Low Thiamine can also cause psychosis.

pegasusprodetail :

About to roll up and research

Nayla Lee :

This wasn’t happening before big business got into it

Erin :

I have a friend who was mis-diagnosed with Crohn’s disease and suffered for YEARS. Her nausea and pain was so severe that she consistently increased her smoking of MJ to relieve the symptoms only to find out later that she had CHS and was actually having the symptoms due to her marijuana use. As a speech language pathologist, I am seeing a significant increase in my patients with Wernickes encephalopathy which develops into Korsakoff syndrome. Young patients in their 30’s-50’s and it’s awful. They’re all taking thiamine supplements by the time I see them, but for the most part, it’s too late because they already have irreversible damage. I have three people on my caseload right now that have such severe ataxic dysarthria and pharyngeal dysphagia that they’re impossible to understand and they are aspirating on 75% of the things they’re eating and drinking.

bre :

so you're saying I just need to take a vitamin

redwitchrising :

Maybe we should just start checking people’s vitamins regularly instead of just listening to the heart, lungs, and looking in ears/nose/mouth and calling someone healthy. I’m jussayin.

Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 :

What is a safe and effective dosage for general health?

392hellhound :

Never heard of this until the government got involved. 😑

Jessie Gray :

Pumpkin seeds are high in thiamine and magnesium ..here’s a list of some more: dark leafy greens, salmon, black beans, spinach, asparagus, peas, black beans, pork, liver, seeds, nuts. Real food is a better source than man-made supplements.

Spammish Rice :

I literally do not care about any medical news until women's health gets serious research

shoregirl6 :

What magnesium please?

:

You all saying this isn’t real, it doesn’t effect everyone. He’s giving information instead of fear mongering. He’s not even telling you to stop. He’s giving information. Honestly thank you so much. My partner has been suffering from this and I’m grateful for real advice to try. Thank you!!
