What is VITAMIN B1 (Thiamine)?

This test measures the level of Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) in your blood. Thiamine is essential for converting food into energy, supporting nerve function, and maintaining a healthy heart.

Why is this test important?

A Thiamine test helps diagnose Vitamin B1 deficiency, which can lead to conditions like beriberi or Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, affecting the nervous system and heart. It's important for individuals with alcoholism, malnutrition, or certain medical conditions.

How to Prepare

Fasting for 8-12 hours may be required. Please confirm with your healthcare provider.
