Interesting study with chickens where Thiamine HCL (at reasonable dosages) increased muscle mass more than clenbuterol. (chickens have been known to be insensitive to beta-agonists though, so that part makes sense.)

Breast muscle weight increased while total body weight went slightly down.

I loved Thiamine HCL.

It gives me so much energy and improves my mental clarity.

I have 50mg once a week now.

There was a period when I was using at least 1000mg per week.

Why are you using such a low dose now compared to what is typically used in human research: 300-1500mg a day?

Is mononitrate OK? Thiamine can lower stomach acid, so HCL might be helpful to offset it..?

I prefer HCl because synthetic nitrates can increase oxidative stress in high doses. Low doses should be ok though.

careful with the higher doses tho, 1500mg/day dramatically increased hair shedding for me, which usually doesnt happen unless ive been in a severe caloric deficit for months

Have you been able to find lower doses that still worked for you?

yeah sure i mean even 250mg is pretty noticeable esp if combined with other CA inhibitors
What other CA inhibitors have you used?
