Benfotiamine Powder Pure Natural High Quality Benfotiamine Powder
Product Description
Chemical Properties Lipophilic Characteristics Unlike ordinary water-soluble vitamin B1 (thiamine), benfotiam is highly lipophilic. This allows it to easily penetrate biological membranes such as cell membranes. This property originates from the benzylic and phosphoryl groups in chemical structure, which alter the physical and chemical properties of the molecule, enhancing its solubility and permeability in lipid environments. Stability Benfotine is relatively stable under various environmental conditions. It is more resistant to the acidic environment of gastric acid than ordinary thiamine, making it more stable in the tract, thereby improving its absorption and utilization by the body. Under normal storage conditions, such as cool and dry environments, benfotiamine can maintain its stability for a long time.

Function
Uses and Applications Medical Field Prevention and treatment of diabetic complications: Benfotiamine is primarily used in treatment to prevent and alleviate diabetic complications. The high sugar environment in diabetic patients can lead to a series of metabolic disorders, producing excessive advanced glycation end products (s), which can damage nerves, blood vessels, and other tissues. Benfotiamine can activate transketolase, a key enzyme in the pent phosphate pathway, which can reduce the production of AGEs, thereby preventing and treating diabetic complications such as diabetic neuropathy, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic nephathy. For example, studies have shown that supplementing diabetic patients with benfotiamine can improve nerve conduction velocity and alleviate symptoms of neuropathy such numbness in the hands and feet. Neuroprotection: It also has neuroprotective effects, and in addition to its application in diabetic neuropathy, may have potential therapeutic value for other types of nerve damage or neurodegenerative diseases. For instance, in some experimental models of peripheral nerve injury, benfiamine can promote nerve regeneration and repair and reduce the damage caused by inflammatory reactions to nerves.
Application
In the field of cognition, benfiamine may help improve memory and attention. This could be achieved through various mechanisms such as protecting nerve cells and maintaining normal metabolism of neurotransmitters. Some preliminary studies found that in the elderly, supplementing with benfotiamine can improve symptoms of cognitive impairment to some extent. Healthcare Products Field Nutritional supplements As an efficient form of vitamin B1, benfotiamine can be used as a nutritional supplement. It is a good choice for people who may have absorbing vitamin B1, such as those with gastrointestinal diseases or vegetarians who are at risk of vitamin B1 deficiency. It provides higher bioavailability than ordinary thine, effectively supplementing the body's need for vitamin B1, maintaining normal energy metabolism, and supporting nervous system function. For example, including benfotine in some comprehensive vitamin supplements can enhance the overall nutritional efficacy of the product.
