Benfotiamine in a form of thiamine that is both fat soluble
AND water soluble - so that it can get to more of the
places/tissues of your body that can benefit from vitamin B1.
(Or that is my understanding of it, anyway.)

I have been taking it daily for about a month, and it does
seem to somewhat relieve the numbness, tingling and occasional
pain of diabetic type 2 neuropathy in my feet.

Since the topic on this thread was B1 (Thiamine) - I thought I'd add my two cents.

Here is what WebMD says about the stuff -

What Is Benfotiamine?

And here is what The Life Extension Foundation (www.lef.org) says about it in regards to
addressing mental decline -

Benfotiamine intake associated with reduced progression of cognitive decline

I hope someone finds this useful.
