One of the nutrients that is most depleted by a high carbohydrate diet is thiamine (vitamin B1). Beriberi is the disease of severe thiamine deficiency. Many people have a subclinical level of thiamine deficiency. It’s called the great mimicker, because of its ability to mimic a variety of other diseases.
Vitamin B1 helps make the myelin sheath that protects your nerves. If you’re a diabetic, your high sugar level oxidizes the protective fatty layer around the cell. B1 helps protect this layer. If you develop peripheral neuropathy, you can take B1 to remedy it. I recommend the fat soluble form called benfotiamine. It’s excellent for neurological conditions.
Thiamine protects your cell’s mitochondria from high sugar damage. It works together with magnesium to help create energy for your body. When you’re deficient, you become fatigued. This has implications for remedying keto fatigue when you first go on a keto diet. Taking vitamin B1 along with other B vitamins will bring your energy up when you’re in keto adaptation.
B1 is considered a nerve vitamin because it creates so many problems with your nerves if you’re deficient.
The more carbohydrates you eat, the more B1 deficient you’re likely to be. If you don’t have enough B1, lactic acid builds up, changing your pH and your breathing. (Lactic acid buildup is also a side effect of metformin.) You’ll also experience issues with your cardiovascular and respiratory functions, such as enlarged heart and edema.
To detect a deficiency by lab test, you need a very specific one called a transketolase test. It’s expensive, and hard to get. Much easier to just take vitamin B1 supplements.
You can experience digestive system problems such as GERD, and a host of other weird symptoms. Take thiamine, and see if you feel better, or if these symptoms go away. I recommend you take nutritional yeast along with a supplement, in order to get a range of B vitamins. This will support both your autonomic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
I encourage you to remedy your thiamine deficiency to improve your health.
