Question 1

does tannins binds to thiamine?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Tannins can bind to metal ions, alkaloids, and thiamine reducing their absorption.

Question 2

what are the disadvantages and advantages of thiamine?

Accepted Answer

Advantages: We need thiamine. Thiamine deficiency can lead to Korsakoff's syndrome, optic neuropathy or Beriberi.

Question 3

what foods should i avoid that have zinc and b1(thiamine)?

Accepted Answer

Why?: I am wondering about this question. A low-zinc diet is sometimes prescribed for pompholyx though it's difficult and relatively ineffective, but if someone has told you to limit your intake of thiamine, you are receiving bizarre and inappropriate advice. There may be a misunderstanding, if so, write back.

Question 4

why do individuals with a thiamine-deficient diet have relatively high lev?

Accepted Answer

Truncated question: Thiamine-deficient diets in real life are seen only in famine / starvation and in people who are intoxicated for weeks at a time. They get brain and nerve damage and the heart eventually fails. I'm sorry the question was truncated even if it was homework; if someone's diagnosed you with thiamine deficiency on a normal diet, consider a phone call to your district attorney. Good luck.

Question 5

can thiamine vitamin b1 raise your rate rate?

Accepted Answer

: Presume you mean "heart rate", and have never found that thiamine affects cardiac function at usual dosing.

Question 6

i bought 500mg of vitamin b1 thiamine, is that too much?

Accepted Answer

DANGER: Replacing any of your b vitamins (especially in high dose) without ensuring an adequate intake of all your b vitamins can result in an overall deficiency of  the ones not replaced. This is because the b vitamins often work in concert. Driving pathways that require b1 that also require b2/b3 can create a relative deficiency. Having too many members of the brass section can drown out the strings.

Question 7

my 64 yr old father, recently diagnosed with wernike korsakuff syndrome, is it too late for thiamine?

Accepted Answer

Yes: I'm sorry about your Dad. There was nothing you could have done to prevent this. Give him as much care now as you reasonably can.

Question 9

how does vitamin b1 (thiamine) affect or improve diabetes?

Accepted Answer

Depends: English literature shows it might be protective for the kidney but if you already have kidney problems high doses of b vitamins can be harmful. It like any medication should be discussed with your diabetes doctor.

Question 10

why we give glucose after thiamine in wernicke encephalopathy?

Accepted Answer

Disproven: This has supposedly been debunked in some articles. But the theory is that if a thiamine deficient patient is given glucose this would deplete further thiamine stores and further worsen wernickes.
