(*) See References and Disclaimer at the bottom of the page.

Our Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Rich Pericarp Mangosteen contains thiamine (B1). Prolonged thiamine deficiency results in beriberi,(1*)  which is characterized by a loss of appetite, weight loss, mental confusion, muscle wasting, nerve damage, rapid heartbeat, an enlarged heart and sometimes edema (swelling due to fluid buildup).(2*)  

As with the B-complex vitamins, thiamine partners with other enzymes to manage the body's cellular activity.(3*)  It also plays a significant role in the nervous system's energy metabolism as it's needed to make ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) that is required by every cell in the body.(4*)

Sources of Thiamine (B1)

Pork (Ham & Pork Chops), Sunflower Seeds, Soymilk and our Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Rich Pericarp Mangosteen.
