Abstract
Background: Despite the crucial role of thiamine in glucose and energy metabolism pathways, there has been no published study examining the impact of thiamine on energy metabolism in humans. Objective: To assess the effects of thiamine supplementation on resting energy expenditure (REE) in individuals with hyperglycemia. Methods: Twelve hyperglycemic patients completed this double-blind, randomized trial, where all participants received both thiamine (300 mg/day) and matched placebo for 6 weeks in a cross-over manner. REE was assessed by indirect calorimetry. Anthropometric measurements, fasting and 2-h plasma glucose, and glucose-induced thermogenesis were also assessed at the beginning and on the completion of each six-week phase. Results: Participants consuming thiamine supplements experienced a significant decrease in the REE assessed at week six compared to the baseline mean (SE): 1478.93 (73.62) vs.1526.40 (73.46) kcal/d, p = 0.02, and the placebo arm (p = 0.002). These results did not change significantly after adjusting for the participants� body weight and physical activity as potential confounders. Six-week intervention had no significant effect on the participants� body weight or waist circumference, in either supplement or placebo arms (all p values>0.05). However, correlation analysis highlighted significant positive relationships between the changes in REE, and those in fasting (rs = 0.497, p = 0.019) and 2-h plasma glucose (rs = 0.498, p = 0.018) during the six-week intervention period. Conclusion: Supplementation with high-dose thiamine may attenuate REE in patients with impaired glucose regulation. Our findings suggest that the impact of thiamine on REE may in part be explained by improved glycemic control.
