Thiamine Deficiency Protocols & Addressing Nutrient Interactions

This 60-page document is divided into two sections:

- Part 1: Protocols for addressing thiamine deficiency & thiamine-responsive conditions

- Part 2: Addressing the paradoxical reaction and identifying nutritional imbalances

The first section of the document covers:

• A simple introduction to the different forms of supplemental thiamine

• An explanation of the “paradoxical reaction”

• Step-by-step protocols on starting thiamine supplementation for both sensitive & non-sensitive individuals

• Step-by-step protocols for mega-dosing different forms of thiamine

• Recommended co-factors to support thiamine repletion

• Example protocols for different health issues including:

- Hypochlorhydria, GERD, dysmotility & gastroparesis,
- Cholestasis, liver & gallbladder dysfunction,
- Intestinal Permeability, SIBO/IBS-Constipation
- Neuroinflammation, neuropathy & nerve pain

- Type 2 diabetes
- Fibromyalgia
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
- Interstitial cystitis / Bladder dysfunction
- Premenstrual syndrome

The second section of the document includes:

• An explanation of potential problems with thiamine testing, and a list of tests which may indicate deficiency

• A closer look at the interactions between thiamine and other nutrients

• Identification of the most common symptoms experienced with thiamine supplementation

• Which symptoms suggest an increased demand for different nutrients

• How to test for different nutrients in blood and urine

• Interpretation of common test markers associated with nutritional insufficiency

• Guidance on which forms of nutrients are best to supplement with and at what dose
