This is my first ever order from Iherb, and I am so happy. It was so fast and instant that I couldn't believe. I know that benfotiamine is the supplement every house should have. This one is so good, I can feel the difference after just two days of using 600mg a day. I wanted to order bigger ones like 300 mg capsule but it was out of stock. I hope that it will be available soon, because this supplement changed my life for sure. Don't hesitate to order one because benforiamine is the one and only not natural supplement that every house should have . I don't feel anxious anymore, I don't feel pain in my stomach, and I can sleep better after just two days. A lot of people are deficient in vitamin b1, and benfotiamine is the best liposomal supplement to take. I feel more energy , the package is big and cheap and the effect is so great. My nervous system is at better shape right now.
This is a good value for money. This combination of B1 forms is a great energy booster, but beware that according to latest research benfotiamine is recognized as a strong OXIDANT, which is logical. Make sure you compensate with anti-oxidants when taking it. Your "thank you" will be appreciated
Been using this high dose, fat soluble form of Thiamine (B1) for only a week or so with so many positive effects ALREADY. Like most middle aged people, I have a a few areas of tissue damage/inflammation and they have ALL experienced noticeable improvement since taking these Benfotiamine capsules (now taking 3 caps per day or 300mg) Firstly, brain health has improved noticeably (less anxiety, more calmness), better skin health (less redness), even my knee joint can tolerate way more high intensity, running-related stress without getting sore and swollen! Even better, I have noticeably more energy and need 30 mins less sleep, which I did not expect. Waking up with way more vitality, and a much calmer, happy disposition I never knew that eating a western diet, even what I thought was a healthier version, could STILL lead to a deep, intracellular thiamine (B1) deficiency, which was slowly ageing my nervous system, metabolism of food in to cellular energy, joint function and even skin health. These Benfotiamine capsules are neutral to taste, great quality, high potency with no side effects (I checked the research to assess safety of high doses, like 300-500mg per day, or even higher for serious diseases) and easy to consume alongside my meals. I take these with a broad spectrum, activated B complex capsule to make sure not to become deficient in the other vital B vitamins (as per the research) I never knew how critical Thiamine (B1) was for so many vital aspects of human health. I can Highly recommend these capsules for ANYONE, especially anyone who consumes ANY processed foods, especially those that contain acellular carbohydrates like flour/sugar...and that includes ANY bread, pasta, biscuits, cakes, chips or ANY food that body needs to turn in to energy. Without regular consumption of extra supplemental Thiamine, then you are almost certainly deficient, and I mean way beyond the dietary requirements as recommended by dieticians. Even eliminating ALL those processed foods may still leave you with an intracellular Thiamine deficiency that makes it very difficult to convert food in to energy plus make far less internally produced metabolic toxins from your food...
I'm happy to report this B1 supp does what it's designed to do. I've been balancing my supp & food intake and it was important to this vitamin after a period of bouncing in and out of keto while traveling. I used B1 as part of a plan to keep my blood sugar from erratic spikes with ACV, and green tea extract. Great quality B1 - I was told this was the only combo of ingredients to use - benfotiamine w/ thiamine.
I bought this supplement for my cirhottic father, because the liver needs B vitamins and the body can not get anymore from food. Thiamine helps with the brain, provide support for the stress and it gives him more enery. It is a high quality supplement, ingredients are good and the packaging is optimal.
Typical Life-Extension excellence. Benfotiamine, a type of Vit B1, is good for the kidneys and for nerve-support, which may be lacking if you are diabetic. Urine smells like after eating asparagus, which latter has the same effect. But you cannot eat asparagus every day throughout the year! So I take this three timnes a day, and another type with slow release at bedtime, to cover the night as well. The effect is noticeable in my case. So I plan to continue to take this every day (and night).
Helps with pain. Benfotiamine is anti-inflammatory and is recommended for people with nerve damage/pain like peripheral neuopathy. I also know they give to alcoholics going through withdrawal so I would consider it an all around nervous system... soother? helper? Whatever. I notice a difference in pain and anxiety when I take it.
This form of thiamine has good absorption, it is an enzyme which is needed as cofactor in many processes in our biochemistry. It can help decrease Lactic acid so good for energy levels, i might help reverse chronic inflamation and support nervous system. Good quality product i had better mood less pain.
I love the idea of benfotiamine. I believe I was getting insulin resistant with bad sugar habits (have ADHD), so it has hopefully helped with that. I like taking Bs for my brain since my career depends on thinking. So even after recovering from illness and likely insulin resistance, I still take this 3x/week today.
needed these to recover from antibiotic injury that depleted my vitamin b1 levels,the ingredient effect worked within a week ,gave me energy during my niacin flush.really good quality ,well packaged size product,no taste,helped bring back the nervous system under control,good potency,and metabolism feels better, didn't need it for folic acid levels
