Life Extension, Mega Benfotiamine, 250 mg, 120 Vegetable 240 Count (2x120)

Description ----------- * For Longer Life * & Water Soluble B1 * Dietary Supplement Benfotiamine is the soluble form of B1 clinically tested to offer protection against advanced glycation end products, typically associated with blood glucose irregularities. Mega Benfotiamine Benfotiamine, a -soluble form of B1 (thiamine), supports y blood sugar sm and helps protect the body’s tissues against advanced glycation end products and oxidative stress.66 For example, the enzyme transketolase is critical to blood sugar sm. Like many enzymes, transketolase requires a co-factor. In this case, it needs assistance from thiamine. Unfortunately, thiamine is water-soluble, which makes it less available to the interior of the cell. Benfotiamine is -soluble and can easily penetrate into the inside of cells. It is also more bioavailable than the water-soluble thiamine. In a landmark study, benfotiamine effectively increased transketolase activity in cell cultures by an astounding 300%, compared to a mere 20% for thiamine. This robust activation was sufficient to block three of the four major c pathways leading to blood vessel damage. Benfotiamine also blocks the activation of the transcription factor known as nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB), which is implicated in numerous inflammatory conditions. Overall, benfotiamine can activate glucose sm and promote y blood glucose levels in those already within normal range. Benfotiamine also helps maintain y endothelial function and supports the of the nerves, kidneys, eyes, blood vessels, and heart.
