When I watch videos like this, I’m sorry to say that I get so angry at my past doctors. For years I sought answers for terrible fatigue, brain fog, terrible massive bloating (slow motility and SIBO), and sometimes depression. Blood tests showed abnormal MCV and other such markers, but I was always told it was nothing significant. A year and a half ago I developed POTS. After stumbling on videos like yours, I started taking B vitamin supplements recently and I’m feeling a world of difference. I believe I have been low in B1, B6, and possibly others for decades. Not one doctor ever mentioned B vitamins to me. Others tried to write me prescriptions for antidepressants and got frustrated with me when I refused (I tried a few - they didn’t help.) I’m thankful to doctors like you who understand nutrition and really want to help educate the public. Thank you. You may not see it, but you are saving lives.
I was born in 1950 and started my menstruation at 11 yrs of age. At about 20ish I started having emotional/anger issues that increased with time. Back then there was no dx for my behavior. I suffered boughts of sleeplessness, anxiety, crying, but most of all, anger. Then, I would be just fine, feeling fine and no more anger. I went to several doctors but could not find anything physically wrong, so I went the mental illness route. I was ashamed and never spoke of it. In 1990 rural KS, I heard of a study being done on PMS, but I was too late, the study was complete. I was offered a questionnaire, which I answered, but it stumped the doctor because a lot of things associated with the PMS dx did not apply to me. He advised me to start taking B6 and B Complex daily but warned me not to be alarmed if my urine was orange because my body would use what it needed and flush the rest. Never once was my urine dark; orange or any other color. I took them regularly for the next 20 yrs until I had completed menopause. My husband called my B vitamins "Dragon Slayers" and said he'd rather go hungry then have me go without them.
Sounds like PMDD. I had the same and was able to cure it with Vitex and I would take B complex. I think for me it was a lack of being able to produce progesterone due to ovarian cyst.
Started having health issue when I stopped eating meat due to fear of getting a colon cancer. Now I realize you need a balanced diet to become healthy. Eat and live in moderation.

Yes, its one of the best sources. It will always help to take methylcobalamin(b12), benfothiamine(fat-soluble targets brain/nerves), allithiamine(also thiamine), and Folate(not folic acid).

Thank you for the video on most of the B Vitamins. I have a question for you: is it beneficial to take a B Complex Vitamin or are you suggesting taking each of these vitamins separately? Seems to be impossible to find physicians where I live who even believe in vitamins much less have any true, current information regarding the use of such supplements. At age 84, I need all the help I can find. Have always used Vitamins C and D3 - recently decided I needed to add B for a number of the conditions that I have. If any one Vitamin B is the best of all, which would it be and I can start there. Many thanks.
In nature the B's are always all together helping each other. Take a B Complex. Start with 1@day and increase slowly till you feel good. I take 4 @day which keeps me going throughout the day.
@@satyanarayanab8898hi I can recommend u watch RUclips channel E&O nutrition, he deals with Benfotomine being very helpful with Parkinson's symptoms. He features a lady who has trialed Benfotiamine Vit B1 Thiamine with such good results, she has written a book to answer all questions she was being asked by Parkinson's patients. So search RUclips E&I Nutrition/Parkinson's, hopefully u will find the correct one I am talking about.
I have been using the following B Complex for 22 years, containing 50 mg each of the "B's" : SISU COOL B-50. A blue glass container. I also take a B 12 supplement. Sublingual tablets (under tongue). 5,000 mcg x2 This is shared as a guideline, as what I take.
Thank you so much for this video! I have been researching symptoms in the use of B1. I upped my dosage and it’s helping immensely. I’m so happy I ran across your channel. I will definitely be a follower for all your videos. ❤
I have always been plagued with low energy, but I feel awful when I take B vitamins, especially any of the active (methyl) forms. I always wondered if it was all in my head, but I plugged my genetic info into a genetic health site, and I have four polymorphisms where they recommended avoiding methyl donors. I also fit the description of an over-methylator. So how do I keep my mitochondria functioning if I can’t take B vitamins?! I’m also chronically anemic. Anybody have suggestions?
Avoid taking any tea with animal protein, instead take bell peppers, oranges or vitamin C supplements. These will increase absorption of iron from the food you are eating.
Tysm for making this. I have vit B deficiency and hetero MTHFR. Great video easy to learn and understand. I appreciate you sharing this info. I have to take methylated vitamins now. I hope it helps. 🤞
I have a condition that is believed to be caused by vitamin b deficiency. I have a condition called Visual Snow Syndrome and Mirror Movement, and symptoms like tinnitus, anxiety, tremors, and more. Doctors in South Africa have no idea how to test or treat my condition. I'm not sure if I go to the US will help.
I experience the same . For many years . Now after 25 years . My gut is in bad shape . Bloating all the time . And gallbladder pains . Suspected deficiencies, Low stomach acids , possible H pylori? or other overgrowth? Many nutrient deficiencies from many years of malabsorption. I do know I have severe low bone calcium for the last 25 years . I have a lot of work to do . I just started taken Berberine and HCL . And I take Thiamine daily as well . Cut carbs and sugar . More of a carnivore diet now . Some short term fasting. My reality
DR JIN W. SUNG, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE BLESSED US, WITH YOUR OWESOME KNOWLEDGE IN NUTRITION AND HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT OF THE MENTAL AND PHYSICAL BODY. GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY.
Thank you doc. We should not and cannot depend or expect our physicians to keep us healthy. We can expect them to help us overcome and illness. But even then it usually takes to to tango except for the rogue drunk out on the dance floor. If you get a diagnosis you're not familiar with or medication you're not familiar with do your reading do your research and it's a very good idea to get a consult appointment with another doctor. Get your questions ready. Get help ask someone to help you with your questions. The answers to your questions will help determine that direction you will take in treating your condition.
Hi Excellent video on B1 from Dr. Eric Berg. Would like to see more info on period necessary to notice a change when doing remedies. That is so often missing from the info on remedies.
Be careful with nutritional yeast. It can be fortified with synthetic b vitamins rather than the active forms. My current understanding is that this can cause problems for people with common gene variants.
I have been experiencing most of the symptoms that you spoke about. I was an extreme vegetarian at one time and dangerously depleted my body of vital vitamins and nutrients. I had dangerously low levels of vitamin D, this led me to horrible problems that I am still recovering from, but with simple supplements I have improved greatly. The symptoms you spoke of I believe are the residual effects of my severe diet. I truly believe that adding this B1 may be the turn around I have been trying to find.
also meat. because it is good. And not in the least cruel to the animals. Besides, all your farmers who give you your veggies, are you not aware of how many precious little socalled innocent animals they kill? All day everyday? to protect the crops for the humans?
Can you explain why B6 is helpful for first trimester morning sickness ? I’ve been trying to find the MOA for this but have not been able to, thank you
Many pregnant women have B6 deficiency when compared to non-pregnant women. RBC and plasma PLP levels decline during pregnancy. This reduction of B6 is thought to be due to fetal uptake during pregnancy - and not due to any metabolic derangement associated with metabolism or absorption. During pregnancy, B6 is believed to treat nausea and vomiting through the downregulation of genes involved in the expression of estrogen, progesterone, human chorionic gonadotropin, adrenocorticotropic hormone, growth hormone, cortisol and prolactin. These steroid hormones may cause nausea and vomiting. These hormones also act on chemoreceptor areas in the brain that initiate vomiting.
I'm 65 years old (US citizen) living in Germany for the past 30 years. I was diagnosed with T2 diabetes in July 2021. I have been taking Metformin for 3 years now and through diet, fasting and light exercise I've lowered my A1 c to 6.2. Now that I have been experiencing problems for the last 2 years , I was very concerned about why I was having such problems even after eating healthy, do fasting after 6:00pm till 10:00 am, etc. My doctor here in Germany never told me that metformin would deplete vitamin B , so now that I have watched your extremely in depth explanation about the importance of taking a vitamin B supplement, it has improved my health and blood test tremendously ❤. Thank you for your wonderful video 🙏.
Would long term use if opioids cause issues too? I suspect so. I believe they can mess with histamine or are histamine liberators?? I've been on them way too long and have terrible gut issues. Dad had crones disease maybe I have some genetic issues aswell. Gosh it's made life hard to enjoy. Hope I can find some relief. Thanks for all the Info.
You will also need a B complex with it addition to magnesium. The B vitamins all work together. Increasing one will cause a need for the increase in the others. B vitamins should never be taken singularly. Types of B1 can be mixed. The type you are increasing doesn’t have to be the same type in your complex.
Thanks Dr. Jin I want ask something that wasn’t your subject today. what means when a person have excess mucuses in the body and can we get medication for treating that?
I take B-100s everyday. I thought I was doing something good by taking the higher dose now...... I used to take B-50s. I now take extra B1 and B12 because it's suppose yo help with nerve conditions I developed. Now i find out it's just not enough or I'm totally confused about what dosage will help. I'm not a big eater....just can't eat much all of my life, which is why I started taking supplements in my 30s thinking it was a very good move on my part....... and I'll be turning 75 soon. Now I'm worried about how much is too much of dosages my body can tolerate safely. Thanks doc, for taking the time to explain nutrition for us. U do a great service to us all. 👍🏻
Incredible, I have undiagnosed Pernicious Anemia, iFAB negative, my doctor refuses to treat me with hydroxocobalamin and so I have been self injecting for the past 10 years. Fabulous video so happy to find you pure gold. ❤
@@olilumgbalu5653 methylcobalamin over hydroxocobalamin as methylation process has already occurred with methylcobalamin, but both are natural sources.
Wow! I've never met another person that has gone and diagnosed themselves with the same thing. They diagnose me.... I had to have a biopsy in my stomach down my throat. And yes I have my husband and checked me with the shots... And yes it does help... It sucks they're not able to take the vitamin or eat food. The only thing helps is the B12 shots directly in the blood... Have you tried iron? Also? I've been trying this in the last few days for my energy with my thyroid...
Hi Trisha, Needs must. My iron is good, but I am a carrier for haemochromatosis H63D heterozygous. Your thyroid is sometimes affected if you avoid healthy fats in your diet, animal fats are best.
B3 Niacin which form has the least additive effect on Purine levels in the blood? I´m trying to reduce Uric acid´s effect on my joints as well as get my oxalates levels down so that I can walk less painfully.
I have celiac disease and SIBO, and cannot get enough thiamine. I tremble when I don't have enough. The reason I believe the trembling is from lack of thiamine is that I have stopped trembling when I just started to tremble by drinking orange juice. It of course also has high levels of vitamin C and potassium, but I also take potassium all day every day so I can urinate. (My legs have been swelling, and I can't urinate unless I take lots of potassium.) The potassium doesn't stop the trembling, so I assume it is the thiamine as that is the other thing in OJ. I also take thiamine in three forms -- benfothiamine, thiamine hcl in liquid form and thiamine mononitrate. I'm going to try thiamine TTFD next. But taking the thiamine directly doesn't stop the trembling; only drinking OJ will do that.
Can breastfeeding cause thiamin deficiency? I’ve been pregnant or breastfeeding for 9 years straight. I’m dealing with many issues now. Mostly heart symptoms and anxiety
Where is the link to purchase these vitamins you talk about? Had shingles 6 months, 2 different areas of outbreaks. Got phn..my primary is sending me to infectious disease doctor, one month wait on getting appt. I am not taking big pharma and thats my fear of even going to see him)!
I just found out I have a b12 lower than the level the lab can test. Its always recommended to supplement b12 as well when supplementing for a low folate, to not cause a b12 deficiency yet foods have far more folate added to them than we need and nobodys saying make sure and take b12 if you eat foods with folic acid. And yes Ive been having tingling fingers I was blaming on overuse. I hope the damage is reversable. We need to stop putting folic acid in our food.
God bless Dr.Igudia on RUclips, all my life will keep thanking you for the great help and for your product which actually works in eradicating Herpes infection out of my body system.
My b12 levels have always been through the roof on labs but I’ve also always had iron deficiency. I believe it isn’t getting into my cells. Most doctors don’t know what to do with this in my experience. Any advice?
20 Years of Pain ~ No Dr ever checked me for Gout~ I do not have toe gout ~ But after taking Dark Cherry Juice for several days ~which take gout away ~ has taken my cronic pain away after years of research and doctors.
Great information thank you. I have trigger fingers on both hands and seldom remember my dreams, so I wll order some B6 and see if there is any improvement. Thanks again Doc. 👍👍😃
WOW I need to speak to my Dr.'s my MCV has been over 96 for years and they never said a peep. I do take vitamins but recently have increased them as well as changed my intake of certain foods. I feel much better as well. I need to request that MTHFR gene as well. I always go over my lab reports but it seems like my doctors are missing something.
I think this whole world population is low on most all of these. We most likely do not have diabetes , neuropathy, and low energy I think it's a big lack of doctors want patients so let's treat symptoms not the cause of symptoms. Most foods are seriously lacking in vital nutrients, minerals and vitamins. Yes, and we eat the quick junk. Hence we are quickly becoming diabetics with fatty livers, dang it. Heads up people. Metformin depletes B. Cyanocobalamin B12 is synthetic, let's go forward aware. Go natural, eat better
greate video dr Jin, love the way you explain things you make it so clear and interesting. how come you haven't talked about B5 btw..??? would love to hear your thoughts about it and if does help sleep ?? i keep waking up between 2-4 and cant fall back to sleep 2-3 hours later and wake up tired and feel dead the rest of the day :(
Dr. Jin, out there, there is so much confusion on the water-soluble B Vitamins. I have been taking Daneuron brand : one capsule B1 100mg, B6 200mg, and B12 400 IU. The directions on the label : As a dietary supplement, take 1-3 capsules daily or as required by your health professional. I take 2 capsules a day in the morning on empty stomach during my fasting window [IF 16:8]. I have been taking these 3 B vitamins for 3 years now. Out of the blue, I am told there are more than one forms of B1 the best form is Benfotiamine, Vitamin B6 the best form is P5P, and Vitamin B12 the best form is methylcobalamin. What is your take? May I have your comment please.
Great video! I have a swallowing, esophageal disease and can't swallow the pills. And if I am able to swallow some of them, I will regard to take them up later. Is there a solution for b vitamin supplementation someone like me?
I have PLME and since I have been taking increased B vitamins especially the Niacin I have noticed less damage and increased recover time for any damage I do get. thank you for this video I am enjoying your content.
I've had macrocytic anemia for over 7 years and no doctor has ever told me it could be a b6 deficiency?? I have an mcv of 102 and mch of 34.4!! I'm worried about b6 toxicity though 😧

Thank you, Dr.W. Sung. I love your knowledgeable videos. Many thanks.
Dr W.Sung, Can you please make a video about (Black Seed Oil, Softgel Capsules, or Black Seed Oil. Many Thanks. 🍃
Thank you for your reply.
Thank you Dr. Sung. Can you suggest Dosage for Folate?
If you cook the brown rice doesn't the heat destroy thiamine? But it doesn't appear to since brown rice provides it?
But why no video on VItamine B2..... doctor can you please make one.... it's the only one missing, and I have a deficiency....
Thank you for the video on most of the B Vitamins. I have a question for you: is it beneficial to take a B Complex Vitamin or are you suggesting taking each of these vitamins separately? Seems to be impossible to find physicians where I live who
even believe in vitamins much less have any true, current information regarding
the use of such supplements. At age 84, I need all the help I can find. Have always
used Vitamins C and D3 - recently decided I needed to add B for a number of the
conditions that I have. If any one Vitamin B is the best of all, which would it be and
I can start there. Many thanks.
In nature the B's are always all together helping each other. Take a B Complex. Start with 1@day and increase slowly till you feel good. I take 4 @day which keeps me going throughout the day.
How it control parkinsondiecese explain simply for laymen
@@satyanarayanab8898hi I can recommend u watch RUclips channel E&O nutrition, he deals with Benfotomine being very helpful with Parkinson's symptoms. He features a lady who has trialed Benfotiamine Vit B1 Thiamine with such good results, she has written a book to answer all questions she was being asked by Parkinson's patients. So search RUclips E&I Nutrition/Parkinson's, hopefully u will find the correct one I am talking about.
I have been using the following B Complex for 22 years, containing 50 mg each of the "B's" :
SISU COOL B-50.
A blue glass container.
I also take a B 12 supplement. Sublingual tablets (under tongue). 5,000 mcg x2
This is shared as a guideline, as what I take.
😮😮 thank you! Great information. Dr. Sung you teach in a way it’s easy to comprehend and understand.☺️
Thank you so much for this video! I have been researching symptoms in the use of B1. I upped my dosage and it’s helping immensely. I’m so happy I ran across your channel. I will definitely be a follower for all your videos. ❤
What were your symptoms?
I never use pharma drugs. I do ayurvedic holistic methods.🤗
I have always been plagued with low energy, but I feel awful when I take B vitamins, especially any of the active (methyl) forms. I always wondered if it was all in my head, but I plugged my genetic info into a genetic health site, and I have four polymorphisms where they recommended avoiding methyl donors. I also fit the description of an over-methylator. So how do I keep my mitochondria functioning if I can’t take B vitamins?! I’m also chronically anemic. Anybody have suggestions?
Check for worms..other loss of blood .. inadequate intake of iron foods etc
you can take adenosylocobalmin brand seeking health amazon have it.
Avoid taking any tea with animal protein, instead take bell peppers, oranges or vitamin C supplements. These will increase absorption of iron from the food you are eating.
Is there a B complex, that include all the recommende type and dosage of B12 B9 B6 B3 B1.
What a wealth of amazing information. Thank you!
Tysm for making this. I have vit B deficiency and hetero MTHFR. Great video easy to learn and understand. I appreciate you sharing this info. I have to take methylated vitamins now. I hope it helps. 🤞
I have a condition that is believed to be caused by vitamin b deficiency. I have a condition called Visual Snow Syndrome and Mirror Movement, and symptoms like tinnitus, anxiety, tremors, and more.
Doctors in South Africa have no idea how to test or treat my condition. I'm not sure if I go to the US will help.
I experience the same . For many years . Now after 25 years . My gut is in bad shape . Bloating all the time . And gallbladder pains . Suspected deficiencies, Low stomach acids , possible H pylori? or other overgrowth? Many nutrient deficiencies from many years of malabsorption. I do know I have severe low bone calcium for the last 25 years . I have a lot of work to do . I just started taken Berberine and HCL . And I take Thiamine daily as well . Cut carbs and sugar . More of a carnivore diet now . Some short term fasting. My reality
So much great information, you are a treasure Dr ❤
Thanks for your time and your presentation of this valuable medical information ❤. Complete complex B Vitamins ‼️‼️‼️‼️
DR JIN W. SUNG, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE BLESSED US, WITH YOUR OWESOME KNOWLEDGE IN NUTRITION AND HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT OF THE MENTAL AND PHYSICAL BODY.
GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY.
You left "caps lock" on by the way
Wow so informative, this always reminds of the Mighty 90 , that we need everyday....the basics, always goes back to basics ...
Thank you doc. We should not and cannot depend or expect our physicians to keep us healthy. We can expect them to help us overcome and illness. But even then it usually takes to to tango except for the rogue drunk out on the dance floor. If you get a diagnosis you're not familiar with or medication you're not familiar with do your reading do your research and it's a very good idea to get a consult appointment with another doctor. Get your questions ready. Get help ask someone to help you with your questions. The answers to your questions will help determine that direction you will take in treating your condition.
Hi Excellent video on B1 from Dr. Eric Berg. Would like to see more info on period necessary to notice a change when doing remedies. That is so often missing from the info on remedies.
Be careful with nutritional yeast. It can be fortified with synthetic b vitamins rather than the active forms. My current understanding is that this can cause problems for people with common gene variants.
Not always, get nutritional yeast with only yeast as the ingredient, if there's more ingredients its synthetic.
Is their a safe B complex to take? Is so what do you reccomend?
I have been experiencing most of the symptoms that you spoke about. I was an extreme vegetarian at one time and dangerously depleted my body of vital vitamins and nutrients. I had dangerously low levels of vitamin D, this led me to horrible problems that I am still recovering from, but with simple supplements I have improved greatly. The symptoms you spoke of I believe are the residual effects of my severe diet. I truly believe that adding this B1 may be the turn around I have been trying to find.
also meat. because it is good. And not in the least cruel to the animals. Besides, all your farmers who give you your veggies, are you not aware of how many precious little socalled innocent animals they kill? All day everyday? to protect the crops for the humans?
@@nozrep agree good quality you know where they are from
Thank you for sharing Doctor Sung. This is very informative.
Would taking B complex vitamins be suitable to combat deficiencies...?
Can you explain why B6 is helpful for first trimester morning sickness ? I’ve been trying to find the MOA for this but have not been able to, thank you
Many pregnant women have B6 deficiency when compared to non-pregnant women.
RBC and plasma PLP levels decline during pregnancy.
This reduction of B6 is thought to be due to fetal uptake during pregnancy - and not due to any metabolic derangement associated with metabolism or absorption.
During pregnancy, B6 is believed to treat nausea and vomiting through the downregulation of genes involved in the expression of estrogen, progesterone, human chorionic gonadotropin, adrenocorticotropic hormone, growth hormone, cortisol and prolactin.
These steroid hormones may cause nausea and vomiting. These hormones also act on chemoreceptor areas in the brain that initiate vomiting.
Thank you so much, this video is just what I need at this time. Much appreciation for your time.
I'm 65 years old (US citizen) living in Germany for the past 30 years. I was diagnosed with T2 diabetes in July 2021. I have been taking Metformin for 3 years now and through diet, fasting and light exercise I've lowered my A1 c to 6.2. Now that I have been experiencing problems for the last 2 years , I was very concerned about why I was having such problems even after eating healthy, do fasting after 6:00pm till 10:00 am, etc. My doctor here in Germany never told me that metformin would deplete vitamin B , so now that I have watched your extremely in depth explanation about the importance of taking a vitamin B supplement, it has improved my health and blood test tremendously ❤. Thank you for your wonderful video 🙏.
would have been nice if you had listed some of the medications that can cause defiency in Vit 3, otherwise a very helpful video, thanks
Metformin and antibiotics
Would long term use if opioids cause issues too? I suspect so. I believe they can mess with histamine or are histamine liberators?? I've been on them way too long and have terrible gut issues. Dad had crones disease maybe I have some genetic issues aswell. Gosh it's made life hard to enjoy. Hope I can find some relief. Thanks for all the Info.
Is it worth taking these B vitamins separate as opposed to in B Complex supplement which may not contain the correct form?
You will also need a B complex with it addition to magnesium. The B vitamins all work together. Increasing one will cause a need for the increase in the others. B vitamins should never be taken singularly. Types of B1 can be mixed. The type you are increasing doesn’t have to be the same type in your complex.
Good question. Why doesnt he adresse this ? I cant understand why we have to hear hours of blah blah and at the end still dont know what to take !
I so appreciate your content Dr. Sung, but did you forget about B2, B5, B7?
Thanks Dr. Jin I want ask something that wasn’t your subject today. what means when a person have excess mucuses in the body and can we get medication for treating that?
I take B-100s everyday. I thought I was doing something good by taking the higher dose now...... I used to take B-50s. I now take extra B1 and B12 because it's suppose yo help with nerve conditions I developed.
Now i find out it's just not enough or I'm totally confused about what dosage will help. I'm not a big eater....just can't eat much all of my life, which is why I started taking supplements in my 30s thinking it was a very good move on my part....... and I'll be turning 75 soon. Now I'm worried about how much is too much of dosages my body can tolerate safely.
Thanks doc, for taking the time to explain nutrition for us. U do a great service to us all. 👍🏻
Little remark, doc doesn’t mention that B6 is neurotoxic. Beware of B6 toxicity!
Considerably helpful. Thanks
Incredible, I have undiagnosed Pernicious Anemia, iFAB negative, my doctor refuses to treat me with hydroxocobalamin and so I have been self injecting for the past 10 years. Fabulous video so happy to find you pure gold. ❤
Thanks for sharing!
Why hydroxocobalamin vs methylcobalamin?
@@olilumgbalu5653 methylcobalamin over hydroxocobalamin as methylation process has already occurred with methylcobalamin, but both are natural sources.
Wow! I've never met another person that has gone and diagnosed themselves with the same thing. They diagnose me.... I had to have a biopsy in my stomach down my throat. And yes I have my husband and checked me with the shots... And yes it does help... It sucks they're not able to take the vitamin or eat food. The only thing helps is the B12 shots directly in the blood... Have you tried iron? Also? I've been trying this in the last few days for my energy with my thyroid...
Hi Trisha, Needs must.
My iron is good, but I am a carrier for haemochromatosis H63D heterozygous.
Your thyroid is sometimes affected if you avoid healthy fats in your diet, animal fats are best.
B3 Niacin which form has the least additive effect on Purine levels in the blood? I´m trying to reduce Uric acid´s effect on my joints as well as get my oxalates levels down so that I can walk less painfully.
I have celiac disease and SIBO, and cannot get enough thiamine. I tremble when I don't have enough. The reason I believe the trembling is from lack of thiamine is that I have stopped trembling when I just started to tremble by drinking orange juice. It of course also has high levels of vitamin C and potassium, but I also take potassium all day every day so I can urinate. (My legs have been swelling, and I can't urinate unless I take lots of potassium.) The potassium doesn't stop the trembling, so I assume it is the thiamine as that is the other thing in OJ. I also take thiamine in three forms -- benfothiamine, thiamine hcl in liquid form and thiamine mononitrate. I'm going to try thiamine TTFD next. But taking the thiamine directly doesn't stop the trembling; only drinking OJ will do that.
Thank you for this amazing video!
Please could you discuss CUSHINGS syndrome.
Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹
man this is so awesome, thank you doctor for this important information that nobody tells us about!!
Can breastfeeding cause thiamin deficiency? I’ve been pregnant or breastfeeding for 9 years straight. I’m dealing with many issues now. Mostly heart symptoms and anxiety
Where is the link to purchase these vitamins you talk about? Had shingles 6 months, 2 different areas of outbreaks. Got phn..my primary is sending me to infectious disease doctor, one month wait on getting appt. I am not taking big pharma and thats my fear of even going to see him)!
Thanks for the awesome video, im showing this to my doctor!
I just found out I have a b12 lower than the level the lab can test. Its always recommended to supplement b12 as well when supplementing for a low folate, to not cause a b12 deficiency yet foods have far more folate added to them than we need and nobodys saying make sure and take b12 if you eat foods with folic acid. And yes Ive been having tingling fingers I was blaming on overuse. I hope the damage is reversable. We need to stop putting folic acid in our food.
Thank you , Dr ,good teaching,appreciate 🙏
Im gonna stay clear of B3 niacin it makes my skin red and flushed
That is normal in high doses.
U can get a non flushing form
I wish you were my family doctor. Most are too lazy to become extremely knowledgeable about this.
2000 mg of B3????? don't you mean mcg? Aren't dosages above 500 mg very dangerous?!
Right 👍 u said
Just found you , this is great can’t wait to watch more
God bless Dr.Igudia on RUclips, all my life will keep thanking you for the great help and for your product which actually works in eradicating Herpes infection out of my body system.
Very wonderful lecture . You are easy to listen to and impart great knowledge in few word . I am now hooked on your channel
Please help…
Where can I find sulbutiamine to purchase.
Great video doc Thanks for the info
My b12 levels have always been through the roof on labs but I’ve also always had iron deficiency. I believe it isn’t getting into my cells. Most doctors don’t know what to do with this in my experience. Any advice?
much appreciated doctor. Greetings from Portugal🙏
20 Years of Pain ~ No Dr ever checked me for Gout~ I do not have toe gout ~ But after taking Dark Cherry Juice for several days ~which take gout away ~ has taken my cronic pain away after years of research and doctors.
Great information thank you. I have trigger fingers on both hands and seldom remember my dreams, so I wll order some B6 and see if there is any improvement. Thanks again Doc. 👍👍😃
Is there a lab test(blood) for B1?
Cataracts. Are you saying that consuming vitamins can clear up cataracts?
Would love to hear his response to this as well
Dear Dr Jin .does Thiamine have to do with Parkinson's and does it really help Parkinson's patients ?
WOW I need to speak to my Dr.'s my MCV has been over 96 for years and they never said a peep. I do take vitamins but recently have increased them as well as changed my intake of certain foods. I feel much better as well. I need to request that MTHFR gene as well. I always go over my lab reports but it seems like my doctors are missing something.
I think this whole world population is low on most all of these. We most likely do not have diabetes , neuropathy, and low energy I think it's a big lack of doctors want patients so let's treat symptoms not the cause of symptoms. Most foods are seriously lacking in vital nutrients, minerals and vitamins. Yes, and we eat the quick junk. Hence we are quickly becoming diabetics with fatty livers, dang it. Heads up people. Metformin depletes B. Cyanocobalamin B12 is synthetic, let's go forward aware. Go natural, eat better
Replaying ang taking notes! So informative.
greate video dr Jin, love the way you explain things you make it so clear and interesting.
how come you haven't talked about B5 btw..???
would love to hear your thoughts about it and if does help sleep ??
i keep waking up between 2-4 and cant fall back to sleep 2-3 hours later and wake up tired and feel dead the rest of the day :(
Dr. Jin, out there, there is so much confusion on the water-soluble B Vitamins. I have been taking Daneuron brand : one capsule B1 100mg, B6 200mg, and B12 400 IU. The directions on the label : As a dietary supplement, take 1-3 capsules daily or as required by your health professional. I take 2 capsules a day in the morning on empty stomach during my fasting window [IF 16:8]. I have been taking these 3 B vitamins for 3 years now.
Out of the blue, I am told there are more than one forms of B1 the best form is Benfotiamine, Vitamin B6 the best form is P5P, and Vitamin B12 the best form is methylcobalamin. What is your take? May I have your comment please.
Great video! I have a swallowing, esophageal disease and can't swallow the pills. And if I am able to swallow some of them, I will regard to take them up later.
Is there a solution for b vitamin supplementation someone like me?
Liquid drops or intravenous
I have PLME and since I have been taking increased B vitamins especially the Niacin I have noticed less damage and increased recover time for any damage I do get. thank you for this video I am enjoying your content.

I've had macrocytic anemia for over 7 years and no doctor has ever told me it could be a b6 deficiency?? I have an mcv of 102 and mch of 34.4!! I'm worried about b6 toxicity though 😧
Purchased a full-spectrum Vit. B blend - it does not list B 1 as included. Is there a reason 3 6 7 9 and 12 are included - but, not B 1 ?
Waooo great video and the information is so helpful. I have not heard any body go into details like you did. 100% 👏👍🏾🙏🏾
Hello Dr. Jin, which form of vitamin B1 is better; the Benfotianmine or the Allithiamine? what are the differences?
Good afternoon Dr.JinSung. during the 3 day water fasting, can I have coconut water or eat the natural sugar cane?
