Nancy Bean+FollowThis Vitamin Might Be Your Gut’s Secret WeaponWho knew your bathroom schedule could be tied to a vitamin? A massive new study found that vitamin B1 (thiamine)—yep, the one in tons of everyday foods—might help control how fast food moves through your digestive system. People who ate more B1 tended to have more frequent bathroom trips, but your genes also play a role. Before you start popping supplements, the experts say more research is needed. Still, wild to think your diet could be influencing your gut this much! #Health #Diet #VitaminB1180Share
James Brady+FollowScientists Just Proved a Wild Vitamin TheoryRemember that “crazy” vitamin B1 idea from 1958? Turns out, it was spot on! Scientists finally caught the super-reactive carbene that everyone thought couldn’t survive in water—right inside a vitamin B1-like system. Not only does this settle a decades-old debate, but it could also make drug manufacturing way greener by letting us use water instead of toxic solvents. Old-school chemistry just got a major upgrade! #Science #ScienceNews #VitaminB100Share
