That makes sense. Fun fact. If mosquitoes love you, you are deficient in B1. I have diabetes and mosquitoes treat me like I'm their main food source

I use the Country Life brand Benfotiamie. It’s a clean brand and works great!

I wrote a thesis paper about this in high school back in 2007. I was ahead of every one.

What is so annoying about these kinds of post, as true they may be... they never speak about dosage, even less about protocol. Even so, the dosage is never enough, when so. The hard part, is no one really gives you the right information of the amount you should take, not even my MD because he swears only by pharmaceuticals, and despises naturopathy.

Even if you do take that, how do you get your kidneys to stop dumping it?

Doesn’t B1 deficiency also cause Congestive Heart Failure?

I am type 1 & have been taking the benfotiamine from your suggestion. It helps with so many things! The only negative is when I pee the entire bathroom smells like a vitamin 😬

It’s crazy how simple they treat certain conditions overseas while we have to claw just to get bloodwork that’ll tell us what we need 😩

Wow and people in the US have the most expensive healthcare of the world and still they don't take care of the vitamin B complex nor about the vitamin D? Twice a year my doctor sends me test to keep track of hormonal or any type of deficiencies. 😲🇨🇷🫶
