BulkSupplementsThiamine HCl Powder - Thiamine Hydrochloride, B1 Vitamins, Thiamine B1 Supplement, Thiamine 100mg - Gluten Free, 100mg per Serving, 100g (3.5 oz) (Pack of 1)

I'm so glad I found this store on Amazon! I have a sick goat. She is 12 yrs old and all of her teeth are loose. Goats only have a bottom layer of teeth, only gums on top, no teeth. She has been unable to chew hay properly, and goats need hay for digestion and proper function of their rumen (they have multiple stomachs). And if the rumen doesn't function properly the goat ends up with a Thiamine deficiency. And that in turn causes bloat, a large distended belly. For years I've been buying thiamine injections from my veterinarian on an emergency basis. Recently I decided to research giving her a daily thiamine supplement and ran across BulkSupplements. After reading reviews and realizing this powder is very potent and clean, I decided to give it a try. I also bought B12 powder since the vet always sends an injection with that too. I've been giving "Lily" a quarter teaspoon of each powder mixed in with powdered nursing milk and she loves it. She's been bloated for about a week and had not responded to injections, but after giving her the powder once a day for the past two days she seemed to be more active today. I'm not positive this will alleviate the problem with my goat, but I can definitely say I'm very pleased with the quality and price of these powders. This is a great option for those of us who prefer to take charge of our (and our pets) health, and take advantage of quality supplements. Five stars for a clean, quality and affordable option! Pic of Lily attached.

I have purchased from BulkSupplements and as always, am pleased with the way on which they package and ship the product. The powder has a very light scent of 'the B vitamin stink" but it is far less offensive that taking a B-complex. (Although I think B3 is the one that REALLY smells bad.)The powder is super fine, one of those you want to be careful with lest you inhale it. Still, it has no lumps and seems to only have a light salty taste upon my first experience. I am hoping that this will not only give me energy, but will help to improve my overall health. I am combining this with B6 and Biotin for energy and also hair,skin, and nails.I definitely feel an increase in energy when I take the B vitamins, and I prefer it over something like caffeine since I don't crash afterward .I will purchase this again when I do eventually run out, but that will probably be awhile!

This supplement is a B vitamin, and if you have ever smelled the smell of old multivitamins, this will remind you instantly of that. The issue they're being taken for has subsided, so it has proven to me that they work, but the taste and smell is so putrid that no amount of flavoring seems to diminish it at all. Best to take quickly in a small amount of liquid (like a shot glass!) and then chase it with a larger amount of liquid immediately.

The purity of the this very important nutrient (that gets lost through coffee, alcohol, and cigarettes) is so nice to have after years of taking this in other forms. The mylar bag is especially appreciated for long-term storage when needed, and the price is right. Thank you for this wonderful product as well as the other fresh and pure vitamins you are offering under this category of which I will buy in the future.

After several years of heavy alcohol abuse, a few weeks ago I was able to get sober with the help of my physician. I did a lot of research on how to correct any damage or deficits caused by the alcohol and found that, among other things, I had many of the symptoms of thiamin deficiency. I also read that alcoholics don't absorb it through the intestines very well, and so I bought this pure powder supplement, hoping to overcome that problem.I rubbed the powder under my tongue because I know that from there it can be absorbed directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the GI tract. It is very bitter on the tongue but by rubbing it under the tongue, holding it there for a couple of minutes, and then washing it down with a sweet drink I can avoid tasting it.The first thing I noticed, the very first day, was that that evening I felt sleepy and for the first time in months? years? I fell asleep quickly and naturally without the aid of alcohol, sleeping pills or melatonin. I slept soundly for nine solid hours and woke up feeling refreshed and energetic.The second thing I've noticed (after three days of use) is that I have a lot more energy, and that the chronic swelling that had developed in my feet and ankles has disappeared despite the fact that, if anything, my intake of sodium has increased since I became sober.I can't wait to see what the next few weeks bring!

Apparently you have to buy a milligram scale to take this. Why they just don't have the measuring spoon with this... I don't know. Especially if it is going to be so technical about the amount.

Although I've been taking 25mg for years, recently I learned that some folks may be super deficient in B1. Wondering if this deficiency was at the root of my longstanding health problems, I decided to experiment with dosing using this product. Having powder handy is just so much nicer than popping 20 pills.In an Italian study, researchers gave participants between 600mg and 1,800mg. I've used this powder to try different dosages to see if it helped me like those in the study (with CFS and other potentially longstanding beriberi problems, specifically constipation). Just so you know, this powder doesn't smell but its pretty bitter. I'm not someone who cares about that, but I realize some people do.Turns out that to make acetylcholine your body needs both B1 and choline, and that can help with constipation (lifelong for me). I think I'm finally getting somewhere with this. Apparently it can take 6+ months to recover. While I started out taking high dosages, I found I needed to scale back to 600mg (the smallest amount that yielded results in the Italian study). I got sick within a week (which for me is a good sign--called a "paradoxical reaction" or herxheimer). Crossing my fingers.
