I’ve done a post few posts on here with tacos. So where am I going with all of this? Well once I discovered traditional Mexican restaurants, I realized there are so many varieties of delicious tacos. You can find my recipe for Homemade Taco Seasoning on the blog! That way on busy weeknights, I can still make tacos quickly. I have a dedicated jar, and I make a large quantity at once. I realized I can make my own taco seasoning at home, with ingredients out of my spice cupboard, without all the added preservatives. The package of taco seasoning has a massive list of ingredients that not only scare me but that I can’t pronounce. The shells can last years on the shelf and never expire or go bad (kind of like McDonald’s fries). I made the sad decision to graduate from them for a few reasons. I remember getting the taco shells, salsa, and taco seasoning.ĭoes this bring back memories for anyone else? Or do you still use them!? They were easy to make and super delicious. I made beef tacos all the time and loved them. I didn’t start eating them until I was a teenager, and at that point, it was Old El Paso! Having a mom with a British background meant we mostly ate meat and potatoes. When I was growing up, we never ate tacos. I love that the varieties of tacos are endless. They really should be their own food group. Tacos are just one of those necessary foods in life. Thiamine deficiency is called Beriberi which translates as "I can't, I can't" because of the weakness that results.I know you got excited when you saw “tacos” in the title of this post.

I've experienced thiamine deficiency myself. Then comes the brain function losses, memory failures, disorientation, etc. Because tests for thiamine deficiency take so long and are so expensive, doctors tend to give high dose Thiamine first because damage from Thiamine deficiency can be life threatening or permanent.įoot drop, tachycardia and blurry vision along with peripheral neuropathy will be the next symptoms. Your doctor can administer high dose thiamine, or you take over the counter thiamine supplements. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in the high amounts needed to correct Thiamine deficiency. WHO uses thiamine hydrochloride (500- 2000mg/day), but other forms of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and Tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide-TTFD) can also be used.

The World Health Organization WHO says that a thiamine deficiency can be diagnosed if thiamine is administered and improvement is seen. Thiamine deficiency can occur in as little as three to nine days! We need more thiamine when we have a physical illness and emotional stress. Your protein powder may have plenty of amino acids, but doesn't contain the essential B vitamins. Vegetables and fruits have very little thiamine.

Sources of B vitamins include meats and liver. You have NOT been eating sources of B vitamins like Thiamine in the past two weeks. Insomnia is another symptom of Thiamine deficiency. Chills can occur because the body has trouble regulating body temperature without enough Thiamine. But no fever 😕 so idk."įeeling weak and syncope (fainting) can occur in Thiamine deficiency because the body has trouble regulating blood pressure.
