Thiamine is supposed to be beneficial to the kidneys, even for end stage renal disease. Dialysis depletes thiamine.I keep coming back to this thread. I have severe scarring on my kidneys and am on dialysis. I have SCOURED the web for end-stage renal disease treatments, both verifiable and one from straight up quacks. Usually, for terminal disease you can find some people shilling some sort of absurd snake oil or something, but for ESRD....nothing lol. It's almost suspicious,
Thiamine status in end-stage chronic kidney disease patients: a single-center study - PubMed
The proportion of end-stage CKD patients with low blood thiamine concentration is high. Low physical function (low BI score) is an independent risk factor of thiamine deficiency. Clinicians should be aware of thiamine deficiency in end-stage CKD patients, especially those with low physical function.

Thiamine Diphosphate Status and Dialysis-Related Losses in End-Stage Kidney Disease Patients Treated with Hemodialysis - PubMed
TDP, a bioactive compound of vitamin B1, is substantially lost during the HD procedure, and the magnitude of its loss is associated with the patient's body weight but it is not influenced by vitamin B1 dietary intake and standard supplementation dose.

Thiamine deficiency and unexplained encephalopathy in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients - PubMed
Patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing regular dialysis are prone to encephalopathy, but the cause is often unclear. Dialysis patients are at risk for thiamine deficiency, which may mimic many uremic complications, including encephalopathy. To determine whether unexplained...

Effect of chronic kidney disease on the expression of thiamin and folic acid transporters - PubMed
CKD results in marked down-regulation in the expression of folate and thiamin transporters in the intestine, heart, liver and brain. These events can lead to reduced intestinal absorption and impaired cellular homeostasis of these essential micronutrients despite their normal plasma levels.
