneys (& liver). Kidneys are much harder to detox by way of their design. Pain for me is probably stones and inflammation which I'm working to heal and detox naturally. But you can't detox too quickly....Water fasting has been the most effective.
@@regideluca during that time coffee enema is beneficial to ease up the burden of the kidneys.
be careful you will kill the kidney nephrons,go slowly
Please try fasting. Then look into chelation iv therapy. I’m a veteran that did both to address metal toxicity.
I have just been diagnosed with gastroparesis and NAFLD!! I feel I'm DOOMED at this point. 😢😢😢
You're in a better state than most: knowing your diagnosis. Congrats!
Thanks for the video. Great insight about thiamine's role in so many functions that are critical for health. Definitely want to try TTFD now. My only complain is the biohacker guy in white shirt kept interrupting Elliot which was incredibly annoying. It's ok to ask questions or clarify but it seemed like he can't stop talking about himself.
I agree, it was amazing information, but the interruptions were unbearable. Many times they happened right when he was building up to a main point. 😐I could listen to Elliot all day! 😊
those little squash pumpkins has a lot of vitamin B1 too. you can google foods high in vit B1 and see.
I like this video. and the way he does videos quick and directly.
I was taking Benfotaimine and supplementing with potassium and magnesium until I received my order from Elliot’s Objective Nutrients. (I wanted the purest and most potent supplements designed by Elliot)
I was experiencing some positive effects but still experiencing issues until my first dose of Elliot’s protocol products.
Just the first dose of Elliot’s-
WoW, the morning after, I see miraculous results!
I was right, the purest and well designed dose and elements is a game changer!!!
Thank you so much ELLIOT!
Sincerely Grateful to You🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I wake up every morning with lower abdominal pain. I did have trace blood in my urine a few times over the past few years. I had a scan a few years ago when I had a little blood and nothing showed. I sometimes feel like I have been run over, beat up, and have a very heavy feeling when I wake up. I usually feel better later. The most odd thing is, when I go to sleep lately, I feel a sudden panic and at times I feel a sense of doom like I’m about to die. I lay there and cannot relax. Ive had anxiety over the years but not at a specific time. It’s always when I lay down to go to sleep and that’s it. I’ve never had that in my life. Also my ears will ring sometimes as well. It’s all very strange. I took Blue Bonnet B1 for 3 days and noticed during the day after I take it I feel really good and have a light feeling inside for hours. However, I’m still having the panic feeling when I go to bed, and I’m still having a little of the pain in the morning when I wake up. I’m probably dying. Anyway, I don’t know if I should take more of the B1 because with the 1 capsule I feel really good when I take it. I don’t trust regular doctors because they use poisons in my opinion such as chemo for cancer patients. I’ve watched several people I cared about die after putting all their trust in doctors. Anyway it’s really awful.
I was feeling like this on and off a few months ago. That dying feeling waking up panicking but I’m glad it subsided and I’ve been trying to make heal my body naturally with supplements just started taking the b1 and berberine. Do you have high blood sugar issues? Just curious..
I went to a specialist because of severe back pain. In the consultation I was asked if iv ever checked my vit D levels . Had test done, mine was very low, I was given a very high dose for 10 days, afterwards a lower daily dose. Do your research on D and back pain.
It's too bad that you don't offer this (Thiamine Dosing Protocols ) information to those of us who purchase your supplements. 59 euros. :(( . Great money maker you have going for you. Great salesman.
The bottle doesn’t say the dosing? They’ve addressed dosing….but they have to be careful what they say because of the legal liability the system has in place for natural remedies …..they’re stating to start out slow with a smaller dose…the dose recommended on the bottle and then up the dose after a week until the symptoms u have been having start to go away….$59 compared to big pharma prices …..who is selling what? Doctors? Or this guy? Doctors sell u poison in pill form and ur happy with that? But bent out of shape over buying B1 supplements that actually help ur system regardless…🤦♀️ perhaps it’s best u stick with man’s cure for everything and leave the natural God given remedies to those who have patience and understand they’ve been investing poison everyday for decades and now have to have patience while the body cleans and heals itself…the only magic pills is the one that ends all suffering….and life …
Hello sir i you read this pls reply. I have been facing lots of symptoms like sudden shortness of breath. Gut issues.anxiety racing thoughts. Nerve issues. Low energy. Fatigue. But every test normal. Only b12 and vitamin d is low. I went to doctor they gave me anti depressants.i torn their receipt and came back and found you.
I had the same issue since 2019 no allopathy Dr could find atlast my native medicine Tamil science found out I have nerves damage feels much better getting treatment from him in India, advice you to take b12 magnesium all the victims via food do Surya namaskar exercise 3 times a day see the changes
I think i developed vagus issues from vaping, severe stress/abuse and poor diet. I passed out, dizzy when standing, blood sugar issues, vertigo, gate issues, low blood pressure, anxiety, paranoia, panic attacks, dizziness, no feeling on my skin, depersonalization, sound sensitive and depression.
Best to leave Processed food carbs and sugar out of your diet. The Western food industry are owned by the same people who own the pharmaceutical industry.
I do have one question, as Benfotiamine is lab created likened to thiamine hydrochloride, does it contain aluminum likened to thiamine hydrochloride?
Wow. Thank you! I have a Long Covid and Nerve damage from it. I did take liquid Benfotiamine , B12 and B6.
I started the b1 I'm praying it's the answer to a 29 year question 🤞🏽🙏🏽
Praying for you
What form or brand and dosage do you take?
How did it go
Thank you, Elliot, for this channel and being so on point.
What is the best way to take allithiamine?
Ideal dosage and how many times a day?
I thought this might answer that question. czcams.com/video/jaBfyMug858/video.html
Read recently about white polished rice being a killer and to substitute with barley because polished rice causes thiamine deficiency.
cancel the grains, you do not need them.
Rice does not *cause* thiamine deficiency, that's absolutely ridiculous. A lack of thiamine causes thiamine deficiency.
I started taking B 1 Allithiamine from Dr. Berg. He has a CZcams channel and a shop.
Anyway it’s not even been a week and I feel a huge difference. I don’t even have to think about walking hardly at all anymore and it feels so normal now. I also feel like I can breathe easily all the time now, too.
It’s only been one week, and I’m feeling much better already. I’m excited. Thank you God. I just happened to see a random video about a guy with severe problems that took B 1 and went from skin and bones to looking these guys in TWO months! Without doing anything AT ALL except take a tiny dose of TTFD. Insane
Does allithiamine produce a garlic smell to your skin and breath? I heard this doctor mention it did that.
@@laquerisma Well, I’ve only been taking it for a little over a week, so I may not have taken it long enough to experience that. But, on the plus side, I can say I definitely don’t smell like 🧄 lol
Also, I’ve noticed my muscles have grown in my legs a bit just from walking🦵 I feel much more stable when I stand and walk. My neck still hurts a tiny bit, but the tension and pain are almost gone already. I really can’t believe it’s only been a week…
God’s answering my prayers in ways I was definitely not expecting.
Do you take one capsule a day? You stick to dr bergs recommendation
@@mimivee5494 Yes I take 1 capsule a day. I started taking B1 TTFD a couple days ago so I’ll need more time to see how that works for me.
@@HappilyAnonymousGirl so you stopped the allithiamine after one week? And now ttfd
Thank you so much for all the fantastic and interesting information in this video!
Doctors always told me my levels were “just fine”. But actually there may be a deficiency already.
Would you say that’s correct?
So many of us are trying countless remedies, all in vain.
So it might be worth getting deeper into reading vitamin levels correctly and then act upon it.
Took benfotiamine twice this past week...ended up in the ER twice. 2nd one raised my heart rate up to 183, faint, sweating, blurred vision, shortness of breath, severe syncope. Thought that was it for me and I was going to pass away in front of my mother. Got admitted into the hospital. They ran all kinds of tests only to find that I was perfectly fine would the exception of my heart enzymes quadrupling from the rate spike which is extremely dangerous but it decreased later which is a good sign. What am I doing wrong? These paradoxical events were the scariest things I've ever experienced. Everything you described I suffer from. Gastroparesis, severe gerd, brain fog from long covid, etc.
what dose benfotiamine?
@@EONutrition 300mg. sorry for the late response
In past Ive tried Benfotiamine and 2 other types of B1 & triggers migraines.
Got treated for SIBO and have taken B1 Hydrochloride 300mg for 3 weeks and no migraines.
But I'm afraid to try the BENFOTIAMINE again and especially after reading what it did to you. How scary for you!! I hope the presenter answers your question Why. It could also be a filler issue or a defective lot and a manufacturer issue. I had a bad lot of doctors choice B Complex where they dumped too much niacin in it and the Amazon reviews showed many others had same symptoms as myself.
Update 1 month later:
1st tried 300mg day then 600 mg day and after 1 month on Befotiamine on 900mg day. More migraines but not convinced its directly causal to Benfotiamine. Taking 125mg molybdenum to decrease my Sulphur Intolerance which my theory is why I could never take Thiamine without triggering migraines prior. I feel I may not have fully gotten rid of sibo as Oliver educates SIBO causes Sulphur Intolerance.
My question for Oliver is 1) It it a mistake to take Probiotics if have SIBO? Or wait until Sibo treated?
U sensitive to supplements in general? Thats still crazy odd
You have to balance B1 with other B vitamins, like B12 and B6.
Always love your content brother
Hello @EONutrition,
I have started TTFD (Thiamax) & Benfotiamine high dose 3 weeks back.
In initial few days (1 week) I received good results but following 2 weeks there is no improvement in my chronic fatigue, IBS C, pain, mold/ VOC toxicity, brain fog, CIRS & other symptoms. I am suffering from these symptoms for past 5 years.
Is it normal to make recovery & then wean off? How long it might take to stabilize the progress?
I am taking CDP Choline & B5 for IBS C, as suggested in one of your videos. Should stop it & only take B1 with Magnesium & B Complex?
Grateful to you for all your efforts & help. At least there is some ray of hope after extremely painful life of 5 years. Thanks again!
Look at methylene blue....
@@cosmichealth3907 Thanks. Hope it works for my health issues.
Can you please let me know what strength / brand & dosage?
Warm Regards,
Hemant
@@cosmichealth3907 Thanks. Can you please elaborate more? I do not have any information on methylene blue & how it should be taken.
@@cosmichealth3907 Please, looking for some more information. What dosage?
Thanks
Thank you so much for your work, you saved my life.
So mega dose B1 to Jumpstart the enzymes factory ...sometimes I thought taking a multivitamin that has B1 would take care of that...but it's like a car battery...it needs that initial jump start to get started
Interesting info about gut motility, vagus nerve, high dosing B1
Prokinetic motility responds from TTFD can penetrate thru cellular toxins
Benefits Chronic illness or chronic fatigue
Stimulates dopamine and serotonin helps sleep
Regulates fight or flight response is Very Interesting *
Tell us more about the unwanted symptoms of megadosing B1. I've been trying to take 100mg TTFD but it doesn't sit well with me, I develop a persistent pain in one side of my throat not to mention a persistent horrible metalic chemical tatse/smell sensation. (TTFD is from you btw) I'm now taking 1/3 of a cap daily so 30mg or so and I don't get the above symptoms. My plan is to increase my dose in a few weeks. Reasons for me taking B1 are many; Lifetime of gut immotility/POTS/poor circulation/reynaulds/low HCL (I also take multi-vit/magnesuim/potassium/molybdenum/b12/LipoGlutathione/Betaine HCL/ACV/Digestive Enzymes) I also drink electrolite drink daily.

@@EONutrition Thanks, forgot to add I have been taking Lipo G for over a year now too (take so many things every day I forget the list) I'll watch this vid again and see if I have missed something, perhaps the methionine/choline etc would help.
@@HAL-1984 how are doing now?
@@KIke190JRF I tolerate 200-400mg/day now, still get the chemical taste/smell but not so strong as initially
@@HAL-1984 and are your symptoms getting better?
What you are talking about is the Triage Theory of Dr Ames of Children's Hospital California. According to this theory the body always gives priority in the use of nutrient to the process(s) most likely to cause imminent death if they are undersupplied and do so at the expense of those involved in general health or function. This is why most research that determines nutrient needs by measuring overt deficiency effects do not result in optimum levels which vary by individual depending on age and state of health.
I have chronic fatigue & hyperthyroidism. I'm in a constant state of stress/ anxiety. My heart, joints, cognition & eyesight now seem to be affected. My brain feels very strange indeed, it's hard to think & it feels like a volcano is off in my head all the time. Also noticed twitches & nervous system problems. I made it to Holland & Barrett to buy B1. I've started it today. I have some hope now. Btw- what is ttfd? I have just ordered Benfotiamine. Thank you
Look into live blood cell analysis. Use the search engine duck duck go & your nearest location. Might be a systemic infection. Even if it’s leaky gut you’ll be able to see it. Some Functional medicine doctors, some naturopaths & chiropractors offer this kind of testing typically for under $100
@@katiie7 thank you
@@Kerry-ft2zf no worries. I never want to see anyone suffer like I did. It’s sometimes hard to test for these things. For me it was a literal life saver, I wish more people knew about it ❤️
If it is Lyme take pictures as most medical doctors don’t utilize this method. If you have low immune cells and don’t test positive for antibodies it’s just an endless chase. Ten pass ozone knocked it out for me with naturopathic doctors down in usa I’m in Canada it’s illegal here. I was 70lbs on my death bed and told it was my fault I was anorexic meanwhile I had intestinal paralysis (& remains 7 years later) sepsis as a result etc. Those two things. Live blood cell analysis & 10 pass ozone. Best of luck. Also if you want to do mold testing. The company Dutch. Does urine testing & can be ordered on your own & done at home. They also test for comprehensive hormones. My adrenals were flat lined for years testing with metabolites where blood said i was normal because each blood draw I was stressed. Live & learn
@@katiie7 thank you so much, I will look into the things you suggest 👍
Excellent interview! Thank you
Elliot.....Do you have an opinion on SULBUTIAMINE...pros/cons...?
Super curious about this too!
What about Benfotiamine? The fat soluble form. Wouldn't this be better since B vitamins get washed out so quickly? I take the liquid form and hold it under my tongue for a minute.
What do you think of different forms of thiamine? Benfotamine for example and it's 300mg capsule vs thiamine 100mg?
I take 300mg Benfotiame started about a week ago.
@@claystone7729 what about now?
Intractable pain patient here. 11 years and 2 back surgeries later I'm so much worse than I was before.. body being crushed by muscles from my lower back to my feet.. burned alive and electuted 24/7.. muscles are like concrete. Can't stand/ walk, lift, push,pull, can't straighten my knees out. Muscles won't let me 🥺😭
I started having all these issues due to many years of anxiety/depression as I have ptsd.
Are you taking B1? And if so which one?
@@puppetken I’m not
@@Mandance Oh, sorry! Lol
9:02 best for motility Thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide
Im praying this helps my SIBO. Everything else has failed.
Get on ketogenic diet, meat heavy or carnivore. The b1 therapy will work much better with these diets. It should help you much more quickly.
Btw, I had SIBO twice in one year then again just before I started meat heavy keto. I didn’t need to take the antibiotic Xifaxcin to get rid of it. In ten days, I had no more problems. Had GERD as well and had been on Protonix for 3 years at an increased 2 X a day dose. I didn’t need that anymore either. Been almost 5 years and no longer suffering from those things.
Did I just come across a cure for bloating acid reflux burping & chronic vatigue.
