Helping the thyroid gland and reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases at the same time without special supplements, but with a vitamin, B1 or thiamine : this is the direction of the work of Dr. Antonio Costantini, a neurologist from Viterbo, who has been treating affected patients for some time. from Hashimoto’s and Parkinson’s thyroiditis with supplementation of vitamin B1. In fact, Dr. Costantini has published a study on the treatment of three cases of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (a type of autoimmune hypothyroidism) by administering high doses of thiamine to patients (600 mg in oral administration).
This administration would have led to an improvement or regression of symptoms, particularly those related to chronic fatigue. The sense of fatigue is in fact one of the symptoms most felt in Hashimoto sufferers according to recent studies.  

But what are the properties of thiamine? Thiamine would help the body to produce adenosine triphosphate, which is essential for optimizing carbohydrate metabolism; it would maintain proper functioning of the brain and nervous system; it serves to keep skin, eyes, heart and liver healthy.
Where can we find vitamin B1 or thiamine? Can we consider this vitamin in the diet for hypothyroidism? On page two I will list a number of foods that naturally contain vitamin B1, and that can help you relieve symptoms. ( CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO ).
