Do I need a 500 mg thiamin supplement?

The NHS says adults aged 19 to 64 need about 1 mg of thiamin a day for men and 0.8 mg for women, and that you should be able to get all the thiamin you need from a varied and balanced diet. This tablet is a high-strength supplement that provides far more than that daily amount, so it is not a way to make up a small gap in the diet. Check with a healthcare practitioner if you are unsure whether it suits you.
