Fat and water soluble vitamin B1
Can activate glucose metabolism
May help maintain healthy endothelial function

Mega Benfotiamine from Life Extension delivers a fat and water soluble form of vitamin B1 (thiamine). It helps support healthy blood sugar metabolism and helps protect the body's tissues against advanced glycation end products and oxidative stress. It is fat-soluble and can easily penetrate into the inside of cells. It is also more bioavailable than the water-soluble thiamine. Overall, benfotiamine can activate glucose metabolism and promote healthy blood glucose levels in those already within normal range. It can also reduce formation of advanced glycation end products especially inside endothelial, retinal, kidney and nerve cells. Benfotiamine also helps maintain healthy endothelial function.
