Mega Benfotiamine (250 mg, 120 vegetable capsules)

Discover the benefits of fat-soluble vitamin B1 for your health

Summary
Mega Benfotiamine combines 250 mg of benfotiamine and 10 mg of thiamine (vitamin B1) per capsule to support healthy blood sugar metabolism, protect against oxidative stress and modulate glucose metabolism. With superior bioavailability and the ability to penetrate cell membranes, this product offers powerful support for energy metabolism, endothelial function and overall health.

Benefits and effects

• Support for blood sugar metabolism
  Benfotiamine helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels within the normal range while promoting glucose metabolism.

• Protection against oxidative stress and glycation products
  Protects the body's tissues against advanced glycation products (AGEs), which can accumulate with age and cause tissue damage, as well as reduce oxidative stress.

• Superior bioavailability
  As a fat-soluble form of vitamin B1, benfotiamine can penetrate cell membranes and produce a better effect than the water-soluble thiamine. Studies have shown that benfotiamine increases transketolase activity by 300%, compared to only 20% for thiamine.

• Healthy endothelial function
  Benfotiamine supports endothelial function by inhibiting inflammatory factors and reducing oxidative stress, which is important for cardiovascular health.

• Energy metabolism and nerve support
  Thiamine and benfotiamine are essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, the production of cellular energy and support for the nervous system.
