Product Information

DETAILS

Benfotiamine is a natural form of thiamin (vitamin B1) that has been proven to be 5 times more absorbable than regular thiamin and has better penetration through cellular membranes. The benefit of benfotiamine centers around its ability to properly metabolize carbohydrates and avoid protein glycation, which creates Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs). 

AGEs are formed when cells are exposed to consistently high levels of blood sugar. They can lead to significant tissue and DNA damage, speed up the aging process and ultimately damage blood vessels.  Benfotiamine metabolizes carbohydrates so they cannot go on to contribute to the formation of AGEs.

Benfotiamine is a natural and bioavailable source of vitamin B1 and may be helpful in reducing the symptoms and complications of having poor carbohydrate control. AOR’s Benfotiamine is one of the few products to contain this active form of B1 in an evidence-based dose.

Discussion

Benfotiamine is a naturally-occurring form of thiamin (vitamin B1). Benfotiamine’s superior ability to penetrate cell membranes increases its bioavailability over conventional thiamin supplements. This allows for the use of benfotiamine to elicit all of the benefits of vitamin B1, such as the metabolism of carbohydrates, protein and fat, in a highly efficient manner.
