GI Beriberi

[Lilja]

Hello everybody!

I rarely visit this group, but thought I would update you of something I have experienced.

After having implemented the Root Cause Protocol, which is based on healing with minerals and vitamins, getting rid of excess iron in the blood etc, I came across a new group concentrating on Thiamine (vitamin B1).

The Root Cause Protocol helped me a lot, but I was still not walking straight, had poor appetite, poor sleep, afraid of people. Well, in short I felt that the protocol did miss something. So I started reading the studies Derrick Lonsdale has done, and I also started to follow Elliot Overton and his work with B1, and thought I would give it a try, and started supplementing with vitamin B1 (a product called Allithiamine). Allithiamine, Benfothiamine and Sulbuthiamine are said to be the best forms of Thiamine.

I then discovered that B1 helped me a lot. My gait has improved, I eat well, I'm not afraid of meeting people in social settings.

I'm not looking for a diagnosis, I only want to get my health back. But, there is something called GI Beriberi, and I have started connecting the dots.

For those of you who are interested in reading about this phenomenon, here are two articles.

Hi Lilja,

Thanks for sharing. I have a hunch that we eventually tend to run the risk of becoming deficient in virtually any of the "B" vitamins. Some seem to be more important than others.

B1 = the great mimicker
