What are your thoughts on B1? Have you tried it?

[Mau1997]

I have long covid, and everyday the neuro symptoms and mechanisms seem to approach Parkinson's disease. So, given the lack of treatments on long covid, I was thinking on trying the options for Parkinson's, and this is what I found:

I recently found this link:

B1Parkinsons.org

where they recommend high dose thiamine for brain issues.

Their argument is that thiamine "jump starts" mitochondrial production of ATP.

So, is it really a deficiency in thiamin what plays a role? Do you have experience with B1 supplements?

What are your thoughts on B1? Have you tried it?

I'm guessing you've seen the videos by the EO Nutrition YouTube channel? I think one of his arguments is that certain people may benefit from high doses of B1 because it causes cells to express genes that promote stress tolerance. He also argues that body's response to bodily trauma (i.e. surgery) or chronic disease itself can deplete thiamine, thereby causing a B1 deficiency. The 'jump starts' thing may be with what he refers to a theory where, for whatever reason, there may be an issue in absorbing or cofactor binding of B1 which creates a metabolic barrier, and by flooding cells with B1 you can overcome this barrier.

B1 therapy has nothing to do with a b1 deficiency. Read Daphne Bryans book on Amazon Parkinson’s b1 therapy and watch her utube interviews.in the last two years thousands of people including me started the protocol and it has changed my life with an endless list of symptom improvements. More energy, better balance, arm swing back, smile back, easy to turn in bed, stopped dragging right foot, and more. Do your research for confirmation of this info

Did you have any pain before you started the B1 therapy? My husband has lower back pain and unbearable pain in his right leg at night which wakes him. We are trying to find a solution without him having to take co-codamol. I am wondering if B1 might help.

Long COVID ?

Research; Nattokinase, Bromelain and NAC , please ..

[Mau1997 in reply to pacwest]

I've tried all of those, but they don't work. I feel like my brain is melting 😪

Methylene Blue has been very effective for long covid. I use it for PD. With good results. Worth researching low dose protocol, and topic in general.

[Bolt_Upright in reply to goldiewan]

I use MB also. Are you getting the powder or the liquid? I get the powder but am always looking for high quality sources (if you would like to share your source)

This is the last product I bought. I have no real reason to doubt it, but it does taste a little different than my previous brand and my tongue has been really sore for over a week so I am on a break. Could be other reasons for the tongue issue but just sharing. Their website says they are pharmacy grade but the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) says not to ingest and to wash if you get it on you (I am guessing that is a standard warning for something like this. Okay, here it is: Methylene Blue Powder - USP Grade, 99+% - 1 Gram $20 amazon.com/dp/B0BHF7W9YY?ps...

Hi, if this is repeating what you already know I apologise. The most comprehensive post C/post injection protocols I’ve seen are the FLCCC ones with good research references. World Council for Health also have a good summary flyer.

Yes yes yes. Please buy the book by Daphne Bryan on Amazon as proceeds go to more research. I started my brother WP on it 3 months ago, took several attempts to get the right dose (bit like Parkinson's meds) He took Manesium malate and a B_Complex with a low dose of B1. He's on 100mg Thiamine orally each morning along with his Mag. Then at luch he takes another Mag with the B-Complex. We are seeing really good results, though he doesn't see it like we do. The book explains every thing. Also FB page Parkinson's B1 Therapy lots of info and support there. It's a journey so don't expect miracles straight way, but it's a journey worth taking. Good luck
