Vitamin B1 – significant B-group vitamin with many tasks

Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is always on the scene where the nerves are concerned. Tension and pressure to perform at work, nagging children, noise, tense discussions with your partner... Daily stress can sometimes really get on our nerves. We are irritated and eventually exhausted by all the demands constantly made of us. So many things need our attention at the same time! We need nerves of steel.

But our nerves are delicate structures, elaborately interlinked with one another. They communicate with each other so we can function normally in every situation. So that everything runs smoothly, the body needs vitamin B1 (thiamine) among other things.

It delivers energy for the cells. It also supports normal functioning of the nervous system by promoting the transmission of nerve impulses and facilitating communication between the nerve cells. As part of the neurotransmitters in the brain, thiamine also contributes to normal mental function.

What is thiamine?

Thiamine (vitamin B1) is a water-soluble essential vitamin that plays a decisive role in the body’s energy metabolism and supports the normal function of nervous system and psyche.
 
Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is needed to convert carbohydrates into energy, which is necessary for the normal function and activity of our cells.

Vitamin B1 is additionally an important component of the neurotransmitters (chemical messengers in the brain) that enable communication between the nerve cells. This is essential for the transmission of nerve impulses that control movement, perception, thought processes and all other activities of the nervous system. A sufficient level of thiamine therefore contributes to smooth and normal functioning of the nervous system.

Vitamin B1 also contributes to the production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, which is important for the regulation of mood and emotions.

How does vitamin B1 get into the body?

Since the body cannot make it itself, vitamin B1 needs to be absorbed from our food. Rich sources of thiamine include wholegrain products, nuts, pulses and pork.
