Foods high in Thiamin (B1) (USDA Foundation)

The 1.2 mg Daily Value for thiamin is a target, not a ceiling. Your body cannot store this B vitamin, so you need a steady supply from food each day to fuel the chemical reactions that turn carbohydrates, protein and fat into usable energy. The table below shows which foods deliver the most per 100 g.

Thiamin concentrates in seeds, nuts, pork and whole grains; milling removes it from white flour and white rice unless they are fortified. One caveat: a food ranked high here might still contribute little thiamin to your diet if you eat it in small quantities. Check the serving size alongside the ranking.

FDA daily value: 1.2 mg
