Vitamin B1 is a water-soluble vitamin needed to process carbohydrates, fat, and protein. Every cell of the body requires Vitamin B1 to make the fuel the body runs on. Nerve cells also require Vitamin B1 in order to function normally. Wheat germ, whole wheat, beans, peas, enriched flour, fish, peanuts and meat are all good sources of Vitamin B1. Vitamin B1 works hand in hand with Vitamin B2 and Vitamin B3. For this reason, nutritionists usually suggest that Vitamin B1 be taken in conjunction with other B vitamins or with a multivitamin supplement.
