Description
Benfotiamine, a synthetic derivative of thiamine (vitamin B*1)
which shows promise in treating a number of neurological and
vascular conditions. Benfotiamine also appears to have beneficial
anti-aging qualities, protecting human cells from harmful metabolic
end products.
Benfotiamine is not just for diabetics. Any population suffering
from conditions brought about by unknown or inadvertent thiamine
deficiencies should respond well to benfotiamine. Benfotiamine is
emerging as the most effective of the thiamine compounds.
With benfotiamine, the sustained increase of Thiamine Pyrophosphate
(TPP) and the resulting activation of the enzyme transketolase in
the system can produce beneficial effects on general nerve health,
sciatica, neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, polyneuropathy,
peripheral neuropathy (PN), shingles, herpes zoster, fibromyalgia,
general ageing, other nerve conditions, vascular health, blood
pressure and coronary health for diabetics and non-diabetics alike.
