Benfotiamine (300 mg)

Description

Product overview

Doctor’s Best Benfotiamine is a unique fat-soluble derivative of vitamin B1 (thiamine) that provides superior absorption by readily passing through intestinal cells where it is converted into the essential vitamin thiamine (B1). It supports normal glucose metabolism, a healthy nervous system and supports healthy aging.

• Helps maintain healthy cells in the presence of blood glucose
• Antioxidant protection against the formation of Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) associated with premature aging
• Supports transketolase, a cellular enzyme essential for maintenance of normal glucose metabolic pathways.

Why Benfotiamine?

Benfotiamine offers greater uptake in the body and physiological activity than water-soluble thiamine, particularly at higher doses, as it readily passes through intestinal cells for use. Unlike regular water-soluble thiamine which exhibits a rapid decline in absorption in doses above 5mg, benfotiamine’s superior absorption can greatly improve thiamine status.

This much-needed vitamin supports healthy glucose metabolism and nervous system function, including nerve cell health, sensory function, and cognitive health. It also has the added benefit of providing antioxidant support, particularly against the premature aging effects of damaging Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs) associated with the oxidative stress.
