Today I want to cover the bizarre symptoms of vitamin B1 deficiency.

Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is important for your nerves, and a deficiency in vitamin B1 can impact all parts of your nervous system.

Vitamin B1 is necessary to give energy to a specific cell that makes myelin. Myelin is a coating around your nervous system. If that coating breaks down because of vitamin B1 deficiency, various negative things can start to happen.

Top causes of vitamin B1 deficiency:
• Refined sugar and carbohydrates
• Tea
• Coffee
• Wine
• Dried fruit
• Alcohol
• Raw fish
• Metformin
• Chlorine (tap water)
• Antibiotics
• Antacids
• Diuretics
• Birth control pills
• SSRIs
• Seizure medications
• HPV vaccinations
• Betel nut

Bizarre symptoms of vitamin B1 deficiency:
• Tourette syndrome
• Ataxia
• Obsessive-compulsive disorder
• ADHD
• POTS syndrome
• MS symptoms
• Fibromyalgia symptoms
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Peripheral neuropathy

It's important to pinpoint what's causing your thiamine deficiency, so you can start doing something about it. You can also start taking vitamin B1—just be sure it's a natural version. Unfortified nutritional yeast is a great natural source of vitamin B1. If you have a problem related to your myelin sheath, you may also want to take benfotiamine.

This is no joke... B1 deficiency was literally causing me full blown autonomic failure. From heart issues to GI dysmotility from my esophagus all the way to my descending colon. Nutritional yeast and benfotiamine quite literally saved my life. I went to GI specialists, neurologists, sleep specialists, cardiologists and it wasn't until finally I saw a pulmonology specialist of all things... because for some reason I was getting severe shortness of breath... and he was so blown away by the fact that I couldn't walk up a flight of stairs even though my heart and lungs were structurally normal. I asked him if there could be a Nutritional explanation for these symptoms... he thought about it for a second.... and finally said... "it's a possibility... but it would have to be so bad that's it's something called beri beri (b1 deficiency) but... that's just not possible in the western world today..." I do thank him for mentioning it... but I found it so odd that he said beri beri is a possibility but then it's not possible. Haha needless to say with in 4 hours of taking Nutritional yeast my shortness of breath vanished. Within 24 hours my choking during my sleep vanished and with in 48 hours of taking benfotiamine my global autonomic dysfunctions all started to improve simultaneously. This stuff is no joke. Thank you Dr. Berg for all of your insights. It truly does save lives. I will be letting my specialists know what happened and that YES beri beri is still alive and hurting people today. Cheers!

I had completely lost trust in doctors as a profession, until I started listening to Dr. Berg. His lessons are a mix of medical knowledge and common sense.

I have been vitamin B1 deficient 10 years I had to diagnose myself by watching doctors like you. Within two weeks my symptoms had improved at least 50% within four weeks my symptoms improved 80% and even if I don't get my other 20 back I feel like a new person. I thought it was so bad that I was going to have to go into a wheelchair and probably assisted living now I'm back my old self almost. I hope I didn't do damage that I can't undo but I'm just grateful to be where I am I'm actually walking pretty well and I get up and down my cardio problems have improved thank you so much for the videos you do you don't know it but you save lives keep up the good work

I was texting my daughter today. I told her that I started to take B1 (Benfotiamine), B complex & Magnesium bcuz I was suffering from lack of sleep, confusion, lightheaded & a lot of back pain ( I felt like my back was going to break)...I also suffer from sciatica. I told her within 3 wks of taking it I feel great! I sleep like a baby 😊 Anyways, she said that Dr. Berg just put out a video about B1. I hope it helps others as it helped me. Thank u Dr. Berg. BTW Dr Berg ur skin looks amazing!

Went to a doctor because I had a long list of symptoms.
The doctor did a bunch of tests and said there’s nothing wrong, in fact you’re very healthy.
Then she prescribed an inhaler. I asked why would you prescribe that if there’s nothing wrong?
She said..”you know.” Insinuating it was all in my head.
So much for doctors.
I quit junk food and doctors and started taking supplements, eating bone broth soup to heal the gut etc.
All symptoms gone and now I am healthy as a horse.

[Xezbethnovitch]

I had peripheral neuropathy in my hands and toes. I cut sugar and took Vitamin B complex supplements and neuropathy is gone! Thank you Dr. Berg I owe this to you!!

[JetBlackTrilogy]

It's really disappointing that doctors won't tell you any of this.
Thank you so much for all of your informative videos.

I completed a four-month intense gut protocol with a functional doctor. Had incredible results, but I still would get constipation from time to time. Even with an improved diet and exercise, but still couldn't shake it. Then I watched this video on B1 deficiency. Ordered your B1 supplement and now no more issues. Thank you!

Dr Bergs B1 supplement literally saved me from my ocd. I struggled for so long with ocd specifically racing repetitive thoughts (negative thoughts) but with B1 and walking 1 mile every day my life has dramatically improved. Thank you Dr berg ❤

[afox]

I started taking about 1500mg of B1 spread out during the day and it’s improved my stuttering about 90%

[DigitalMoneyMichelle]

I was very I’ll & could barely walk until I decided to supplement B1 My body is slowly untwisting & neuropathy is going away I’m so thankful for the inflammation

[azjojo]

One of the few trustworthy docs left! Thank you Dr. Berg!!

[lauriedavies]

My grandma's on antibiotics a lot for recurring bladder infections & all she eats is carbs. She has every symptom of a B1 deficiency. She doesn't have turrets, but she has taken to shouting names randomly. Pain in the bottoms of her feet (peripheral neuropathy)... frequent nightmares... all of it. I've got to get her some B1. Dr. Berg is just so amazing. The help this man offers the world is without words for enough praise. Love Dr. Berg.

You just described what my husband has suffered since 2017. He has gone from doctor to doctor spent thousands of dollars and still had no diagnosis of relief. Will be starting him on this immediately.

[mikizab]

Dr. Berg has literally saved me. Many others had failed me. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

[boomer]

Thank you Dr. Berg! Dealing with a plethora of food allergies, Beta-thalassemia blood type, and still putting in 12 hour days at the railroad at 57-years-young, things have become quite challenging, but I believe you have offered a resolution to my situation, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart, may God continue to bless you.

[jameshardin]

Yes sir, I have had some classes on nutrition and study it a bit. Some people might need to know that B1 is Thiamine, B2 is Riboflavin, B3 is Niacin, , D3 is Cholecalif, etc. I still get things confused a bit and have to read the label to check How Much vitamins I’m taking.

Thanks!

[CeeceeWhip]

Bottom line: STOP SUGAR and limit caffeine teas and pharmaceuticals.

[janbuntyn]

I watch Dr Berg's videos nearly every day. And I get so much out of them. I took some of his nutritional yeast just now and I did not realize how badly I needed B1. It actually made my blood sugar go down. His advice is what I use mostly to keep my diabetes in check. Keep up the good work!

Lupron is also an option for prostate cancer. My dad chose to start Lupron injections in 2010 instead of surgery, chemo and radiation. He's 90 and doing well
