      Some target points to deal with

      • B1 is needed for communication between the brain and the stomach (vagal innervation).
        High dose B1 is needed for passive assimilation, with staples. I’d take Mg bisglycinate every day (300 mg x 2 or x3, according to stress); and B2 50 mg (every other day, thrice a week). B2 is needed when taking B1.
      • B1 for gut motility

        SIBO, IBS, and Constipation: Unrecognized Thiamine Deficiency? – June 2020
        https://www.hormonesmatter.com/sibo-ibs-constipation-thiamine-deficiency/
        To understand how thiamine impacts gut function we have to understand the GI tract. The GI tract possesses its own individual enteric nervous system (ENS), often referred to as the second brain. (vagal innervation). Enteric neurons also use acetylcholine to initiate peristaltic contractions necessary for proper gut motility. Thiamine is necessary for the synthesis of acetylcholine and low levels produce an acetylcholine deficit, which leads to reduced vagal tone and impaired motility in the stomach and small intestine.
        => choline or glycine needed.
        For Dr. Constantini, a chronic thiamine deficiency can indirectly produce an inability to digest and absorb foods, and therefore produce a deficiency in most of the other vitamins and minerals. In fact, this is indeed something I see frequently. And sadly, as thiamine is notoriously difficult to identify through ordinary testing methods, it is mostly missed by doctors and nutritionists. To summarize, B1 is necessary in the gut for:
         Stomach acid secretion and gastric emptying
         Pancreatic digestive enzyme secretion
         Intestinal brush border enzymes
         Intestinal contractions and motility
         Vagal nerve function
        If I have problem to digest protein, Betaine HCL, at the evening meal. Digestion is optimal at midday.
        If I have problem to digest fats: Enzymedica Lypo Gold for fat digestion.
        Note: you’re not going to solve this kind of problem with 100 mg B1. Passive assimilation is needed when targeting High dose B1, in several staples, not only with B1 HCl. I can give a link for the protocol of Dr. Allil Overton, on my forum, if wanted (“mirzoune et ciboulette”)

                @LucH This is getting odd -- like there are two threads going here. I am responding to the original poster, but I guess it isn't clear from the forum format. 120mg will likely cause problems IRT Zinc supplementation. Really lower dose Zinc-Carnosine would be better IMO.

                    @zorba990 I've found that if you use the "quote" feature instead of the "reply" feature, there is less confusion. Maybe there's a glitch?

                      I take 150-200 of Lipothiamine daily in addition to a B complex. How much B2 is necessary to take with this?
                      My B- complex has 50mgs. in it.

                      I think the amount of B2 needed is tied to multiple things. For example, I do take B2 because I high dose thiamine hcl, but I also was having some eye trouble: cataracts, floaters, difficulty focusing. I've been taking about 100mgs of B2 four times a day for the past 3 years. I believe this is the reason for my greatly improved eye health, including the improvement in the cataract situation. See here: Riboflavin: The Health Benefits of a Forgotten Natural Vitamin
                      "Cataract formation is a result of protein aggregation which causes the lens to become cloudy. RF intake from food and supplements was associated with decreased risk of nuclear lens opacities [81]. Cataract formation in the general public seemed not to be associated with RF deficiency while in the elderly it might be increased due to a RF deficiency [82]. High dose of RF, 400 mg/d, appears to have a preventive effect or some beneficial effects on the development of age-related cataracts [3]. RF concentration influences the GSH concentration in the lens, while GSH protects the lens against oxidative damage and cataract development. In total, 80% of the cataract patients showed a shortage of RF [83]. "

                      Here is another article about riboflavin that might be of interest: A newly discovered anti-senescence function of vitamin B2
                      "The research team discovered a phenomenon whereby resistance to cellular senescence occurred as a result of increasing the amount of SLC52A1 produced. SLC52A1 is the protein responsible for transporting vitamin B2 into cells (vitamin B2 transporter). When SLC52A1 production was increased, cellular senescence did not occur immediately even under stress conditions (where human cells were treated with a drug to injure the DNA and induce aging). Following on from this, the researchers conducted an experiment where they exposed the cells to stress and then increased the amount of vitamin B2 in the culture solution. They found that resistance to senescence increased in accordance with the amount of vitamin B2 in the solution. Inside the cell, vitamin B2 is converted into a substance called Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD), a coenzyme that promotes the chemical reactions necessary for biological activities such as energy production. In fact, the amount of FAD in cells exposed to stress increased, which resulted in the vitamin B2 that had been transported into the cells to be converted into FAD, thus suppressing senescence."

                          My B- complex has 50mgs. in it.

                          I think the amount of B2 needed is tied to multiple things. For example, I do take B2 because I high dose thiamine hcl, but I also was having some eye trouble: cataracts, floaters, difficulty focusing. I've been taking about 100mgs of B2 four times a day for the past 3 years. I believe this is the reason for my greatly improved eye health, including the improvement in the cataract situation. See here: Riboflavin: The Health Benefits of a Forgotten Natural Vitamin
                          "Cataract formation is a result of protein aggregation which causes the lens to become cloudy. RF intake from food and supplements was associated with decreased risk of nuclear lens opacities [81]. Cataract formation in the general public seemed not to be associated with RF deficiency while in the elderly it might be increased due to a RF deficiency [82]. High dose of RF, 400 mg/d, appears to have a preventive effect or some beneficial effects on the development of age-related cataracts [3]. RF concentration influences the GSH concentration in the lens, while GSH protects the lens against oxidative damage and cataract development. In total, 80% of the cataract patients showed a shortage of RF [83]. "

                          Here is another article about riboflavin that might be of interest: A newly discovered anti-senescence function of vitamin B2
                          "The research team discovered a phenomenon whereby resistance to cellular senescence occurred as a result of increasing the amount of SLC52A1 produced. SLC52A1 is the protein responsible for transporting vitamin B2 into cells (vitamin B2 transporter). When SLC52A1 production was increased, cellular senescence did not occur immediately even under stress conditions (where human cells were treated with a drug to injure the DNA and induce aging). Following on from this, the researchers conducted an experiment where they exposed the cells to stress and then increased the amount of vitamin B2 in the culture solution. They found that resistance to senescence increased in accordance with the amount of vitamin B2 in the solution. Inside the cell, vitamin B2 is converted into a substance called Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD), a coenzyme that promotes the chemical reactions necessary for biological activities such as energy production. In fact, the amount of FAD in cells exposed to stress increased, which resulted in the vitamin B2 that had been transported into the cells to be converted into FAD, thus suppressing senescence."

                          Interesting information thats good to know.

                            Thought I should post a brief update since this thread has gotten some more attention lately: The symptoms I was dealing with have greatly improved with some diet and lifestyle changes. I've reduced my zinc supplementation to a more standard 15mg a day, but I still feel 120mg/day was beneficial as a short-term loading dose. I do get plenty of copper and manganese in my diet from regular shellfish consumption, and I've started using molasses as well. If anyone is interested, the current stack I'm running is a standard B-complex, 300mg thiamine HCL, 8000IU vitamin D, Thorne's vitamin K formula, 15mg zinc citrate, and T3/T4, progesterone, pregnenolone, and DHEA rarely as needed
