It amazes me as an ICU RN that I see many of these patients everyday. But only alcoholics get B1 and Folate supplements. No one else. As I’ve been learning over past 6-9 months is that many of our diagnoses can be treated with a more holistic approach. Going against big pharmaceutical companies philosophy. And profits.
That's like barbera O'Neill videos .. she went holistic ..and the author of fast like a girl.. our cicadian rythem..our bodys can heal till the day we die ..and repair our dna ..and those ladies really helped me not to die at 53 .after decades of hell from b1 deficiency or not understanding I need minerals like to activate my cell to use it I need water 4 cups per cup a coffee ..n tea n all kinds of things ..our diets suck or not knowing these little things like soil depletion.. like chemicals in our foods.. like all that. .or how the body can activate those stem cells...or kowi fruit or green tea or black tea n the stem cells .. changeling our alkaline or acid ph with a little lemon ..simple stuff .. magnesium or Redmond salts Epsom salts ..ext ..even in our crops adding some Epsom salts ..just so mutch on barbers channel and then I love this one too I found. After her I'm like yes god..!! Thankyou jesus for the answer to a prayer ..bcuz b1 deficiency is a stressed which causes people to self medicate or drink n re..dehydrate n xyz.. just a cycle.. I watched my mother go through all he said n end up a sceliton bcuz her doctors did exactly what he said they do ..per batum..so thank God he makes these videos.. ! Bless these guys steppin out there telling the truth..!
Everything You discussing is what IAM on aspecially the diuretics not easy had heart failure couple years back also on Metformin thanks doctorMuch appreciated.iam learning so much at my old age age asage
@@SandraPeters-sz4sj so my question is not to be sticking my nose into your health , but is your EF or ejection fraction less then 60%? If so you are being treated correctly. But if EF is 60-65% you may look into what he was saying about B1 deficiency. They have same symptoms as each other.
Your opinions on this will never be appreciated or taken with a grain of salt because B1 doesn’t make money and might cure too easily. I pray you help as much as you can!!
@@thechickincharge1073 first thanks for the prayer! I do care. I see people being treated for something that with diagnostic tests done conflict with diagnosis. So being treated with medication that have side effects and telling them that their heart sucks is damaging to their emotional and psychological health. And does nothing to fix root cause. And yes I know big pharm has a lot to do with this which is wrong. But if everyone shares maybe a few can be healed by a cheap fix.
Living the nightmare of wet, dry, and GI thiamine deficiency right now. This has been the most challenging health issue to get diagnosed that I have experienced. It mimics so many diseases. I just had the bloodwork for the serum B1 test yesterday; unfortunately, until I watched this video, I didn't know that there's a B1 deficiency test at the cellular level called ETAC which is even more accurate. I will continue to advocate for myself and I will go down swinging if I have to. Lord Jesus help me please. 💕🙏
I took 750mg of Benfotiamine after about 3 months of blurry vision. I’m type 1 Diabetic. Next morning I woke up with crystal clear vision. Lower stress and much more energy
@@jenny-wc8qy I think it’s the life extension brand. Blue bottle that says mega Benfotiamine. 250 mg per capsule. I took 750 mg the first few days but it made me almost too relaxed. So i went down to 500mg and feel better. I cant believe how well it works. Hope it works for you too
Thiamine is water-soluble, which means it has trouble crossing the fat layer that forms the outside of each cell. *_Benfotiamine_* is the fat-soluble form that is easily absorbed into the cell (3 to 5 times more easily), where it is converted into thiamine. Because benfotiamine is more bioavailable than thiamine, it provides higher levels of thiamine within the brain, liver, kidney, and all muscle tissues.
The same with me. I had severe shortness of breath while sleeping. Taking vitamin B1 before bed saves me from that! I found out a month ago that I’m deficient.
Allopathic Doctors need to take a Nutritional Therapy Course from You and Dr. Eric Berg.... Both of you are wonderful Teachers. Why don't Allopathic Doctors know these things or if they do why don't they share this information with their patients. What a game changer to know this... Thank you so much !
And Dr. ALAN MANDEL, Dr. Axe, DR. STAN ECBERG & DR. GUNDRY. I QUIT going to doctors for help around 2009 after hearing Dr. Gundry then all these wonderful true Healthcare people. Today I found Dr. OSBOURNE. I'm forever thankful to these my heros.
I am only 11 minutes into your video and I am already having some puzzle pieces fit together. Sorry in advance for this long history: I’m a 56 year old male. I’m not what you’d call obese or really even overweight. I am 5’11” and 195lbs. I’ve struggled for years with hypertension/high cholesterol and have been on blood pressure meds since my late 20sor early 30s. I’ve been diagnosed my multiple different doctors with Myofascial pain syndrome as well as chronic fatigue syndrome. Some doctors have called it fibromyalgia and connective tissue disorder. My rheumatologist tested me for my ANA levels and they came back with slight elevations for lupus symptoms. 16 months ago I had quadruple bypass open-heart surgery. Two months ago I did a sleep study and they found that I had sleep apnea and now I am trying to adjust to a CPAP machine which is not going well. Then a video popped up in my feed that suggested that I might have B1 deficiencies which can cause sleep apnea. I just found your video and hope that I may find additional possible answers to my condition.
@@rtbrain look for Dr David Brownstein and his iodine books as well as others. He also has an online practice, hopefully he would be able to help you. I am reading his gut book and the stories he shares are amazing! He also has 3 or 4 youtube videos that are worth a watch. Take care!
I've been struggling with health issues since September of 2022. It hit me like a rock! I've been to the ER and finally was able to get health insurance. I had edema in my left leg. Trouble sleeping. Brain fog. Blood pressure issues. Sudden random dizziness. Intestinal problems. Mild depression. My leg swelled up so bad that I'd have to rap it from my ankle to my mid thye . Im 48. A waitress and work long hours. So eating healthy and enough food has been a battle. At the ER I got diagnosed with Sciatica. I did have it but it was the result of the edema. I was given a steroid ,muscle relaxers and pain killers. It helped but it returned as soon as they weren't available anymore. As soon asI got my health insurance I scheduled an appointment for a doctor's appointment. The staff were amazing but after my visit I didn't feel my doctor was truly listening to me. I explained everything and the journey I've been through and after her exam she took some blood work. When my results came in I ,after my own research,shared it with my holistic doctor friend. She listened and was way more concerned about my doctor's approach and my blood work. The doctor ,after my physical exam stated I had injured my leg and that was the result of my pain and swelling. I knew this was false because I could feel something in my tissues. I know my body. My blood work showed my cholesterol was a bit high for my age. My platelets were just above normal. The doctor wanted to put me on muscle relaxers and a staten. I didn't pick up the prescription from the pharmacy. I was determined to figure out what was wrong. All my symptoms pointed to one thing. It's a B1 issue. As soon as I took it within an hour literally all my pain in my leg and swelling was gone! I have an un diagnosed celiacs disease. I know now that cheating isnt worth it anymore. It blows my mind how something so simple can destroy your livelihood! I wish more doctor's understood how nutrition plays such a roll in your health. Prescribing meds should be a last resort.
Hi , what supplement from which brand did you take and which dosage? I wonder if maybe covid depletes B1 because I read a lot of stories about people with breathing symptoms and symptoms like you who took B1 and it was gone
@@climax1233 I just look for a organic option with no unnecessary additives. The dosage from my research really depends on the individual. I've always had a high tolerance to medication and needed more vitamins than the recommended dose for most things. So I opted for the higher dose and added more daily. People can have a genetic enzyme disorder that can create the deficiency also. That is were I believe I land on this issue. You can get tested but I chose not to because of my results. Also from my research I read how with some people that the thiamine B1,stopped working. It's because it's water soluble so it gets extracted fast from your body. It seems to be happening to me . However there is a stronger version that your body is able to keep longer so I've ordered that. Benfotiamine. I think part of my relapse is the carbs that I sometimes eat. Carbs and sugar depletes your B1. I was also on the Carnivore diet so that helped.I stopped. I'm returning to it as of now. It's been hard to reprogram my brain about food and nutrition. I realize we've been lied to and that eventually it will catch up to you .
Another ICU RN here and I’m seeing such an uptick in “autoimmune “ dis-eased humans. Thiamine mainly prescribed for alcohol abuse with no B1 levels ever checked. Only B12 , folate levels are being checked around So Cal area hospitals. Thanks for this enlightening information 🙏🏻come to think of it, no Vitamin C given for sepsis either 🤷♀
" Auto-immune disease is caused by triggers" 100%! I started the carnivore diet (minus dairy) 12 weeks ago and haven't suffered a single symptom of my auto-immune conditions. I also reversed my pre-diabetes. My quality of life has done a 180 as my anxiety and depression lifted in less than 2 weeks. I am still supplementing my B vitamins as well as D and A for awhile as they were severely depleted on my plant-based diet.
@@dionpaschini4536 I started here ua-cam.com/play/PL48jnTudSMf_Qiip-b6rMgS_7fL6t7v1N.html Its been over a year and I haven't felt this good in decades. I'll never go back. Good health to you!
@@dionpaschini4536 Many variations on what is considered Carnivore but it's basically meat and animal fat in it's strictest form. Also, any food from animals like eggs, dairy, cheese and such. Fish and seafood is good too. It's very adaptive for personal health issues and preferences, like keto and low carb.
My husband just went the last 2 years through hell. When it started I did not know what hit me (him). I have received a spiritual message from a friend of ours saying that there is something going on with his vagus nerve and still it took 2 years to finally find an answer to so many symptoms. The heart, the lungs, the kidneys and his digestive tract were all effected. But there is hope. I am positive that this kind of medical system will not survive much longer. In fact I believe it will be the first to go.
Hello . How are you helping the vagus nerve . Did you get covid or jab? Pls let us know! Most viruses can attack the vagus nerve 2 Yeats to heal l heard .also if he's has not looked at the neck c1 lateral c spine xray can show compressed c1 check by chiropractor it also l believe does something to vagus nerve . How are you helping and he's he strengthening thru vagal toning?
“The vagus nerve originates at the dorsal motor nucleus of the medulla located in the brainstem, one of the brain regions susceptible to thiamine deficiency.” Jan 5, 2019 EONutrition
Great explanation doc. Great service to us. Fat ankles have disappeared after starting on the Bs and I don't think that's a coincidence. It seems like we are all on the verge of forms of Beri Beri without knowing it!
After watching vitamin B deficiency videos, I bought a whole foods based B-complex vitamin. I suffer from Lyme and I thought most of my symptoms were because of Lyme, but I realized after watching B vitamin videos that I'm deficient. I eat a whole foods vegan diet and I don't eat process foods often. I noticed my symptoms abating after adding the B-complex vitamin.
Is it funny the doctors doesn’t take nutrition classes? in my opinion a doctor is not a doctor unless he knows all these otherwise he is a drug seller! Im form Iraq so forgive me if my English is not very good sometimes my grammar ☺️ but I always pray to god to protect you and doctors like you 🙏🏻❤️💞🌷
Why is it that people who have near perfect English always apologize for their English? Must be the humble-brag : Oh look how good my English is and I’m in Iraq ! Give it a rest Muhammad
Ignorance is bliss for the pharmaceutical /food industry who are instrumental in setting the study programs for doctors !!! If doctors were educated in nutrition they would have to go against the accepted doctrine that every ailment should be treated by big pharma drugs !!! IT’S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY !! YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A CASH COW !!!!!!!
Doctors made me very sick in the past. I was so sick that I almost died of epilepsy. I would react to most of the drugs, so I started reading the scientific litterature. I cut gluten, slowly decreased the antiseizure medications (following the guidelines of each drug company) and adding supplements. Today, I take supplements, period. No more antiseizure medications... No more seizure either.
Wow, that's incredible My brother suffered w granmalbseizeirs n died of Brain Cancer I hospices him till he passed I also suffer from severe nerve issues trying t tame it w vitamins New t this dr😮
Happy to say my Dr. does not fight me anymore about me not taking her medicine and living low carb because my results are so good. Especially I notice she listens to me and try’s to give me test I ask for and this is at a VA hospital, few people know that the Va is trying to open up outside health ideas.
This is my first time on your channel, and I gotta say I LOVE how laser focused this talk is-- all info, fast paced, no fluff, no stalling or stammering. Great stuff! Thanks doc!
I'm gonna stick with you, Dr.Osborne! The more i listen, the more i see you draw together all the systems involved, and bring out for the viewer, the total picture!. You are simply an excellent lecturer, and a humble Genius!
Very good overview of B1 (Thiamine) deficiency. B1 is essential for so many processes in the body. Other videos that are must-watch are from experts such as Chandler Marrs and Elliot Overton.
Love both of them! Have watched many hours of their talks! Megadosing b1 (with supportive supplements) helped me off Lyrica & greatly reduce pain narcotics
as for the last question regarding anxiety, I experienced anxiety and nausea when I mistakenly took B vitamins on an empty stomach.. when I take them after eating, all is well and I'm fine.. just wanted to mention that in case others who are deficient feel this effect after taking them before eating.. thanks so much for this information!
Yep. Not surprising ... it is due to the niacin . It’s ok still v good for you so just take that with food first. Later you will build tolerance to niacin. Means you didn’t have niacin for long time.
@@tomregan9628 so you are telling that niacin can remove bad side effects of increased metabolism after b1? if so then I don't need to worry about heart race in keto due to dropped blood sugar levels after taking b1. right?
I have idiopathic hypersomnia and a few years back I I was so fatigued not just the brain but my muscles felt like they ran on slow flowing syrup. They were heavy, I had no energy in them. I decided to try my horses supplement thiamine because the description sounded like I had a deficiency of that. It took three days and that muscular fatigue was completely gone! Placebo or real I don't know, it will never help for my IH diagnosis but to be rid of that feeling of my muscles aching, wonderful!
I hear ya been dealing w a nonspecific abstract sleep disorder W both, hyper n hypo, n was put on a drug t regulate it 23 years later doesn't work n Dr's have a real attitude about it Cannot sleep on my own nor does any otc Will have t vitamin up n meditate t conquer this problem Ur story was most interesting, cause I'm finding that Dr's know nothing about how the Brain works REGARDING SLEEP It's est that 1 on 4 ppl suffer from insomnia or sleep disorders in general😮
Yes! I've been through it all and by now it's 72 I'm still diabetic and struggling but no a lot of what not to put in my body to make things worse. I'm learning a lot from you here.!!!
Excellent video! I am taking high levels of benfotiamine and vit Bs and my weak painful legs are cured..all symptoms have disappeared! grandma from New Zealand???
@Taiwo Omotoshoonly take a ttfd. Like allithiamine. Crosses the blood brain barrier. It has no toxicity. Depends what your healing from. You could take up to 1000mcg across the day.
@@MrRAQ18 This is an extremely expensive option. I take 300mg of benfotiamine and a mega dose of B complex since megadosing individual B vitamins can create deficiencies in the others as they work synergistically.
Also I use a multi b complex in capsule form which I empty into drinks throughout the day. This enables the body to metabolise it efficiently without continuously expelling the excess via the kidneys. This method also helps to protect the kidneys to a certain extent.
are there any other supplements you take other than the b complex and benfo.? (and how long did it take for your issues to resolve?)....I too have some weakness/pain and edema in my legs and have started a similar regimen but also have included some high doses of magnesium, zinc and selenium to a lesser extent.
I have fixed pain in my feet and legs with Thiamine hydrochloride. $7 a bottle. B complex tablets make me feel ill. I'm going to use B complex tonic. See how that goes.
This is my first sitting in your lecture, there’s so much information to learn on B1 supplement which I’ve overlooked. Thank you for the detailed lesson both in depth and breadth, there’s some catching up to do for your previous lectures.
Immensely helpful lecture regarding B1 importance for the overall health status. Thanks Doc., for sharing your life-saving experience so we can learn more to take care of our own well-being. Hearing your reluctance regarding nutritional yeast I guess I'm going to reduce it to 25g/day. Keep going Doc., we need more passionate and inspiring integrative medicine torchbearers like you! 🙏
Another trigger for autoimmunity is bacteria in hidden dental infections! These infections can't easily be detected because they are inside a tooth, or in the microtubules in a rootcanaled tooth or in a cavitation which is a hole in the jawbone where bacteria can lived. Cavitations are the result of improperly extracted teeth where the ligament to the extracted tooth was left and putrefies under the tissue that grows over the extraction hole.
This sound like it's going to be really long, over an hour. I've learned a lot from Dr Mandell. Chiropractors and D.O.s are so much about how the body functions, where as many M.D.s seem to be just glorified pharmacists! I think this is going to be a good one.
Oh my goodness you’re a godsend for me I’m most definitely get this problem because I have celiac disease and it’s like I’ve been praying for this video you are so much help for me I can’t thank you enough may God bless you and I think God for sending you to me you explain this so well this is a God sent video for me thank you thank you thank you🥰🙏💜💕
I appreciate this presentation! Saving me hours searching the internet. Vitamin B1 is something that I am very interested in, i recently started supplementing with it and noticed a marked improvement in my vision. Several deficiencies you speak of are symptoms I have been correcting with lifestyle change.
Hi! First time to visit your class and WOW your teachings are so in depth! I'm 65 and have edema light to get worse. Avid tea and coffee drinker now I know to drink more water, less consumption of processed foods, fast food restaurants, microwave cooking and hot air frying as ALL have depleted vitamin B1. I'm MEDICATION FREE and want to stay clean. I'm supplementing with D, and recently started B12, Ashwaganda. I like to add a few others as I don't think our foods are as nutritional unless garden or farm raised. American regulation of some foods or products aren't as strict as some other countries. Thank you for your time and great knowledge of your program teaching as I enjoyed it!♥️🙏💯👍
Thiamine deficiency can also cause low blood pressure due to Dysautonomia. Read “Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition” by Lonsdale and Marrs
Mary Richards-Kallman I believe that I have a problem with my autonomic nervous system. Any good resource/ideas on dysautonomia. I can’t find hardly anything on this subject. Doctors know nothing and have basically told me it’s all in my head. I take benfotiamine. Been on keto for 4 years. Please help.
Dr Osborn could you please give us an updated to the topic of Osteoporosis? I understand that is not related to the actual topic about vitamins B, but the problem is that the system did not allowed us to send comments and questions. Really appreciate your willingness to educate us, your inputs are really invaluable. Thanks so much, God bless.
I have fibro and its gotten worse after 15 years. I live in Adelaide Australia. Im taking vit b 1 as of yesterday. Im glad i finally am learning this. Its been horrific. Im 63. I found spirulina stopped my urinary tract pain. If i dont take that i cant urinate every day.

Same here but lately I have been having stomach issues of not digesting food properly, anxiety, fear and depression. Also sciatic nerve. I am so afraid of doctors. One Doctor told me I had diabetes without giving me a test ti see if I had it. But was ready to write prescription for it. And I have no symptoms of diabetes.
I began taking B supplement a few months ago and feel so much better. Most noticeable is the reduction in fatigue. This is such good work that you are doing, thankyou!
Oh my goodness you have explained it so well I do believe I have this problem and I have been taking B1 with a LA and I can tell a big difference how much it helps me I just started taking it from listening to Dr. Berg
Auto Immune conditions can also be triggered by lingering unresolved complex trauma/ PTSD; often after experiencing an additional heavy loss (such as losing a loved one through death or divorce).
Most of docs are dumb I had low iron level since 6 years I really fuckedup they always check my haemoglobin and ferritin level always normal so I decide one day to any lab blood test and choose what kind test I want I choose iron then I shocked under 59 ug deficiency my level iron was 31 ug 🥲 than I take result to doc and she said it’s ok this not effect your energy 🥺 so I ignore her I take iron supplements my energy improved and cold feet and hand improved and foggy brain and dizzy all improvers I feel little better than before Cause I suffered 6 years : dizzy,fatigue,fog brain,heart beating fast and sometime slow and always tired ,it’s very hard to focus and weak mind So after 6 years am wasting my time and money to see docs 🥺 Wish for everyone to back in health and wellness 🌺
Same here too. I could hv heard atleast 20 years back..i am suffering fibro ..too muvh sufferings. Thanks to you. Your knowledge also sincere. Many are not interested, very soon they make patients psyche, if they cannt find any reason.
This video is fantastic! Brilliant presentation. I’ve been researching B1 deficiency and Tinnitus and it’s opened the largest can of worms. I have absolutely no doubt I have Vitamin B1 deficiency!❤
GOOD MORNING DR. OSBOURNE..I AM WENDY GITTENS AND I AM WATCHING YOUR VIDEO FROM BARBADOS IN THE CARIBBEAN. LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS...THEY ARE FULL OF VERY VALUABLE & INTERESTING INFORMATION. THANK YOU.
I solved psoriasis with lugol's iodine, hairline psoriasis more precisely, i didnt expect any thing but it really cleared up after years of have et. Tell this to someone who is suffering
❤❤❤ I am so glad to have been sent to you!! These symptoms are All mine!! 😢😭😭 Going to listen & read!! ❤Hugs to you!!🤗🥰😊🤗 I unfortunately have been through a lot! You give me hope! ❤️
Every time I watch your videos, it feels like I should go back to studying Medicine. Am currently not feeling well which is what brought me here in the first place. My colon is actually hurting now. My last blood test showed high bilirubin' around 32 .5 moul etc. My LDL I is also high Etc but this video is teachinge a lot My problems started years back when I took coffee along side pop corn and peanuts . Hell got let loose and ever since let's just say it has been from one issues to another.
Dr. Osborne, THANK YOU for this valuable information. I got your book several years ago, and it was a great guide for my family and friends! Many blessings!!+
Hello Dr Osborne my name is Keith I enjoy watching your videos and educating myself on nutrients thank you for your service and your time I really appreciate you. Charlestown Indiana.
Hello, from Karin in Melbourne Australia...I have Peripheral Neuropathy resulting from Chemo drugs. I have stopped all Chemo drugs completely, and hope to work with vitamins and natural healing, (at least I won't feel brain dead.). so thanking you very much for your kindness and energy.
Hi Dr. Osborne chiming in from Portland,OR I learned in my late 20's that I had hashimoto's so I went on levothyroxine. Then I had a hysterectomy, kept my ovaries, fast forward to mid fifties menopause and some time later I jumped on the vitamin band wagon as I had all my life these symptoms of depression, anxiety, Adhd, foggy brain, terrible memory went on various antidepressants even tried adderall none of has helped...so I just stopped every thing. I always felt like I had legitimate reasons for depression an anxiety, but As I am 62 white female at 5'2" 134lbs up or down a couple lbs I eat whatever I want. I try not to eat processed but I love pizza, cookies, ice cream and I'm failing here. I try to keep mealtimes at 8:16 but if I'm honest its probably closer to 12:12 keto just feels impossible. I don't want to die feeling like I've been robbed of my life...but I don't know what more I can do to try and fix it.
It's all up to you how badly you want to be healthy. Ether you keep eating all that terrible food and never improve. Or you stop it and feel amazing again! You can do it!
Years after bupass surgery, I find how big of a problem I created in my body! I have 90% of the symptoms of B deffiency! I have several issues stemming from a blown out back. Neuropathy has been my constant companion! So I have now got edema from it as well. They put me on Gabapentin and Furosemide and now we are fighting edema worse than before! I have been laid up for almost a year from surgeries on a broken foot. Since I have been physically retired, I have a few drinks to aid with back pain! Since politicians control my pain meds, I have used NSAIDS to get by. So on top of gaztric bypass I have shot myself literally in the foot! I have been feeling more and more tired! Now it all makes sense! Today I am making a big change! I hope I improve somewhat rapidly, although I am sure it will take a few weeks to build up B Vitamin levels!
@@joanneclark8256 some things are starting to improve. The ataxic gait is better, the brain fog is a little better. I have no stamina and if I get up and do things like take trash out and maybe vacuum and do some dishes I have to lay down and the next day I am just tired again! I added selenium, zinc and folic acid. I feel just a bit better and don't sleep 14 hours a day any more. I suspect it will still be 3 to 5 months until I am 70%. I remember having mono and it seemed like that took me 5-6 months to spring back from!
Fast Forward a year later, I found out I had sepsis! Was admitted to the ICU and had several courses of antibiotics. Most of my edema problems were stemming from undiagnosed infections. About 10 days after D/C from hospital, both of my heels broke out with ulcers from another infection!!! Now another month later, getting back up on my feet. Back to taking B1-500mg + 100mg Magnesium. Benfotiamine 600mg/day, B12 liquid Cyano/Adenesil, Methylcobalamine daily, Folic Acid, Zinc 50mg/day, D3 20,000iu, and high dose Iron, and most importantly I started on Probiotics and I am finally able to eat more than a few bites before feeling sick. I pray this all heals as well as it is going and I can get my life back!
Just found you. A couple of days ago I discovered some information about B - 1. So I am watching yours also in case I missed anything and to reinforce my memory. I live in northern California.
Bisquick does NOT contain Thiamine. Many of us have thought we've had SIBO over the years, so what do we do? cut out dairy (cereal) and breads (fortified with thiamine to fix this problem). So when things got bad, I'd cut out eating cereal and bread for lunches. I basically ate no thiamine and drank 3-5 12oz zero sugar drinks a day, with all that caffeine. Because I felt malnourished all the time, I ate a high carb diet.
Benfotiamine is similar to thiamine (vitamin B1), but is absorbed by the body better than thiamine. The body changes benfotiamine to thiamine. Since the body absorbs benfotiamine better than thiamine, benfotiamine can increase how much thiamine is in the body. Benfotiamine is Fat soluble B1
QUESTION: if you're not getting it into the cell or small intestine, what's the point of taking the vitamin? I have SO MANY of these issues. All connected. I HOPE you see this! Thank You
First time that I’m here watching you in this channel and thanks so much for sharing your information about the vitamin B1 Use. Unfortunately when you go to the doctor with some health problem it’s can be some simple just like that. having some deficiencies or over dose of some vitamin’s in your body. I appreciate your information that you share with all of us. God bless you for what you doing. 👍 by the way I subscriber to your channel because I like what I hear 👂 😊
I was today advised to watch a video about beriberi but it didn’t catch me, your video was in the “suggested” list as I was scrolling through as a crash course on B1. I didn’t watch the one I was advised to at all, instead I clicked on yours. The universe conspired to get me to watch your video. I can not tell you how many pieces of my jigsaw that watching this video has put into place. I will be on my way to present the suggestion of testing my B1 level as you suggested. My last blood results came back “unremarkable” but quite obviously something wrong and knowing this will not show my B1 level correctly makes so much sense now ! From a test done on inflammation on the bowel the point they worry would have been 30. Mine was over 400! . Thank you so much for this video, the information provided is everything I have needed to hear from a doctor.
This is crazy. Been working in hospital for 30 years and not ever even once did I ever hear of or hear it talked about was checking a patients B levels.
Do we "inherit" deficiencies in the womb that stay with us throughout life? My mother had MS while I was in gestation and I've always had energy and pain issues. Thank you for all the information.
Hi Dr. Osborne Thank you so much for this in depth video. I am curious about your recommendation on Benfotiamine. You recommended 50-150mg. I looked at the supplement that you offer, and it is 300mg. I have had neuropathy for over 2 decades. Not sure if it was caused due to diet or post spinal surgery, but I would like to understand if it is safe to take the higher, does you offer. Thank you again!
I've been taking 1,200 mgs.of benfotiamine for about a month, after years of taking only 150 mgs. with no noticeable results. At 600 mgs., I finally got help with neuropathy, but it took 1,200 to get help with depression. If you take a basic B complex at a different meal than the benfotiamine to make sure you avoid an imbalance, you should be okay. We are all different, and I must take large doses of a medicine that can cause problems, so that may be why I need so much. EONutrition chnl. has videos on high dose B1.
PLEASE KEEP UP YOUR FANTASTIC INFORMATIVE VIDEOS, YOU NAILED SOME OF MY ISSUES FOR FREE, MEANWHILE I HAVE SPENT CLOSE TO A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS TRYING TO GET WELL.
This was the most comprehensive lecture on Thiamine yet,..yes Dr.Osbourne you've nailed it! THANKYOU! I've got Benfotiamine the fat soluable form..but don't yet know if it's helping..I also have the MTHFR form of B- complex, which is good.
Yeah, I was drinking 2 cups of coffee in the am and then at least one more mid afternoon, sometimes 2. Then every night 2-3 beers. It didn't seem like much, but I certainly realize now that it was. I didn't eat that unhealthy, but at the same time I didn't eat great, and was at least 30 pounds overweight. I've changed all that now, I am taking a few vitamin supplements as well. Including a vitamin B complex. Feeling better these days and have lost 15 pounds... I must admit we are a very unhealthy society. Thank you for the video good sir.
Someone tested instant pot temps and they stay below 250 degrees F at all times...so it’s a great way to avoid destroying nutrients but still make sure your meat is safely cooked. 37:00
I'm from Toronto, 🍁 Canada. 🇨🇦 Currently watching and listening to you from Mumbai, India. 🇮🇳 I am Type 2 diabetic and have Periferal Neuropathy in my feet and legs.
Thank you so much for your very informative vid. I was just surfing through you tube and this came up and just few minutes in had an aha moment regarding my own mystery symptoms but more so my Dad. He has many symptoms but has /does everything on the what causes b1 deficiency list😮. He definitely not going to change but I could at least sneak it into his diet. B complex I'd assume. Might be interesting observational experiment for me anyway 👍
Very intelligent DR DO YOU HAVE YOUR OFFICE IN NYC, ? Wish every Dr could see this and learn how to treat there patients and save them from pain and suffering 😊
I started Benfotiamin last week and I called a friend immediately and told her this supplement started working right away I took it 2 a day one in a the morning then again at night. I 1:08:44 now take only in the morning tomorrow I start vestibular nerve testing I had a massive stroke 12 yrs avo all strokes were in my cerebrum since taking in the zI do not feel like my head is swimming Stroke survivors should try this when released from the hospital
I've had erythromylalgia for 18 years which is a secondary symptoms of neuropathy I understand, neurological symptoms for many years since 17 and problems with my heart so tachycardia, central sleep apnea, anxiety and depression with no explanation. In 2019 I got severe ataxia and burning all over. I was referred to a neurologist in the UK it took a year of suffering to get an appointment and straight away the response was to deny me a nerve conduction test and tell me that I may never get a diagnosis. I had an MRI and it's not MS. Instead of testing me for the symptoms and listening he has come to the opinion it's FND (functional neurological disorder) with absolutely no evidence whatsoever and has denied tests before doing this. My own history is i've had a restricted diet since my teens, then chronic bulimia from 19 until 27 accompanied with anxiety and depression and chronic alcohol abuse (not alcoholism) so two or three bottles of wine on an empty stomach two or three times a week. Due to the symptoms I was no longer coping and used alcohol from depression. I do not eat fortified food cereals or grains as a lot of people in my family have celiac and I suspect this. I mostly only drink coffee or sugar free energy drinks to get through the horrific fatigue and being a student and working for many years before I got ataxia. Im also a chronic user of NSAIDS. I've stopped drinking and stopped the bulimia now but my neurologist ignored all this information and scoffed at me that I suggested I might have neuropathy from a deficiency (b12 or similar) He's slapped a FND label on me without taking into account erythromylalgia, my history and without doing correct tests I am still suffering, and having seizures now, central sleep apnea, and struggle terribly with my short term memory I forget to finish sentences even. Am I being fobbed off by this Dr? I have no one to ask and feel like I'm dying. I really suspect b1 deficiency, I already had a folate deficiency before all of this.
No breads Processed sugars either Do healthy keto At least 18+ hours daily intermitted fasting. Every two weeks fo 48 hour fast. 4-6 months your on top
I just started taking B1 & B6 with the seizure medication I wasn’t eating or drinking anything in the morning I didn’t get any food until about 4 hours after I got up in the morning
Hashimoto disease is autoimmune disease, and all autoimmune diseases are actually causing or are the result of Vit. B1 deficiency. It is scientifically proven. I disagree with the comment that there is no connection between Hashimoto and B1 deficiency.
OC, in past. Was not tested for Vit B1 deficiency, until I started Menopause, & I began hormone replacement with both estrogen & progesterone replacement.
I am listing ! Thank you for all this information! You just made me so much wiser , trying to eat better , walking , didn’t know this stuff , it’s like an ho moment ! Just thanks for all information, so helpful ,
It amazes me as an ICU RN that I see many of these patients everyday. But only alcoholics get B1 and Folate supplements. No one else. As I’ve been learning over past 6-9 months is that many of our diagnoses can be treated with a more holistic approach. Going against big pharmaceutical companies philosophy. And profits.
That's like barbera O'Neill videos .. she went holistic ..and the author of fast like a girl.. our cicadian rythem..our bodys can heal till the day we die ..and repair our dna ..and those ladies really helped me not to die at 53 .after decades of hell from b1 deficiency or not understanding I need minerals like to activate my cell to use it I need water 4 cups per cup a coffee ..n tea n all kinds of things ..our diets suck or not knowing these little things like soil depletion.. like chemicals in our foods.. like all that. .or how the body can activate those stem cells...or kowi fruit or green tea or black tea n the stem cells .. changeling our alkaline or acid ph with a little lemon ..simple stuff .. magnesium or Redmond salts Epsom salts ..ext ..even in our crops adding some Epsom salts ..just so mutch on barbers channel and then I love this one too I found. After her I'm like yes god..!! Thankyou jesus for the answer to a prayer ..bcuz b1 deficiency is a stressed which causes people to self medicate or drink n re..dehydrate n xyz.. just a cycle.. I watched my mother go through all he said n end up a sceliton bcuz her doctors did exactly what he said they do ..per batum..so thank God he makes these videos.. ! Bless these guys steppin out there telling the truth..!
Everything You discussing is what IAM on aspecially the diuretics not easy had heart failure couple years back also on Metformin thanks doctorMuch appreciated.iam learning so much at my old age age asage
@@SandraPeters-sz4sj so my question is not to be sticking my nose into your health , but is your EF or ejection fraction less then 60%? If so you are being treated correctly. But if EF is 60-65% you may look into what he was saying about B1 deficiency. They have same symptoms as each other.
Your opinions on this will never be appreciated or taken with a grain of salt because B1 doesn’t make money and might cure too easily. I pray you help as much as you can!!
@@thechickincharge1073 first thanks for the prayer! I do care. I see people being treated for something that with diagnostic tests done conflict with diagnosis. So being treated with medication that have side effects and telling them that their heart sucks is damaging to their emotional and psychological health. And does nothing to fix root cause. And yes I know big pharm has a lot to do with this which is wrong. But if everyone shares maybe a few can be healed by a cheap fix.
Living the nightmare of wet, dry, and GI thiamine deficiency right now. This has been the most challenging health issue to get diagnosed that I have experienced. It mimics so many diseases. I just had the bloodwork for the serum B1 test yesterday; unfortunately, until I watched this video, I didn't know that there's a B1 deficiency test at the cellular level called ETAC which is even more accurate. I will continue to advocate for myself and I will go down swinging if I have to. Lord Jesus help me please. 💕🙏
How you feel did you do the test and hope you feel better now
im dealing with the same thing and dr bills crazy that do nothin, layme disease, mold fatigue. look up eliot nutriotn.

I took 750mg of Benfotiamine after about 3 months of blurry vision. I’m type 1 Diabetic. Next morning I woke up with crystal clear vision. Lower stress and much more energy
What brand did you get & from where? I need to get some...thx! Glad it worked for you.
@@jenny-wc8qy I think it’s the life extension brand. Blue bottle that says mega Benfotiamine. 250 mg per capsule. I took 750 mg the first few days but it made me almost too relaxed. So i went down to 500mg and feel better. I cant believe how well it works. Hope it works for you too

Thiamine is water-soluble, which means it has trouble crossing the fat layer that forms the outside of each cell. *_Benfotiamine_* is the fat-soluble form that is easily absorbed into the cell (3 to 5 times more easily), where it is converted into thiamine. Because benfotiamine is more bioavailable than thiamine, it provides higher levels of thiamine within the brain, liver, kidney, and all muscle tissues.
Where can Benfotiamine be purchased?
Amazon
Bifotuamine very expensive in South Africa and not easy available

I have personally found help with two of my important health problems by taking B1. It has helped with my sleep apnea and overactive bladder.
Same here. I sleep much better without waking up gasping for breath. Are you taking thiamine or benfothiamine?
The same with me. I had severe shortness of breath while sleeping. Taking vitamin B1 before bed saves me from that! I found out a month ago that I’m deficient.
Allopathic Doctors need to take a Nutritional Therapy Course from You and Dr. Eric Berg.... Both of you are wonderful Teachers. Why don't Allopathic Doctors know these things or if they do why don't they share this information with their patients. What a game changer to know this... Thank you so much !
Simple remedies are not profitable
Conflict of interest.
Yes Berg is educational
The good ones do know this. Prescribed it for me
And Dr. ALAN MANDEL, Dr. Axe, DR. STAN ECBERG & DR. GUNDRY. I QUIT going to doctors for help around 2009 after hearing Dr. Gundry then all these wonderful true Healthcare people. Today I found Dr. OSBOURNE. I'm forever thankful to these my heros.
I am only 11 minutes into your video and I am already having some puzzle pieces fit together. Sorry in advance for this long history: I’m a 56 year old male. I’m not what you’d call obese or really even overweight. I am 5’11” and 195lbs. I’ve struggled for years with hypertension/high cholesterol and have been on blood pressure meds since my late 20sor early 30s. I’ve been diagnosed my multiple different doctors with Myofascial pain syndrome as well as chronic fatigue syndrome. Some doctors have called it fibromyalgia and connective tissue disorder. My rheumatologist tested me for my ANA levels and they came back with slight elevations for lupus symptoms. 16 months ago I had quadruple bypass open-heart surgery. Two months ago I did a sleep study and they found that I had sleep apnea and now I am trying to adjust to a CPAP machine which is not going well. Then a video popped up in my feed that suggested that I might have B1 deficiencies which can cause sleep apnea. I just found your video and hope that I may find additional possible answers to my condition.
Definitely start taking B1. Dr Berg also has videos on this.
How is it going now? Hope you are doing well!
@@hernancoronel Unfortuantely slightly worse. I can't seem to find answers.

@@hernancoronel thank you! I certainly will.
I've been struggling with health issues since September of 2022. It hit me like a rock! I've been to the ER and finally was able to get health insurance. I had edema in my left leg. Trouble sleeping. Brain fog. Blood pressure issues. Sudden random dizziness. Intestinal problems. Mild depression.
My leg swelled up so bad that I'd have to rap it from my ankle to my mid thye .
Im 48. A waitress and work long hours. So eating healthy and enough food has been a battle.
At the ER I got diagnosed with Sciatica. I did have it but it was the result of the edema. I was given a steroid ,muscle relaxers and pain killers. It helped but it returned as soon as they weren't available anymore.
As soon asI got my health insurance I scheduled an appointment for a doctor's appointment. The staff were amazing but after my visit I didn't feel my doctor was truly listening to me. I explained everything and the journey I've been through and after her exam she took some blood work. When my results came in I ,after my own research,shared it with my holistic doctor friend. She listened and was way more concerned about my doctor's approach and my blood work. The doctor ,after my physical exam stated I had injured my leg and that was the result of my pain and swelling. I knew this was false because I could feel something in my tissues. I know my body.
My blood work showed my cholesterol was a bit high for my age. My platelets were just above normal.
The doctor wanted to put me on muscle relaxers and a staten. I didn't pick up the prescription from the pharmacy. I was determined to figure out what was wrong. All my symptoms pointed to one thing.
It's a B1 issue. As soon as I took it within an hour literally all my pain in my leg and swelling was gone!
I have an un diagnosed celiacs disease. I know now that cheating isnt worth it anymore.
It blows my mind how something so simple can destroy your livelihood! I wish more doctor's understood how nutrition plays such a roll in your health. Prescribing meds should be a last resort.
That was a great post
Don't know why u didn't get a million hits😮
Hi , what supplement from which brand did you take and which dosage?
I wonder if maybe covid depletes B1 because I read a lot of stories about people with breathing symptoms and symptoms like you who took B1 and it was gone
@@climax1233 I just look for a organic option with no unnecessary additives. The dosage from my research really depends on the individual. I've always had a high tolerance to medication and needed more vitamins than the recommended dose for most things. So I opted for the higher dose and added more daily. People can have a genetic enzyme disorder that can create the deficiency also. That is were I believe I land on this issue. You can get tested but I chose not to because of my results.
Also from my research I read how with some people that the thiamine B1,stopped working. It's because it's water soluble so it gets extracted fast from your body. It seems to be happening to me . However there is a stronger version that your body is able to keep longer so I've ordered that. Benfotiamine.
I think part of my relapse is the carbs that I sometimes eat. Carbs and sugar depletes your B1. I was also on the Carnivore diet so that helped.I stopped. I'm returning to it as of now.
It's been hard to reprogram my brain about food and nutrition. I realize we've been lied to and that eventually it will catch up to you .
@@nordic7286 Thx a lot for your information. I wish you good luck and maybe you will find the main reason for your problems
I don't think docs get much training on nutrition in med school
Another ICU RN here and I’m seeing such an uptick in “autoimmune “ dis-eased humans. Thiamine mainly prescribed for alcohol abuse with no B1 levels ever checked. Only B12 , folate levels are being checked around So Cal area hospitals. Thanks for this enlightening information 🙏🏻come to think of it, no Vitamin C given for sepsis either 🤷♀
You are seeing this because of the Covid vaccines.. I have been listening to so many doctors talk about this..
I student doctor told me there’s no way to check B vitamins other than B12 and D. I know that’s a lie!

My husband just went the last 2 years through hell. When it started I did not know what hit me (him). I have received a spiritual message from a friend of ours saying that there is something going on with his vagus nerve and still it took 2 years to finally find an answer to so many symptoms. The heart, the lungs, the kidneys and his digestive tract were all effected. But there is hope. I am positive that this kind of medical system will not survive much longer. In fact I believe it will be the first to go.

After watching vitamin B deficiency videos, I bought a whole foods based B-complex vitamin. I suffer from Lyme and I thought most of my symptoms were because of Lyme, but I realized after watching B vitamin videos that I'm deficient.

I'm gonna stick with you, Dr.Osborne! The more i listen, the more i see you draw together all the systems involved, and bring out for the viewer, the total picture!. You are simply an excellent lecturer, and a humble Genius!
Very good overview of B1 (Thiamine) deficiency. B1 is essential for so many processes in the body. Other videos that are must-watch are from experts such as Chandler Marrs and Elliot Overton.
Love both of them! Have watched many hours of their talks! Megadosing b1 (with supportive supplements) helped me off Lyrica & greatly reduce pain narcotics
AND Dr Eric Berg
as for the last question regarding anxiety, I experienced anxiety and nausea when I mistakenly took B vitamins on an empty stomach.. when I take them after eating, all is well and I'm fine.. just wanted to mention that in case others who are deficient feel this effect after taking them before eating.. thanks so much for this information!
Yep. Not surprising ... it is due to the niacin . It’s ok still v good for you so just take that with food first. Later you will build tolerance to niacin. Means you didn’t have niacin for long time.
I discovered you don't even have to be deficient in B1 to be effected. It can be an enzymatic problem.
@@tomregan9628 so you are telling that niacin can remove bad side effects of increased metabolism after b1?
if so then I don't need to worry about heart race in keto due to dropped blood sugar levels after taking b1. right?

Excellent video! I am taking high levels of benfotiamine and vit Bs and my weak painful legs are cured..all symptoms have disappeared! grandma from New Zealand???
@Taiwo Omotoshoonly take a ttfd. Like allithiamine. Crosses the blood brain barrier. It has no toxicity. Depends what your healing from. You could take up to 1000mcg across the day.
@@MrRAQ18 This is an extremely expensive option. I take 300mg of benfotiamine and a mega dose of B complex since megadosing individual B vitamins can create deficiencies in the others as they work synergistically.
Also I use a multi b complex in capsule form which I empty into drinks throughout the day. This enables the body to metabolise it efficiently without continuously expelling the excess via the kidneys. This method also helps to protect the kidneys to a certain extent.
are there any other supplements you take other than the b complex and benfo.? (and how long did it take for your issues to resolve?)....I too have some weakness/pain and edema in my legs and have started a similar regimen but also have included some high doses of magnesium, zinc and selenium to a lesser extent.
I have fixed pain in my feet and legs with Thiamine hydrochloride. $7 a bottle. B complex tablets make me feel ill. I'm going to use B complex tonic. See how that goes.
This is my first sitting in your lecture, there’s so much information to learn on B1 supplement which I’ve overlooked. Thank you for the detailed lesson both in depth and breadth, there’s some catching up to do for your previous lectures.
Immensely helpful lecture regarding B1 importance for the overall health status. Thanks Doc., for sharing your life-saving experience so we can learn more to take care of our own well-being. Hearing your reluctance regarding nutritional yeast I guess I'm going to reduce it to 25g/day. Keep going Doc., we need more passionate and inspiring integrative medicine torchbearers like you! 🙏
Another trigger for autoimmunity is bacteria in hidden dental infections! These infections can't easily be detected because they are inside a tooth, or in the microtubules in a rootcanaled tooth or in a cavitation which is a hole in the jawbone where bacteria can lived. Cavitations are the result of improperly extracted teeth where the ligament to the extracted tooth was left and putrefies under the tissue that grows over the extraction hole.
Wow thats interesting . How would one go about clearing that up .
This sound like it's going to be really long, over an hour. I've learned a lot from Dr Mandell. Chiropractors and D.O.s are so much about how the body functions, where as many M.D.s seem to be just glorified pharmacists! I think this is going to be a good one.

You’re absolutely right that’s why I don’t go to no doctors and I don’t take no prescriptions
Same here but lately I have been having stomach issues of not digesting food properly, anxiety, fear and depression. Also sciatic nerve. I am so afraid of doctors. One Doctor told me I had diabetes without giving me a test ti see if I had it. But was ready to write prescription for it. And I have no symptoms of diabetes.
I AM TOTALLY IMPRESSED AT THE LEVEL OF YOUR AMAZING KNOWLEDGE OF HUMAN BIOLOGICAL NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES - IM ADDICTED TO THIS EDUCATIONAL VIDEOS
I began taking B supplement a few months ago and feel so much better.
Most noticeable is the reduction in fatigue.
This is such good work that you are doing, thankyou!
Oh my goodness you have explained it so well I do believe I have this problem and I have been taking B1 with a LA and I can tell a big difference how much it helps me I just started taking it from listening to Dr. Berg

Auto Immune conditions can also be triggered by lingering unresolved complex trauma/ PTSD; often after experiencing an additional heavy loss (such as losing a loved one through death or divorce).
I wish I had heard this 30 or 40 years ago.
No UA-cam, doctor/pharmacist dependant
Most of docs are dumb I had low iron level since 6 years I really fuckedup they always check my haemoglobin and ferritin level always normal so I decide one day to any lab blood test and choose what kind test I want I choose iron then I shocked under 59 ug deficiency my level iron was 31 ug 🥲 than I take result to doc and she said it’s ok this not effect your energy 🥺 so I ignore her I take iron supplements my energy improved and cold feet and hand improved and foggy brain and dizzy all improvers I feel little better than before
Cause I suffered 6 years : dizzy,fatigue,fog brain,heart beating fast and sometime slow and always tired ,it’s very hard to focus and weak mind
So after 6 years am wasting my time and money to see docs 🥺
Wish for everyone to back in health and wellness 🌺
, 😭

This video is fantastic! Brilliant presentation. I’ve been researching B1 deficiency and Tinnitus and it’s opened the largest can of worms. I have absolutely no doubt I have Vitamin B1 deficiency!❤

.5 moul etc. My LDL I is also high
Etc but this video is teachinge a lot
My problems started years back when I took coffee along side pop corn and peanuts . Hell got let loose and ever since let's just say it has been from one issues to another.
Look into Andreas moritz liver flush
Dr. Osborne, THANK YOU for this valuable information. I got your book several years ago, and it was a great guide for my family and friends! Many blessings!!+
Thank you, Doctor Osborne for all your videos .I get more information from you, then My doctors and my nutritionist.
Hello Dr Osborne my name is Keith I enjoy watching your videos and educating myself on nutrients thank you for your service and your time I really appreciate you. Charlestown Indiana.
Hello, from Karin in Melbourne Australia...I have Peripheral Neuropathy resulting from Chemo drugs. I have stopped all Chemo drugs completely, and hope to work with vitamins and natural healing, (at least I won't feel brain dead.). so thanking you very much for your kindness and energy.
Hi Dr. Osborne chiming in from Portland,OR I learned in my late 20's that I had hashimoto's so I went on levothyroxine. Then I had a hysterectomy, kept my ovaries, fast forward to mid fifties menopause and some time later I jumped on the vitamin band wagon as I had all my life these symptoms of depression, anxiety, Adhd, foggy brain, terrible memory went on various antidepressants even tried adderall none of has helped...so I just stopped every thing. I always felt like I had legitimate reasons for depression an anxiety, but As I am 62 white female at 5'2" 134lbs up or down a couple lbs I eat whatever I want. I try not to eat processed but I love pizza, cookies, ice cream and I'm failing here. I try to keep mealtimes at 8:16 but if I'm honest its probably closer to 12:12 keto just feels impossible. I don't want to die feeling like I've been robbed of my life...but I don't know what more I can do to try and fix it.
It's all up to you how badly you want to be healthy. Ether you keep eating all that terrible food and never improve. Or you stop it and feel amazing again! You can do it!
Excellent job Dr Osbourne, very good information I just bought your book, no grain no pain ,God bless you ,and thank you
Years after bupass surgery, I find how big of a problem I created in my body! I have 90% of the symptoms of B deffiency! I have several issues stemming from a blown out back. Neuropathy has been my constant companion! So I have now got edema from it as well. They put me on Gabapentin and Furosemide and now we are fighting edema worse than before! I have been laid up for almost a year from surgeries on a broken foot. Since I have been physically retired, I have a few drinks to aid with back pain! Since politicians control my pain meds, I have used NSAIDS to get by. So on top of gaztric bypass I have shot myself literally in the foot! I have been feeling more and more tired! Now it all makes sense! Today I am making a big change! I hope I improve somewhat rapidly, although I am sure it will take a few weeks to build up B Vitamin levels!
How are you
What did you chg
@@joanneclark8256 some things are starting to improve. The ataxic gait is better, the brain fog is a little better. I have no stamina and if I get up and do things like take trash out and maybe vacuum and do some dishes I have to lay down and the next day I am just tired again! I added selenium, zinc and folic acid. I feel just a bit better and don't sleep 14 hours a day any more. I suspect it will still be 3 to 5 months until I am 70%. I remember having mono and it seemed like that took me 5-6 months to spring back from!
Fast Forward a year later, I found out I had sepsis! Was admitted to the ICU and had several courses of antibiotics. Most of my edema problems were stemming from undiagnosed infections. About 10 days after D/C from hospital, both of my heels broke out with ulcers from another infection!!!
Now another month later, getting back up on my feet. Back to taking B1-500mg + 100mg Magnesium. Benfotiamine 600mg/day, B12 liquid Cyano/Adenesil, Methylcobalamine daily, Folic Acid, Zinc 50mg/day, D3 20,000iu, and high dose Iron, and most importantly I started on Probiotics and I am finally able to eat more than a few bites before feeling sick. I pray this all heals as well as it is going and I can get my life back!
Still watching on the ides of March 2023. Thank you so much for this valuable information!
Just found you. A couple of days ago I discovered some information about B - 1. So I am watching yours also in case I missed anything and to reinforce my memory. I live in northern California.
Bisquick does NOT contain Thiamine. Many of us have thought we've had SIBO over the years, so what do we do? cut out dairy (cereal) and breads (fortified with thiamine to fix this problem). So when things got bad, I'd cut out eating cereal and bread for lunches. I basically ate no thiamine and drank 3-5 12oz zero sugar drinks a day, with all that caffeine. Because I felt malnourished all the time, I ate a high carb diet.
Benfotiamine is similar to thiamine (vitamin B1), but is absorbed by the body better than thiamine. The body changes benfotiamine to thiamine. Since the body absorbs benfotiamine better than thiamine, benfotiamine can increase how much thiamine is in the body. Benfotiamine is Fat soluble B1
Good info..
QUESTION: if you're not getting it into the cell or small intestine, what's the point of taking the vitamin? I have SO MANY of these issues. All connected. I HOPE you see this! Thank You
I have been going to vitamin infusion centers.... Wish I could afford to do it more often I try to do it every 4 months.
I took vitamin D and my levels changed in blood , increased a lot whats ur point here ?
This good Docor tells the truth and he's helping people see 2020
First time that I’m here watching you in this channel and thanks so much for sharing your information about the vitamin B1 Use. Unfortunately when you go to the doctor with some health problem it’s can be some simple just like that. having some deficiencies or over dose of some vitamin’s in your body. I appreciate your information that you share with all of us. God bless you for what you doing. 👍 by the way I subscriber to your channel because I like what I hear 👂 😊
I was today advised to watch a video about beriberi but it didn’t catch me, your video was in the “suggested” list as I was scrolling through as a crash course on B1. I didn’t watch the one I was advised to at all, instead I clicked on yours.
The universe conspired to get me to watch your video. I can not tell you how many pieces of my jigsaw that watching this video has put into place. I will be on my way to present the suggestion of testing my B1 level as you suggested. My last blood results came back “unremarkable” but quite obviously something wrong and knowing this will not show my B1 level correctly makes so much sense now !
From a test done on inflammation on the bowel the point they worry would have been 30. Mine was over 400! . Thank you so much for this video, the information provided is everything I have needed to hear from a doctor.
This is crazy. Been working in hospital for 30 years and not ever even once did I ever hear of or hear it talked about was checking a patients B levels.
Do we "inherit" deficiencies in the womb that stay with us throughout life? My mother had MS while I was in gestation and I've always had energy and pain issues. Thank you for all the information.
Yes
I really like the way you gave an overview at the beginning that was clear.
Hi Dr. Osborne Thank you so much for this in depth video. I am curious about your recommendation on Benfotiamine. You recommended 50-150mg. I looked at the supplement that you offer, and it is 300mg. I have had neuropathy for over 2 decades. Not sure if it was caused due to diet or post spinal surgery, but I would like to understand if it is safe to take the higher, does you offer. Thank you again!
I've been taking 1,200 mgs.of benfotiamine for about a month, after years of taking only 150 mgs. with no noticeable results. At 600 mgs., I finally got help with neuropathy, but it took 1,200 to get help with depression. If you take a basic B complex at a different meal than the benfotiamine to make sure you avoid an imbalance, you should be okay. We are all different, and I must take large doses of a medicine that can cause problems, so that may be why I need so much. EONutrition chnl. has videos on high dose B1.
Therapeutic doses are 300-600 mg. I just started on 300 mg.
PLEASE KEEP UP YOUR FANTASTIC INFORMATIVE VIDEOS, YOU NAILED SOME OF MY ISSUES FOR FREE, MEANWHILE I HAVE SPENT CLOSE TO A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS TRYING TO GET WELL.
This was the most comprehensive lecture
on Thiamine yet,..yes Dr.Osbourne you've nailed it! THANKYOU!
I've got Benfotiamine the fat soluable form..but don't yet know if it's helping..I also have the MTHFR form of B- complex, which is good.
Me, too
Me,too! Just started today
Thanks for an amazing presentation. You show the links between possible health problems and diet/medications so clearly. Thanks again.
Thank you Dr Osborne this very informative. My goodness this is so serious issue. Thank you again. Yes I see the connections .
Yeah, I was drinking 2 cups of coffee in the am and then at least one more mid afternoon, sometimes 2. Then every night 2-3 beers. It didn't seem like much, but I certainly realize now that it was. I didn't eat that unhealthy, but at the same time I didn't eat great, and was at least 30 pounds overweight. I've changed all that now, I am taking a few vitamin supplements as well. Including a vitamin B complex. Feeling better these days and have lost 15 pounds... I must admit we are a very unhealthy society. Thank you for the video good sir.
Someone tested instant pot temps and they stay below 250 degrees F at all times...so it’s a great way to avoid destroying nutrients but still make sure your meat is safely cooked.

Greetings from Sardegna Dr.! Thank you for this very clear video. You are so patient. Thank you and All the best to you!
It's not just men who avoid doctors. In today's world there isn't alot of trust. Thank you for your info!
Leading cause of death
Could it possibly be due to everything being a lie ?
Amazing information! Very Brilliant information! Thank you Doctor.
GOD BLESS you!!
I'm from Toronto, 🍁 Canada. 🇨🇦 Currently watching and listening to you from Mumbai, India. 🇮🇳 I am Type 2 diabetic and have Periferal Neuropathy in my feet and legs.
Exceptional presentation per usual. Thank you
Thank you very much for the information.GOD
BLESS YOU.
Thank you so much for your very informative vid. I was just surfing through you tube and this came up and just few minutes in had an aha moment regarding my own mystery symptoms but more so my Dad. He has many symptoms but has /does everything on the what causes b1 deficiency list😮. He definitely not going to change but I could at least sneak it into his diet. B complex I'd assume. Might be interesting observational experiment for me anyway 👍
Paulanne I'm watching from Georgia . I was diagnosed with heart failure, hypo thyroid, a fib heart rate,high cholesterol, high blood pressure,
Thank you so much Peter Osborne. Bless you.
Very intelligent DR DO YOU HAVE YOUR OFFICE IN NYC, ? Wish every Dr could see this and learn how to treat there patients and save them from pain and suffering 😊
Many thanks from Stockholm, Sweden 🇸🇪
I started Benfotiamin last week and I called a friend immediately and told her this supplement started working right away I took it 2 a day one in a the morning then again at night. I 1:08:44 now take only in the morning tomorrow I start vestibular nerve testing I had a massive stroke 12 yrs avo all strokes were in my cerebrum since taking in the zI do not feel like my head is swimming Stroke survivors should try this when released from the hospital
I've had erythromylalgia for 18 years which is a secondary symptoms of neuropathy I understand, neurological symptoms for many years since 17 and problems with my heart so tachycardia, central sleep apnea, anxiety and depression with no explanation. In 2019 I got severe ataxia and burning all over.
I was referred to a neurologist in the UK it took a year of suffering to get an appointment and straight away the response was to deny me a nerve conduction test and tell me that I may never get a diagnosis. I had an MRI and it's not MS. Instead of testing me for the symptoms and listening he has come to the opinion it's FND (functional neurological disorder) with absolutely no evidence whatsoever and has denied tests before doing this.
My own history is i've had a restricted diet since my teens, then chronic bulimia from 19 until 27 accompanied with anxiety and depression and chronic alcohol abuse (not alcoholism) so two or three bottles of wine on an empty stomach two or three times a week. Due to the symptoms I was no longer coping and used alcohol from depression. I do not eat fortified food cereals or grains as a lot of people in my family have celiac and I suspect this. I mostly only drink coffee or sugar free energy drinks to get through the horrific fatigue and being a student and working for many years before I got ataxia. Im also a chronic user of NSAIDS. I've stopped drinking and stopped the bulimia now but my neurologist ignored all this information and scoffed at me that I suggested I might have neuropathy from a deficiency (b12 or similar)
He's slapped a FND label on me without taking into account erythromylalgia, my history and without doing correct tests
I am still suffering, and having seizures now, central sleep apnea, and struggle terribly with my short term memory I forget to finish sentences even.
Am I being fobbed off by this Dr?
I have no one to ask and feel like I'm dying.
I really suspect b1 deficiency, I already had a folate deficiency before all of this.
Yes you need to take a lot of vitamins and take good care of yourself
Stop drinking alkohol and coffe, takę vitaminB 1 and you gone see, start nów, Be you Doctor for youself
No breads
Processed sugars either
Do healthy keto
At least 18+ hours daily intermitted fasting.
Every two weeks fo 48 hour fast.
4-6 months your on top
Praying you took a b complex high in thiamine
Add Gall Bladder problems to lack of natural (allithiamine) B1. Many gallbladders are removed because of B1 deficiency.
I just started taking B1 & B6 with the seizure medication I wasn’t eating or drinking anything in the morning I didn’t get any food until about 4 hours after I got up in the morning
Listening from New Jersey. I just started reading about B1. My doctor just told me I need it. Trying it for restless leg syndrome.
Hashimoto disease is autoimmune disease, and all autoimmune diseases are actually causing or are the result of Vit. B1 deficiency. It is scientifically proven. I disagree with the comment that there is no connection between Hashimoto and B1 deficiency.
OC, in past. Was not tested for Vit B1 deficiency, until I started Menopause, & I began hormone replacement with both estrogen & progesterone replacement.
