How it works:
Thiamine is important for nervous system function, by helping brain cells communicate better, both in terms of the insulation needed for brain cells to communicate, as well as the propagation of neural signals itself. Deficiency in thiamine can lead to neurological issues such as memory problems, seizures, delirium, and more. Thiamine also has antioxidant properties, and the body needs more of it during viral illness. Because the body can only store a limited amount of thiamine, and it has a relatively short half-life, continual dietary supplementation of thiamine is key.
