today we’re going to talk about a

nutrient called benfotiamine and this is

a synthetic b1 b1 is naturally water

Seibel this is a fat-soluble b1 and yes

it is made synthetically but this is one

of the only synthetic vitamins that I

would recommend because it has virtually

no side effects and I believe every

single diabetic should be taking

benfotiamine and here’s why because

vitamin b1 is intimately involved in the

little mini engine in your mitochondria

that involves the glucose metabolism and

the more glucose that you have running

through that machine the higher the

blood sugar the more depleted of b1

you’re going to become and with

diabetics there’s four main tissues that

are involved the nerves and brain the

eyes the kidney and the heart vessels

and it just so happens that benfotiamine

can help you with each one of them now

because benfotiamine is fat soluble it

can penetrate 3 to 5 times deeper into

the nerves in your brain and it can

really create some really cool effects

its main function is it protects against

oxidation and this is really that the

problem with diabetes you have so much

glucose involved that the amount of

oxidation is so high you’re getting all

sorts of free radical damage you’re

getting complications all the tissues

start breaking down simply because of

the oxidation of glucose well any type

of b1 will counter that but benfotiamine

goes a little bit deeper benfotiamine

will also reduce advanced glycation

end-products now what is that when you

combine glucose with the protein or

glucose with the fat under heat you

start creating these these sticky

proteins now your body can make these or

you can consume them in certain foods so

if you took like barbecued ribs for

example where they are cooking this

sugar with meat or even ice cream where

you have a lot of sugar you have the

milk protein and fat all cooked up

that’s going to give you a lot of these

and this will basically

add more oxidation accelerate the aging

process create a lot of sticky proteins

that get stuck in your arteries your

brain your eyes and it creates a lot of

other issues benfotiamine can also

decrease your a1c as well now the main

way that I used it when I was in

practice is for peripheral neuropathy

and that’s a condition where you have a

breakdown the nervous system in your

feet or your fingertips so you might

have pain in your feet or numbness or

burning pain making you difficult to

walk this stuff works like magic you’d

want to take at least 600 milligrams per

day and you can spread it out I don’t

have any specific benfotiamine to

recommend you’re gonna have to do your

own research to find something that

maybe has some good reviews but if

you’re a diabetic and you have feet pain

this will work like magic so it’s really

good for restoring nerve function it’s

good for pain it’s good for any type of

neuropathies and it’s also good to

protect the brain against diabetic

complications because a lot of times a

diabetic will have dementia to have

memory loss I mean type 3 diabetes is

Alzheimer’s so it can actually help that

condition greatly now as far as the eyes

go there’s a lot of secondary

complications from diabetes concerning

the eye and one is damage to the retina

well guess what the retina is all nerve

tissue so benfotiamine is really good

for the retina to protect against damage

it’s also good to protect against the

kidney cell called a nephron so if

someone has kidney damage let’s say they

have stage three or four even five this

is something I would highly recommend

then we have the heart in the heart

vessels there’s a certain layer on the

inside of the artery called the

epithelial layer and the microvascular

the tiny little blood vessels that

innervate that can be protected when you

take benefit Amin in fact if you’re

deficient in B one of Miss important

antioxidant and you can develop damage

dysfunction and then guess what

cholesterol builds up

calcium builds up and you start getting

plaque in the arteries so benfotiamine

is very very important in cardiovascular

function and act to protect the arteries

and of course I’m assuming that you’re a

regular viewer because if you’re not I’m

also gonna recommend healthy keto okay

and in a minute fasting as the basic

diet that you need to do in addition to

this because if you’re doing this

without correcting the diet it might not

work as well I put a link down below
