Does this change anything in terms of healthy diets? And if it doesn't, is it because this theory already being used in healthy diets? Or is it meaningless?

The article says that carbenes can be used to make chemical reactions less toxic, but they were too unstable to use until now.

Interesting. So it's mostly about what those carbenes can be used rather than how it will change our understanding of B1?

Our new understanding of B1 is allowing us to use carbenes, yes. Also, they proved some old dude right.
