Today I want to cover the bizarre symptoms of vitamin B1 deficiency.
Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is important for your nerves, and a deficiency in vitamin B1 can impact all parts of your nervous system.
Vitamin B1 is necessary to give energy to a specific cell that makes myelin. Myelin is a coating around your nervous system. If that coating breaks down because of vitamin B1 deficiency, various negative things can start to happen.
Top causes of vitamin B1 deficiency:
• Refined sugar and carbohydrates
• Tea
• Coffee
• Wine
• Dried fruit
• Alcohol
• Raw fish
• Metformin
• Chlorine (tap water)
• Antibiotics
• Antacids
• Diuretics
• Birth control pills
• SSRIs
• Seizure medications
• HPV vaccinations
• Betel nut
Bizarre symptoms of vitamin B1 deficiency:
• Tourette syndrome
• Ataxia
• Obsessive-compulsive disorder
• ADHD
• POTS syndrome
• MS symptoms
• Fibromyalgia symptoms
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Peripheral neuropathy
It's important to pinpoint what's causing your thiamine deficiency, so you can start doing something about it. You can also start taking vitamin B1-just be sure it's a natural version. Unfortified nutritional yeast is a great natural source of vitamin B1. If you have a problem related to your myelin sheath, you may also want to take benfotiamine.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps explain the bizarre symptoms of vitamin B1 deficiency. I'll see you in the next video.
This is no joke... B1 deficiency was literally causing me full blown autonomic failure. From heart issues to GI dysmotility from my esophagus all the way to my descending colon. Nutritional yeast and benfotiamine quite literally saved my life. I went to GI specialists, neurologists, sleep specialists, cardiologists and it wasn't until finally I saw a pulmonology specialist of all things... because for some reason I was getting severe shortness of breath... and he was so blown away by the fact that I couldn't walk up a flight of stairs even though my heart and lungs were structurally normal. I asked him if there could be a Nutritional explanation for these symptoms... he thought about it for a second.... and finally said... "it's a possibility... but it would have to be so bad that's it's something called beri beri (b1 deficiency) but... that's just not possible in the western world today..." I do thank him for mentioning it... but I found it so odd that he said beri beri is a possibility but then it's not possible. Haha needless to say with in 4 hours of taking Nutritional yeast my shortness of breath vanished. Within 24 hours my choking during my sleep vanished and with in 48 hours of taking benfotiamine my global autonomic dysfunctions all started to improve simultaneously. This stuff is no joke. Thank you Dr. Berg for all of your insights. It truly does save lives. I will be letting my specialists know what happened and that YES beri beri is still alive and hurting people today. Cheers!
@Jack Neals, best informative comment yet, thank you for sharing.
Wow, never thought of this, even though I studied nutrition a bit in high school and have had a interest in it. My husband sounds like you. I’ll try this for him! Thanks for the reminder that old fashioned issues can still happen.
Cocarboxylase is a key!!!
How much did you take of the yeast?
How long doing high dose b1 did it take for your autonomic issues to subside. I'm on day 4. I've been suffering for 12 years.
I had completely lost trust in doctors as a profession, until I started listening to Dr. Berg. His lessons are a mix of medical knowledge and common sense.
Dr.Berg is a doctor of Chiropractic & was taught about nutrition & natural ways to support health.
@@penultimania4295 how is a chiropractor not a doctor? They still have to have boards and licensing. I’ve learned FAR MORE from him than any other. Usual doctors are either arrogant or incompetent or both. Mostly it’s both as they’re lazy. If it’s not an allergy pill, anti depressant, or Tylenol they’re stumped. And most anti depressants don’t work and actually cause more problems.
Doesnt matter, in actuality no doctor will tell you the REAL truth. Meaning, why and how they live so long, not to mention the medications/secret knowledge they cannot share with the public.
Talk about trusting Drs. I had a colonoscopy one yr ago my guts hurt everyday afterwards one month later I had emergency surgery from my colon twisting and blocking up from being torn loose from procedure
@@mrs.happydog584 he is a liar
I have been vitamin B1 deficient 10 years I had to diagnose myself by watching doctors like you. Within two weeks my symptoms had improved at least 50% within four weeks my symptoms improved 80% and even if I don't get my other 20 back I feel like a new person. I thought it was so bad that I was going to have to go into a wheelchair and probably assisted living now I'm back my old self almost. I hope I didn't do damage that I can't undo but I'm just grateful to be where I am I'm actually walking pretty well and I get up and down my cardio problems have improved thank you so much for the videos you do you don't know it but you save lives keep up the good work

I had peripheral neuropathy in my hands and toes. I cut sugar and took Vitamin B complex supplements and neuropathy is gone! Thank you Dr. Berg I owe this to you!!
Lucky you!! I've had it for a year now : (
How long it take?
@@averyt6521 the first 2 months the neuropathy was on and off and gradually stopped. Its been 9 months now i live again!
which brand of b complex you took?
Glad to help! -Dr. Berg's support team
Went to a doctor because I had a long list of symptoms. The doctor did a bunch of tests and said there’s nothing wrong, in fact you’re very healthy. Then she prescribed an inhaler. I asked why would you prescribe that if there’s nothing wrong? She said..”you know.” Insinuating it was all in my head. So much for doctors. I quit junk food and doctors and started taking supplements, eating bone broth soup to heal the gut etc. All symptoms gone and now I am healthy as a horse.
I am having alot of problems including memory and sores in my mouth and my nails jist flake and peel. I don't know ow what to do as I have tried so much stuff.
You need vit c (you could take a cranberry supplement) magnesium and zinc. Also bone broth is great for your body.
@@clairefitzpatrick7183 , thanks I will try that
Ugh doctors who prescribe meds with side effects as a placebo, suck
@@faithcordova3114 take collagen vitamin D and B complex including vitamin B 1
Dr Bergs B1 supplement literally saved me from my ocd. I struggled for so long with ocd specifically racing repetitive thoughts (negative thoughts) but with B1 and walking 1 mile every day my life has dramatically improved. Thank you Dr berg ❤
Hello there, fellow OCD sufferer. Can you please share which supplement you took
The link is in the video description
Can u tell the dosage you took?
I also have some sort of ocd, I get negative thoughts randomly theoughout the day, sometimes even during conversations. I started taking b-100 complex today. Hope this will help me 😊
@@arts3312B1 vitamin
I was texting my daughter today. I told her that I started to take B1 (Benfotiamine), B complex & Magnesium bcuz I was suffering from lack of sleep, confusion, lightheaded & a lot of back pain ( I felt like my back was going to break)...I also suffer from sciatica. I told her within 3 wks of taking it I feel great! I sleep like a baby 😊 Anyways, she said that Dr. Berg just put out a video about B1. I hope it helps others as it helped me. Thank u Dr. Berg. BTW Dr Berg ur skin looks amazing!
take D3 too
HE just looks AMAZING!! Especially loving the beard! He is so beautiful ❤️
How did you take all the supplements and dosages and times of day? Please share your regiment much appreciated l. Did you do any diet changes and exercise?
@wonderwoman7969 Oh my, I really don't remember exactly what I did because it's been a year since then. No, I did not do exercise. I only took the B1 once a day from Nusapure Benfotiamine 300mg, with BioPerine. I stopped taking it after a month or so. Then, I started taking vitamins. I did some fasting and started taking D3 with K2 and magnesium from Pure, vitamin Code Raw Zinc from Garden of Life, and the Raw C vitamin Code. I also take 125mg Tocotrienols E vitamin from the company EANNATTO. I really can't say what exactly is helping me, but something or all has done wonders. I'm going to start on the B1 again. My cardiologist had told me that I needed to exercise because (in simple words) I think my cells are not getting the oxygen they need. I'm also going to start taking Beet Roots organic from gold health because it provides nitric oxide. Sorry I wrote so much
I was very I’ll & could barely walk until I decided to supplement B1 My body is slowly untwisting & neuropathy is going away I’m so thankful for the inflammation
I was diagnosed with ptsd,adhd,ocd,and was taking 10 different psychiatric medicine in the morning 5 at night, after I switched to keto all this went away and took myself of off medication didn't tell my psychiatrist because they will always try to convince you that you need it and you get worse they get rich
I'm glad for you, I hope you will never go back to those distractive pills again.
if you don't mind sharing, did you take any specific doses of supplements? I have two teens that have old and one with tics (movement of hands) so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Very happy for you!
Good for you!
Hi how are you doing now?
I'm still going stronger than ever 💪 and haven't needed any meds
Can't believe doctors will never tell you to top up on B1, i never knew you can deplete vitamins like this.
Most doctors have little or no training in nutrition.
Capitalism
People and especially children used to die during winter from pelegra which is a B1 deficiency. Back in the day pelegra was believed to be contagious.
Most doctors have no clue. Only no how to prescribe scripts
@@VicDamoneJr82 not capitalism - corruption. Communist doctors definatly won't help you either. The state party has determined that B1 is not neeeded and illegal.
You just described what my husband has suffered since 2017. He has gone from doctor to doctor spent thousands of dollars and still had no diagnosis of relief. Will be starting him on this immediately.
I would i started using thiamine for anxiety and it works
Could you give us an update, please? I hope he is doing better now.
I completed a four-month intense gut protocol with a functional doctor. Had incredible results, but I still would get constipation from time to time. Even with an improved diet and exercise, but still couldn't shake it. Then I watched this video on B1 deficiency. Ordered your B1 supplement and now no more issues. Thank you!
Are you referring to his Allithiame supplement? I ordered it too but I don’t know if I should take that or benfothiame.
@@cmcmackn yes, Vitamin B1 formula that is made with highly bioavailable allithiamine
@@andrewbeveridge1677 thanks! do you think he’d recommend that over the benfo version? It’s weird he hasn’t done any videos on it and always recommend benfo when he sells that version.
@@cmcmackn great question. Not sure which one he would recommend. Maybe try both and see which one works well for you. It has been over four months since I started and I am doing well still. Good luck!
I work with a functional medicine doctor, but he’s not that great and certainly didn’t put me on a four month got protocol. He just list of supplements send you to his and health store and is done with you. I would love to do what you did for my gut, Can you please share if you don’t mind some of the basics of the protocol? I’m pretty familiar with gut issues but I’m curious what you did,I’ve had constipation many years. Thank you
I started taking about 1500mg of B1 spread out during the day and it’s improved my stuttering about 90%
Awesome work
Congrats ! Thanks for sharing
Amazing! 👏🏾
Wow! Good for you!
1500 mg of B1 is 136 350 % of the recommended dose. This is extremely mega overdose. OMG !
It's really disappointing that doctors won't tell you any of this. Thank you so much for all of your informative videos.
It's pure evil!
They don't tell you because they don't know it
That's be ause most of them don't know.
At times, I would have tingling in my hands and feet. When I looked up on what causes that, I found a video by Dr Berg about B1 deficiency being a cause. After taking multiple tablespoons of nutritional yeast, the tingling went away very quickly. Just a simple personal testimony.
Hi there may I ask how you took it? I really want to start taking right away. Did you add it to water or another liquid? Or just put it in your mouth straight out of the package?
@@carladirden I will just eat it as is, but I have mixed it with water or almond milk before, and it does go down a little easier with some liquid. I've heard about people using it as a seasoning on vegetables to add an umami flavor, but I like nutritional yeast just as it is.
@@eliciareynolds9027 ok thank you!
@@carladirden I love nutritional yeast sprinkled on my salad!
@@cindyabramowicz4346 so far I eat it on eggs and avocado.
I got covid a year ago. Had none of the bronchial issues or coughing, but I did lose my smell and could not sleep for 8 days. For months I couldn't even lie down without getting dizzy. My pulse went super low for weeks
i sleep in a recliner too D3 helps u alot
Study shows turmeric post covid restores smell and taste.
How long did it take for you to notice a difference in your symptoms going away?
@rubythecraftgirl7097 from what point? The insane mind problems and unusual sleep went mostly away in 3 months, almost overnight with the magnesium. The lying down and foot hurting went away about a month after the full regimen of b, d, k, magnesium. I no longer have a trace of apnea and im now down 40 lbs.
@@castricv thank you for replying. It gives me hope. I'm very happy to hear you're doing well.
One of the few trustworthy docs left! Thank you Dr. Berg!!
Dr. Berg has literally saved me. Many others had failed me. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
Lupron is also an option for prostate cancer. My dad chose to start Lupron injections in 2010 instead of surgery, chemo and radiation. He's 90 and doing well
Yes sir, I have had some classes on nutrition and study it a bit. Some people might need to know that B1 is Thiamine, B2 is Riboflavin, B3 is Niacin,, D3 is Cholecalif, etc. I still get things confused a bit and have to read the label to check How Much vitamins I’m taking. Thanks!
Thank you 🙏
My aunt died from MS in the 70s. I'm wondering if she had tried B1 if her outcome may have been different. Thank you so much for all you do Dr. Berg.

This describes me 100%. I had gastric bypass in 2007. I am everything depleted. Your entire list describes me. I have fibromyalgia in my family also, but this make more sense. I wish you were my doctor. I feel as if I am 2 steps away from a hospital. 6 children after gastric bypass. I am falling apart from head to toe. I did not have a follow up dietitian either. I have been dealing with this on my own. 🤯 I desperately need help from someone in order to get my life back. 😩
Did you try the vitamin B1? If so are you feeling better?
I watch Dr Berg's videos nearly every day. And I get so much out of them. I took some of his nutritional yeast just now and I did not realize how badly I needed B1. It actually made my blood sugar go down. His advice is what I use mostly to keep my diabetes in check. Keep up the good work!
How do you take the yeast?
@@mustybusty sprinkle on food, add to sauces
@@ajrwilde14 thank you
@mustybusty She said that she took Dr. Berg's nutritional yeast. His nutritional yeast comes in pill form, which is what I believe she took.
Years ago I told my dr how I almost wiped out PVCs with magnesium and panic attacks with B complex, he not only didn't care, but wanted to put me on blood pressure meds because my systolic was 10mmhg high. I didn't go back.
I've always been able to get my BP under control by eating right, no sugar, no carbs, pasta, junk in boxes, etc and drinking lemon water every morning.
What does PVC stand for?
Thank you Dr. Berg! Dealing with a plethora of food allergies, Beta-thalassemia blood type, and still putting in 12 hour days at the railroad at 57-years-young, things have become quite challenging, but I believe you have offered a resolution to my situation, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart, may God continue to bless you.
I have the same condition beta thalassemia minor. What other symptoms do you notice and what are you taking to treat them I’m curious
Dizziness, especially standing up, tingling in left arm, which seems to occur when bending over, or using that arm, disappears when sitting up straight. Gut issues, mostly constipation, and now getting food coma...but decided that I have to cut protein to relieve that, and be better to my kidneys although recently began to use caution with oxalates. We all need medical degrees to keep up, but you, Dr. Berg are a huge help. Keep up the great work!
I grew up with a lot of these Symptoms growing up. terrette syndrome , ADD ,OCD. Thankfully the tetrettes went away. But I still had other issues. I years later have gone to this doctor and have had many different tests done. I definitely have a b1 problem, but also am deficient in other B vitamins as well. I'm just glad that dr berg make these videos to go into more details and also reconfirm my test and what I've been feeling lately and what I need to do to change it.
I have tourette syndrome too. Did you finally take some b1 supplement after 2 months of the comment?
You may have the MTHFR mutation. Take folate with your b vitamins. It’s a necessity
LMAO there was no mutation! That's only what they waned ppl to fear to take the jabs! Scientist said the covid virus doesn't mutate I have the article, but would take a week to find it in all of my review papers!
I love you Dr. Berg! ❤ You have changed my life, my husband's life and my kids will have a healthier and brighter future because of all the useful and life changing information you constantly give out to the world for free! May God always bless you! 🙏
You came through when I needed you most. He's not just a Dr. He's the hero the world deserves,. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.

A common antibiotic Metronidazole (Flagyl) can cause severe vitamin B1 deficiency. Doctors usually don't make the connection. Anyone taking this antibiotic should consider this if they start to experience these scary symptoms.
Anti inflammatory drugs can cause kidney damage, but if caught in time can flush the drug out by detoxing. The urine will be orange and yellow with a foul odor. False lab results claim chronic kidney disease when all that's needed is to flush out and detox the kidneys! Parsley water boiled, fress lemon. Turmeric and ginger root ground freshly in a cup of water every morning then drink water all day, 2 to 3 weeks!
I am surprised with this video! I know vitamin B1 long time ago from Vietnam, when my mother 72 years old, one day she had severe pain in her shoulder, my brother was nurse, he injected her liquid thiamine ( it imported from French) , the pain was gone. He told me that vitamin B1 good for arthritis and nerve pain , B1 has in brown rice ( the outer layer) . I started to eat brown rice with foods, I used Vitamin B1 supplements , I have never feel pain until now ( I am 69 years old) . About 15 years ago, my friend is nurse (RN) , I talked to her about that, she was surprised, because she had never heard about that from the school and the doctor she worked with. I hope if she watches this video she will remember me and she will think about how B1 is very excellent. Who else is watching this video,should use Vitamin B1 right away. Good luck!
You don't talk to nurse for medications usually. You talked to pharmacist. As a former pharmacist student, I'm very surprised with many comments in this place saying that doctors don't bother with vitamins. My pharmacist cousin bought a lot of Bcomplex for my grandparents to help them with their joints and nerve systems. It did help a lot. it's a common practice here in Indonesia to give vitamins when people go to doctors for non-severe problem. The dose is usually one tablet a day, that's it. Not too heavy, but it does supply your body. That's why it's called supplement, isn't it?
Thank you for mentioning clear cut on B1 and OCD connection🙇
Happy you found it useful! Be well! -Dr. Berg's support team
Thank you for all your amazing honest advice Dr Berg! May I offer a suggestion? That is when you make your next video do you mind turning up your volume a little? I'm a musician/producer(with many health probs) and find your vid just a tad quiet God Bless you and yours!
This video, along with your others on B1 have been extremely helpful. I have been taking Thiamin EZ melts to help me sleep, a B-Complex and non-fortified nutritional yeast. I will go to the health food store and get the benfotiamine. All your recommendations make sense. I want to live a simple healthy lifestyle, getting my vitamins, etc. through foods, but I realize a deficiency calls for more. Thank you ~ Diane
Seems like my DNET tumor, which has glioneuronal/oligodendrocytal root, was caused partially by lack of vitamin B1. During my engineer studies I slept poorly throughout school year, therefore I craved carbs, which depleted my B1 despite other healthy habits. Which caused the tumor and seizures as effect. Thankfully I discovered 1,5 year ago dr Eric Berg and dr Sten Ekberg and I started supplement certain nutrients. I feel better than ever before, seems like I was nutritional desert. Tumor is still with me, but since it is not cancerous and mildly affects me, it is under constant watch.
Excellent, extremely helpful and accurate video which most doctors don’t know.
I take benfotiamine but I think I'll increase my dosage. My mom's brother had his myelin sheath deteriorating up in his neck area and he was in constant pain. Had an unsuccessful surgery. Had another surgery scheduled with no guarantee to it's success. His wife was an old fashioned cook and baker. She had sweets on hand all the time. They were well into retirement when this happened. He decided to commit suicide instead of go through another surgery that had no promises for recovery to be certain. That was many decades ago. Unfortunately medical professionals have been advising procedures and medications more and more these days it seems to me. People look to them for a magic pill to fix it than to change our ways and help ourselves with good nutrition etc.
Outstanding medical explanation as al way thank you on behalf everyone that watches you.

@@Angiehere-1 the one I have is b1 100 mg 😩 I wonder if it’s too much. Ty so much
@@Nat_flo10 B1 won’t hurt you but be sure to take it with a B Complex because they all work together. Your body will dump it out daily. It is harmless.

I have always wondered what ADHD had in common with diabetes. Both run in families and, in my family, I noticed that children with ADHD grow into adults with diabetes.
Wow....that makes sense! Same in my family!
They’re often very picky eaters and resort to fast food, alcohol and refined sugar to give them little kicks of dopamine. They’re typically unorganised, very impulsive and lack structure in their lives. At a very minimum, they eat poorly and drive themselves into nutritional deficiencies. One aspect of a very difficult question. Dr Derrick Lonsdale has some articles on the website Hormones Matter about ADHD being a nutritional problem.
@@mattholley3642 thanks. I'll check into that.
Vit D supplements def help. Vit D is crucial for dopamine production. Levels should be around 100 or more!

Many symptoms of B6 deficiency also showup as symptoms of B1 deficiency. B1 is NOT required in megadoses esp if you are having the bioavbl water soluble form of b1, along with magnesium, manganese & zinc. Further high doses of B1 should NOT be consumed in isolation but along with an active B complex to avoid imbalances amongst B vitamins long term.
Folic Acid as well
@@boots1523 Folic acid is crap. The right form is Folate / 5MTHF.
Thanks a lot Dr Berg for the great video and for the advice, information and tips 😊👍👍👍👍
I just ordered your Nutritional Yeast Tablets. I had never heard of this until now. I've tried so many other supplements and I am hoping for the best with this product. Fingers crossed. I will update here after trying this.
Very interesting. I have POTS and I purchased your keto energy with the B vitamins. I wonder if that will help me. I also purchased the cod liver oil from your site. POTS is debilitating and sadly most healthcare professionals don’t know what to do to help. Thank you Dr Berg.
Hello Dr. Berg! I’ve been doing one meal a day for almost a year now. Your videos are really helpful to me. I just want to share something. One morning after drinking my coffee, gradually, i lost my hearing. It felt like echoing inside my ear. It’s like there’s pressure inside. I’ve been like that for the whole day. It only stopped and my hearing came back after I took Neurobion tablets. It’s Vitamin B complex supplement that’s available here in my place. So I just realized that I was Vit B deficient. Since then, I make sure to take Vit B every day and it never happen again.😊
What brand ò B1 do you take?
Did this happen after having covid ?
@@natalietran1997 Neurobion
@@helennoble9587 Nope. Even before I had covid. I started to notice those symptoms after few months of intermittent fasting. But I managed it by taking Neurobion tablets.
@@jadebv2065 I take MegaFood brand multivitamin and get all the B vitamins in their natural forms with a single tablet. It's a great product I wholeheartedly recommend.
You're a great doctor! I've learnt so much from your videos!
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent video ! You always add valuable information to my research & learning over the past 15+ years. Thank you ! You are very much appreciated. I relay the information that I’ve learned over the years along with your valuable videos to both of my young daughters to get them on the correct path to excellent health so they don’t experience the problems that so many people suffer with as they age.
Wonderful! You're very welcome!
I would love to hear more about derealization or disassociation. This has really destroyed so much of me and can't find much about this. Thank you
Trauma causes this. Deliverance can help you. Maybe look up Isaiah Saldivar or Daniel Adam's.
Have you healed? Those mental states are terrible.
Thank you for another awesome video packed with a plethora of good information 👍 🥰😊🥰
Very glad to be of help.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Once again, I would like to thank you for sharing another exceptional video! 👏🏾
Glad you like it. Thanks for the comment!
The first time I took benfotiamine, my fatigue and brain fog disappeared the whole day. I couldn’t sleep in the night because I was so energetic. A shocking initial effect, but it felt like I was actually getting energy in my system. It’s calmed down now and I’m still tired; this is a long term chronic issue so I can’t expect it to work like magic. I haven’t taken it for a month even. I have always suspected my illness is nerve related because I will slur, drop things, stumble, have extreme fatigue, stomach pain, neuropathic pain, ocd, cognitive dysfunction, vertigo etc etc. I have never been diagnosed but told I’m completely healthy - however I am suffering extremely. I am hopeful that benfotiamine will help. I’ve been sick my whole life.
Can i ask you something?
God Bless you! I’ve been sick all my life , trying to tell a medical professional about my symptoms,only to have them look at me like I was a hypochondriac, because my labs were normal! I understand what you’re saying 😢….. This went on until I got my first computer. Then I started educating myself on symptoms. In the last few years, I’ve slowly taken myself off a lot of powerful medications & trying different supplements. I’m not where I want to be yet, but I’m a lot improved, better then I’ve been in years! I’m just recently hearing about Dr. Berg this B-1 vitamin. I’m trying it next. Oh,did I mention that I was in my early 40’s when this ‘hit’ me. I was in excruciating pain & was told it probably is ‘Fibromyalgia?’. I’d never heard of it. There was no testing for it, there was no cure, only prescription pain medication. I’ve replaced most medications with supplements, and doing so much better. I’m also 77 years old 🎉….
Look into adding the TTFD form of vit b1.
@@silviebreber1523 Have you found the TTFD form to work better for some people?
@@bartginger123 I use both. Benfotiamine and TTFD seem to work in different parts of the body, and complement each other.
Have had symptoms of fainting, dizziness, nausea after a period of high stress and a major surgery. Dr’s blew me off , insinuating it was in my head. Just ordered the B1 supplement
Have you seen a change?
I thank you Dr Berg for letting me know about this a while back. I haven't missed a day since. I trust you so much....
Dr Berg I just love how God uses you to give me answers I'm needing for my health. This is another health question answered from you with clarity and understand. Thank you! Thank you and I thank God for you! 👍 🙏💜 🌞🌈
Glad to help! -Dr. Berg's support team
I just recently started taking b1 after watching one of your vids because I had severe anxiety issues related with this dang fibromyalgia. Has definitely helped me! Thx!
Another zuniga. How's Jose zuniga doing?🤣
Wow! This is awesome. Can you please share what brand of B1 you take and how much in a day? Thankyou very much in advance!
That's fantastic! Thank you for sharing! Dr. Berg's Support Team.
I started taking Nutritional Yeast capsules because I was feeling internally jumpy. I know I don’t sound very scientific, but, that’s the best way to describe exactly how I felt. Taking the Yeast has given me more physical energy, but, my jumpy insides have gone away. Keep up these wonderful videos, Dr. Berg. Your videos have become my Continuing Education Problem during my Retirement from being a Special Education Teacher. I want to keep my brain cells firing!!!! Bless you, Dr. Berg!!
Jade Zun That's fantastic it's helping your fibromyalgia 👏 hooray. I started taking it recently and it's helping my tender calves as Dr. Berg stated in another video it helped that, but I have fibromyalgia also along with horrible migraines and chronic fatigue syndrome and sleep apnea and I'd be overjoyed if it helped all those too!!! May in ask which brand of B1 you take for your fibromyalgia? Thanks a million for your help and continued success to your health
Wow.. so happy to you mentioned the gardasil shots. My health as always felt worse after I got minr and never for the better 👎🏻 I actually ended up quitting all my sports from my joints hurting and never being able to catch my breath. And it’s the reason why I’m raising my kids injection free
Thank you so much! This may be exactly what is ailing us all!
thank you ,you just diagnose my issue for 3 years really gratful.
I purchased Benfotiamine thanks to Dr. Berg’s recommendation. I take several supplements, and sometimes forget WHY I started taking a particular one. So I write the reasons on a small label, and apply it to the supplement bottle. This is another benefit of Benfotiamine to add to that label.
Dr. Berg. You are the best. Thank you for all the hard work you do to help the entire world become healthy. That's what I call a big job.👍
Wow 😯 ! Great vid on Explaining in detail. Now that I have watched this. This definitely explains why I have been experiencing #5 Pots comes and goes but couple years ago it was constant for awhile and didn’t understand why it was happening. This is crazy couple years later, Finally seeing this vid about B1 is Great Information.
Best dr ever .Thankyou so much for simplyfying health for the masses .God bless
HPV is still part of the recommended vaccination schedule for children here in Washington State. They start offering it at age 11. After researching side effects, I have turned it down for both of my children. They try and push it for both boys and girls here every single year during their yearly check ups.
Stand strong and keep saying NO!
Well... considering genital warts and cervical cancer risk... I'm sticking with the vaccine
@@ineedhoez Are you a Christian?
Good for you to turn those down. We are over-vaccinating. (I live in WA too.)
Keep saying NO and educate the kids
I have suffered with sciatica & POTS. I have Benfotamine in my cupboard but thought it was to maintain blood sugar levels. Didn’t use it because I take Berberine every day to maintain healthy blood sugars. Will go back to adding Benfotamine to my daily regimen.
Wow the same for me I have really bad sciatica , that as I write this comment. I cannot walk this is the second time this happened the first time I could not walk for 5 months. Now we have a hurricane bearing down on us in Florida and I cannot move around or walk. I also have POTS and my BS is starting to get a little high so I take Berberine and a chromium for it. I will try this Benfortamine. Can you please tell what brand you are using and also how much Berberine are you taking each day?Thankyou in advance! Hope you feel better!
I Love berberine for my histamine intolerance.
Wow you save my life. Blessing to you and your family's
Thank You so much Sir! I am grateful for all the wonderful information you share with us!
My pleasure!
I don't frequently comment but I really appreciate these Dr Berg videos. Also, I've had bouts of POTS for years and, more recently, nueropathy- just weird foot pain that may be related. I drink coffee (tannins and caffeine) and, from time to time, maybe too much sugar. I'm gonna try the benfotiamine. Thanks, Dr Berg!
How’d this go for you? I have the exact same situation. POTS/dysautonomia/neuropathy, and drink coffee.
@@CryptoLTP5 I didn't notice a remarkable improvement so I didn't stick with it. Now I take Brewer's yeast for B vitamin and other nutritional benefit. But it's not very pleasant stirred into water but I'll still do it. Sometimes I stir it into vanilla yogurt to mask it. I would consider trying Benfotiamine again but IIRC it's not cheap. All we can do is try and see and attempt to further research. On the whole my old symptoms are well-managed now. Could be the Brewer's yeast, could be the dried liver capsules (Dr Berg has a good video on liver as a superior "superfood" that is supposedly 2nd to none) God bless you and lead you
These symptoms are very common for me, I need vitamin B1 supplement immediately, I would like to thank Dr. Eric Berg a lot
I’m glad I found both videos on B1 Deficiency! I checked off half of these, and I’ve already had 2 Heart Attacks, and I have Peripheral Neuropathy! I take Diuretics, everyday, because of the Leg Swelling!
WOW this makes so much sense Thank you Dr Berg 💜🙏
You literally saved me once again I been hearing ringing and feeling tired and weird sometimes dizzy. I purchased the fat soluble b1 and immediately I started ti feel great. Funny thing is I’m pre diabetic and you mentioned that
Was the fat soluable one Benfotiamine?
The b helped clear up your tinitus?
Can you share with bra d of B1 you bought, please!!
I love your videos Dr Berg Thank you so much 🥰🙏🏻
You're very welcome! Glad you enjoy the videos!
This man is right on point. I love this doctor,has taught me a lot
Thank you for using your brilliance to help us all feel better.
Very glad to be of help.
