Daily heavy drinking made me extremely deficient in thiamine (vitamin B1). Lucky me still had a bottle of thiamine HCL lying around which I hadn’t touched in years. One month into replenishing my thiamine levels, my alcohol tolerance has dropped significantly. On top of that, my sleep improved significantly, I’m mentally sharper and lactic acid buildup in my muscles is clearing much faster. Before that, simply going for a walk or doing the groceries would leave me sore and exhausted for days. I could down a bottle of whisky and a case of beer in a single night no problem, which is not normal. Especially considering I’m a slim person who eats one meal a day max. I wouldn’t even feel the alcohol if I didn’t drink on empty stomach.

tl;dr: Alcohol tolerance is inversely related to thiamine status
