What it is

Thiamine mononitrate is a synthetic form of thiamine, also known as vitamin B1. Thiamine is an essential nutrient that plays a key role in energy metabolism. It is commonly produced through chemical synthesis.

Why it's used

Thiamine mononitrate is primarily added to foods as a nutrient supplement to fortify them and help consumers meet their daily thiamine requirements. It is frequently found in enriched grain products like bread, cereals, and pasta, as well as in some processed foods.

Health notes

In the U.S., thiamine mononitrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a nutrient. Thiamine is essential for nerve function and energy production. JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives) has evaluated thiamine mononitrate and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary intake.

Allergen info

Thiamine mononitrate is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens and does not contain gluten.
