Abstract
The daily oral admn. of 5 mg. of thiamine HC1 in tablet form to 12 young and 21 old individuals was followed by an increase of the fecal thiamine excretion corresponding to 50-75% of the thiamine dose given. The fecal excretion of thiamine returned to the original level after the thiamine supplementation had been discontinued.Keywords
