FAQs
Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble derivative of vitamin B1 (thiamine). The body converts it into thiamine, which supports carbohydrate metabolism, cellular energy production and normal nervous system function.
Regular thiamine is water-soluble, whereas benfotiamine is fat-soluble. Benfotiamine provides greater systemic thiamine availability than conventional thiamine hydrochloride and supports thiamine-dependent metabolic pathways.
AGEs are compounds formed when sugars react with proteins or fats through a process called glycation. They can accumulate in tissues over time, particularly when blood glucose levels remain elevated. Benfotiamine supports metabolic pathways that help limit AGE formation.
Benfotiamine activates transketolase and supports metabolic pathways that help regulate processes associated with oxidative stress. This contributes to the body’s cellular defence mechanisms.
People with diabetes should consult their healthcare professional before taking Mega Benfotiamine. It may provide nutritional support for glucose metabolism, but it does not replace prescribed medication, blood glucose monitoring or other diabetes management measures.
