Optimizing Digestion & Energy Production with Thiamine

Theresa Piela

When it comes to supplements, there are several that I believe are necessary when it comes to restoring proper motility, absorption, and overcoming chronic fatigue.

Thiamine deficiency are often overlooked in complex cases of SIBO, idiopathic constipation, post-exertional malaise, and even long hauler syndrome.

In this episode I discuss:

  • My personal experience overcoming 13+ years of constipation, brain fog, and chronic fatigue
  • functions of thiamine & co-factors
  • Different forms of B1 & which are best for constipation
  • malnutrition induced B1 deficiency
  • Functional deficiency of B1 and warning signs
  • Paradoxical reactions to B-vitamins
  • The importance of magnesium 
  • Thiamine's role in estrogen detoxification... and beyond!
