Highly bioavailable Vitamin B1 Supports nerve and eye health during hyperglycemia Helps protect kidneys from sugar damage High capsule count for flexible dosing options Benfotiamine is a naturally occurring form of thiamine (Vitamin B1) that has been shown to be 5 times more absorbable than ordinary thiamine because it more easily crosses the cell membrane. The benefits of thiamine revolve around its ability to block glycation. Glycation is a normal, spontaneous process that occurs when proteins or lipids combine with sugar in the bloodstream, leading to the formation of harmful compounds called advanced glycation end-products or "AGEs." Hyperglycemia increases the formation of AGEs, which leads to significant tissue dysfunction, disruption of protein structure, DNA damage, and accelerated aging. A prime example is the nerve damage observed in parts such as the limbs, heart, and eyes of diabetics. Benfotiamine has the unique ability to block the formation of AGEs, and supplementation with this compound can help reduce nerve pain and improve nerve function. Numerous human clinical trials have demonstrated that benfotiamine is a powerful support for nerve function in cases of diabetic neuropathy. Ordinary thiamine is unable to block the glycation process. With our modern diet high in sugar, millions of people suffer from the many adverse effects of excess sugar on the body. Benfotiamine is a solution for those wishing to protect themselves from harmful effects such as nerve damage and accelerated cellular aging. In 2001, AOR was the first supplement manufacturing company to market benfotiamine in North America. Benfotiamine is a natural, bioavailable form of Vitamin B1 that can help reduce the symptoms and complications of poorly controlled blood sugar. AOR's Benfotiamine is one of the few products on the market containing an active form of B1 at a dose supported by scientific data.
