Vitamin B1

Whole grain products, pork, tuna, pulses, nuts and fortified cereal products.

Riboflavin (also known as vitamin B₁) is a water-soluble vitamin that is part of the vitamin B complex. Thiamine was the first B vitamin to be discovered, hence it is also known as vitamin B₁.

Thiamine plays an important role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, certain amino acids and fatty acids, converting them into energy. It is therefore significant for the growth, development and function of the cell.
