Benfotiamine 300mg Capsule by Doctor's Best - Vitamin B1 Support

What is Doctor's Best Benfotiamine 300mg capsule?

Benfotiamine (S-benzoylthiamine-O-monophosphate) is a fat-soluble synthetic derivative of thiamine, a vitamin B1 compound in the allithiamine family. This advanced benfotiamine formulation is more bioavailable and physiologically active than standard thiamine. Each benfotiamine capsule helps maintain healthy cells in the presence of blood glucose, provides support against oxidative stress, and supports healthy aging.

How does benfotiamine support glucose metabolism and cellular health?

Benfotiamine raises the blood level of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), the biologically active coenzyme of thiamine, and stimulates transketolase, a cellular enzyme essential for the maintenance of normal glucose metabolic pathways. Benfotiamine can greatly improve thiamine status, especially compared to regular forms of thiamine.

Clinical Evidence: In a randomized, double-blind crossover trial comparing the bioavailability of benfotiamine to thiamine mononitrate (the most common supplemental form of vitamin B1) in 12 individuals, benfotiamine caused an average 5-fold greater increase in blood thiamine levels than thiamine mononitrate, with concomitant greater thiamine concentration in red blood cells. Benfotiamine is converted to S-benzoylthiamine through digestive tract removal of the O-monophosphate, which readily passes through intestinal cells and converts into thiamine.

Why choose Doctor's Best Benfotiamine supplement?

Benfotiamine is fat-soluble and more bioavailable and physiologically active than standard thiamine. This benfotiamine supplement helps maintain healthy cells in the presence of blood glucose, provides support against oxidative stress, and supports healthy aging.

How benfotiamine maintains healthy glucose metabolism: Benfotiamine increases blood and tissue levels of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), the biologically active coenzyme form of thiamine. TPP acts as a coenzyme for three critical enzymes involved in glucose metabolism:

• Transketolase
• Pyruvate dehydrogenase
• Alpha-ketoglutarate decarboxylase

The latter two enzymes are involved in utilizing glucose for fuel. Thus, TPP is vital to the cell's energy supply.
