About This Product
Natural Factors BioCoenzymated Benfotiamine B1 plus Sulbutiamine combines two fat-soluble forms of vitamin B1 in one vegetarian capsule. Provides benfotiamine, a superior source of thiamine compared to thiamine hydrochloride as it provides a higher bioavailability of thiamine. Each bottle holds 60 capsules.

Two forms of thiamine in one capsule
Thiamine is vitamin B1, one of the water-soluble B vitamins. The common supplement form, thiamine hydrochloride, dissolves in water. The two forms in this capsule are built differently.
Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble derivative of thiamine. Sulbutiamine is two thiamine molecules joined together, also made to be fat-soluble. Each capsule provides 110.3 mg of thiamine from benfotiamine and another 110.3 mg from sulbutiamine.
The rest of the capsule is carbohydrate gum, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, purified water and stearic acid.
How it compares with Natural Factors' benfotiamine
Natural Factors sells BioCoenzymated Benfotiamine 150 mg in a 30-capsule bottle. This formula adds sulbutiamine on top of the benfotiamine and doubles the bottle to 60 capsules. Choose the 150 mg if you want benfotiamine alone. Choose this one if you want both fat-soluble forms of B1 in each capsule.
Natural Factors' BioCoenzymated line also includes Methylcobalamin & Dibencozide B12 and Pantethine B5.
How to take it
Adults take 1 capsule once a day, 1 capsule three times a day, or 2 capsules once a day. Ask a health care practitioner before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, and consult one if symptoms persist or worsen. The full directions are under How to Take.
Who it suits
Adults who want more than a basic B1 and like a dose that can scale from one capsule to three. At 1 capsule a day, the bottle lasts two months.
