"Vitamin B1 – chemists call it
thiamine [structural formula on the
right] – is a mental pep pill. The
British psychologist reached this
conclusion in the 1990s. Benton got
female students to take 50 mg
vitamin B1 daily for two months and
discovered that his subjects' mood
improved and that their reactions
became quicker."
