The Vitamin B1 Test measures the level of thiamine in the blood to help assess whether a deficiency is present.
About Vitamin B1 Test | Vitamin Deficiency Tests in Pasadena
Thiamine plays an essential role in converting carbohydrates into energy and in supporting normal nerve and muscle function.
The vitamin is concentrated in whole grains, legumes, pork, and certain fortified foods, and it is absorbed primarily in the small intestine.
Conditions that impair absorption, increase urinary losses, or raise metabolic demand can deplete thiamine even when dietary intake appears adequate.
A blood measurement of vitamin B1 is used alongside clinical evaluation to identify a deficiency and to guide appropriate follow-up.
