Why supplement?
Water-soluble B1 nitrate
Thiamin mononitrate is more often chosen for tablets that need stability. It is still a water-soluble B1 salt and cannot be swapped 1:1 by raw-material weight with the hydrochloride.
Carbohydrate to energy
Thiamin mononitrate is a source of Vitamin B1 (Thiamin). Thiamin is a cofactor for enzymes such as pyruvate dehydrogenase. This form brings B1 into a supplement and is used to restore coenzyme function when the diet is polished rice or absorption is poor.
How to take it

Intravenous thiamine should be given only by a professional.
· Usual oral doses are generally well tolerated
· Injectable forms rarely cause severe allergic reactions.
Long-term dependenceNot addictive; water-soluble vitamins are not usually stored in large amounts.
