BenfoMax is a dietary supplement from Pure Encapsulations delivering benfotiamine (S-benzoylthiamine-O-monophosphate), a fat-soluble vitamin B1 (thiamine) derivative. The benfotiamine used is pure, Japanese-manufactured, and synthetic in origin. The formula is made with high-quality vegan ingredients backed by verifiable science.
Benfotiamine supports the function of several enzymes, including thiamine pyrophosphate and transketolase, which are involved in glucose metabolism and vascular function. It helps maintain healthy advanced glycation end (AGE) product activity to support vascular, nerve, retinal, and kidney cellular health. BenfoMax promotes vascular, retinal, kidney, and neuronal health, and supports optimal thiamine pyrophosphate activity.
In a randomized crossover trial, benfotiamine supported healthy flow-mediated dilation and endothelial function in response to a heat-treated meal containing high levels of glycated proteins. In another randomized controlled study, benfotiamine supported healthy nerve conduction velocity and nerve comfort. Research suggests that benfotiamine may also maintain healthy renal glomeruli and retinal function, protein kinase C enzyme activity, and protein glycation. It may also maintain cytokine balance and support the expression of immune mediators.
The capsule is suitable for ages 18 and up. Hypoallergenic plant fiber is derived from pine cellulose, and ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
