Vitamin B1 molecule
Vitamin B1 molecule. Computer model showing the structure of a molecule of vitamin B1 (thiamine). Vitamin B1 is an essential nutrient that humans are unable to produce and need to obtain from their diet. It is found in flour, beans, pork, and salmon. Vitamin B1 is important for the normal function of the heart, muscles and nervous system, as well as normal growth and development. Deficiency can lead to the disease beriberi, which causes weight loss, emotional disturbances, and limb pain and weakness. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded carbon (grey), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue), oxygen (red), sulphur (yellow)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a Vitamin B1 molecule, also known as thiamine. Through a computer-generated model, we can observe the arrangement of atoms that compose this essential nutrient. Humans are unable to produce Vitamin B1 naturally and must acquire it from their diet. Flour, beans, pork, and salmon are some common sources of this vital vitamin. Vitamin B1 plays a crucial role in maintaining the normal functioning of our heart, muscles, and nervous system. It is also indispensable for proper growth and development. A deficiency in Vitamin B1 can lead to beriberi disease characterized by weight loss, emotional disturbances, limb pain, and weakness. In this visually striking image, atoms are represented as spheres with distinct colors: carbon (grey), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue), oxygen (red), and sulphur (yellow). The molecular model provides us with an insight into the complex biochemical composition of this water-soluble compound. Science Photo Library has beautifully captured the essence of this biological marvel through their artwork. This print serves not only as an aesthetic piece but also as a reminder of the importance of nutrition in our lives.
