Info: 120 Veg. Capsules (80 mg each)
Benfotiamine is a natural form of thiamin, more commonly known as vitamin B1. Thiamin may prevent sugar products from damaging proteins which leads to the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), by blocking the final step of that process. It's also widely heralded as a means of protecting against nerve damage due to diabetes.
