Thiamine Hcl absorption

I have a simple question. How many mgs of a single oral tablet of 100 mg Thiamine Hcl is absorbed or rather whats the maximum that could be absorbed... I know it depends on transporters and is actively absorbed at low doses and by passive diffusion at high doses..

When i take 100 mg Thiamine Hcl, i dont feel anything has gone into my brain but just 50 mgs of Allithiamine, i can actually feel something has gone in and my focus, concentration is clearer

I think I’m right in saying that oral HCl thiamine is absorbed in the intestinal tract. Research suggests that some people with Parkinson’s and people over 60, can have a dysfunctional gastrointestinal tract which makes thiamine absorption inefficient. This could be one reason why some people trying oral B1 are non-responders and/or why some need to take such high quantities before B1 works for them.I know nothing about Allithiamine.

Sorry, but if Lucien Bettendorf doesn't know, who did you write too, how can we do it?

if 100 mg is not enough try 500 mg of good thiamine (IMO not all are good, it must taste very, very bitter, firm and white).

This half tablet contains 250mg of an Italian brand thiamine hcl and rest assured it's bitter enough to make you throw up.
