Thiamine or Vitamin B1 is one of the water-soluble B vitamins, found in many food sources such as whole grains, legumes, fish, beans, meat, and nuts. It is used as a dietary supplement and as a medication. It is manufactured in different forms like powder, tablets, and capsules.

In animals, the product is found in animals to protect the rat liver and kidney against lead-induced lipid peroxidation. In humans, it plays an important role in energy metabolism and the development and growth of functional cells. In addition, it helps to strengthen the immunity in the human body.
The increasing number of diseases and little knowledge and awareness about thiamine deficiency can be a restraint for the market growth. This deficiency can cause many other serious health disorders. On the other hand, this can also prove to have a positive impact on the market as this gives manufacturers opportunities to grow and capture maximum market share by the means of their strategic initiatives.
Dietary supplements dominated the market with a revenue share of over 30.0% in 2021.
