Support against oxidative stress. Benfotiamine displays direct antioxidant action in vitro, and preliminary research with human subjects suggests that this activity can be advantageous in helping to safeguard the integrity of human DNA by increasing the antioxidant capacity of plasma. In the laboratory, when human, rat, and porcine kidney cells were exposed to toxins that assault the integrity of DNA, benfotiamine was able to reduce oxidative stress under these circumstances. Benfotiamine, like vitamins C and E, can deter the activation of NF-kB (a DNA-binding factor known to be activated by oxidative stress-generated reactive oxygen species) for more balanced immune responses. Furthermore, recent in vitro results suggest that the beneficial antioxidant properties of benfotiamine could work against some forms of lipid peroxidation. An animal model suggests that during oxidative stress generated by excess glucose, benfotiamine has the capacity to reduce levels of superoxide and hydroxyl radicals in the heart. Similarly, an animal model of induced oxidative stress in the cerebral cortex (the outer most layer of the brain) suggests a beneficial antioxidant effect of benfotiamine. Supports blood levels of thiamin pyrophosphate (TTP), the biologically active co–enzyme form of thiamin* Helps maintain healthy glucose metabolism. Benfotiamine increases blood and tissue levels of thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP), the biologically active co-enzyme form of thiamin. TPP acts as a co-enzyme for three critical enzymes involved in glucose metabolism: 1) transketolase, 2) pyruvate dehydrogenase, and 3) a-ketoglutarate decarboxylase. The latter two enzymes are involved in utilizing glucose for fuel. Thus, TTP is vital to the cell’s energy supply. Stimulates transketolase, a cellular enzyme essential for maintenance of normal glucose metabolic pathways. Supports healthy aging. Disrupts formation of Advanced Glycation End-Products (AGEs). Helps maintain healthy circulation.

• BENFOTIAMINE - A fat-soluble highly bioavailable derivative of thiamine (Vitamin B1)* Benfotiamine is activated in the bloodstream to release thiamine, and remains available in the body 4 times longer than water-soluble thiamin.*
• GLUCOSE METABOLISM SUPPORT - Glucose is one of our body’s best sources of energy, and is available through bread, fruits, vegetables and more. Taking Benfotiamine daily can assist in regulating glucose levels, already within normal range.*
• Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble derivative of thiamine, a super nutrient linked to maintaining normal glucose levels.* Benfotiamine is more bioavailable and can be absorbed at higher doses than thiamine, also protects against oxidative stress.*
• MAINTAINS NERVOUS SYSTEM HEALTH – The blood levels of vitamin B1 can be boosted by taking Benfotiamine, supporting the body’s nerves and nervous system.*
• TRUSTED AND PURE - 150mg of Benfotiamine in every capsule, 360 capsules per bottle. Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free and Soy-Free. Doctor's Best Benfotiamine is crafted with care, offering a clean and reliable supplement for your well-being.
