BulkSupplements Pure Thiamine Mononitrate (Vitamin B1) Powder (100 grams)
Vitamin B1 provides the body with a source of thiamine to use in the process of breaking down carbohydrates so that they may be used as an energy source by the body. Thiamine is also necessary for amino acids to be properly metabolized. When a person's diet is such that carbohydrates make up their main source of energy, this will require the body to produce more thiamine, or if this is not possible, for more thiamine to be supplemented. Thiamine does not just process sugars and essential amino acids; it also helps to metabolize fats and proteins. Adenosine triphosphate is a chemical that is produced in the body. It not only provides energy to muscles during times of intense exercise, but it absorbs energy while it is doing this so that at a later time, the energy can be dispersed and used. Without adenosine triphosphate people would grow exhausted soon after exercising and would have to eat immediately to replenish enough energy to simply walk home after a workout. Vitamin B1 is responsible for indirectly facilitating the process that goes on to create ATP via the creation of thiamine pyrophosphate, making it quite the important vitamin.There are a variety of other uses for vitamin B1. It keeps all metabolic functions in the body running smoothly and correctly. It keeps the cardiovascular system running in good health and makes sure that the rate of your heart beat stays regular. The nervous system as well as cognitive systems would not be nearly as functional without a good dose of vitamin B1 consistently running through the veins.This supplement comes in the form of a crystalline powder with a slightly off-white or almost yellow hue. Thiamine is easily soluble in water and because the body is constantly cycling it out through the urinary tract, it needs to continually be replaced through diet or supplementation. This substance reacts easily to heat and alkali when these components are added to the solution.
