Diabetics need more vitamin B1 (thiamine)

Diabetes damage linked to vitamin B1 shortage - Telegraph

Extract:

"Diabetics have three-quarters less vitamin B1 in their blood than healthy people, research has shown.

A study by the University of Warwick has linked this shortfall, which occurs in sufferers with both type one and two of the disease, to damage to the kidneys, retina and nerves in the arms and legs that are all common symptoms of the disease.

Prof Paul Thornalley, from the university, said that vitamin supplements could be taken by all diabetics and would work alongside conventional glucose controls.

The study is published in Diabetologia, the diabetes journal. A LACK of vitamin B1 has been linked to vascular disease in diabetes sufferers."
