Thiamine is a type of vitamin B. Several different substances belong to the group of vitamins known as the B vitamins. Thiamine is known as vitamin B1.
Foods that are good natural sources of thiamine are cereals, nuts, peas, beans and pork. Although thiamine deficiency tends to be rare in the UK, your doctor may recommend that you take a supplement of thiamine if for some reason you cannot get sufficient vitamin B1 from your normal diet.
