True. I think the point of the article was that there is a possibility that Hashimoto's MAY have a negative impact in some people. "Researchers have theorized that some people, and in particular, those with autoimmune diseases, may have a dysfunction or enzymatic imbalance that negatively affects the body's ability to process thiamine at the cellular level." While the study was almost anecdotal (3 people), all 3 people responded to the addition of B-1 supplementation to reduce fatigue. B-1 is an inexpensive vitamin (I bought a bottle of 100ea 250mg tabs at Walmart for $4.00) to do a test run. If you feel better then keep taking. If you don't then stop.
