Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that’s caused by damage to the peripheral nervous system. When nerve cells become damaged, you may experience pain, discomfort, and a tingling or burning sensation in the affected body part.
Neuropathy commonly occurs with type 2 diabetes. Too much glucose in the blood (as is apparent in people with type 2 diabetes) over time damages blood vessels. Damage to the blood vessels inhibits the amount of nutrients that can reach the nerve cells, leading to nerve cell damage or disintegration.
Benfotiamine is the synthetic version of vitamin B1. It’s lipid soluble and is absorbed up to 3.6 times more than water soluble B1. Benfotiamine has a higher bioavailability than vitamin B1, which means it can penetrate the nerve cells more easily.
The lipid soluble vitamin can help prevent macro– and microvascular endothelial dysfunction (a type of coronary artery disease) in subjects with diabetes. It’s also been shown to significantly improve neuropathy scores, reduce nerve pain, and increase nerve conduction velocity. Additionally, it can reduce inflammation and may be beneficial in preventing diabetic neuropathy.
Results from taking benfotiamine can appear within 3 weeks to 6 weeks taking a dosage of 600 mg per day. For treating diabetic neuropathy, the recommended dose is 150-300 mg twice daily.
Neurazenx is a nerve pain relief supplement that contains 20 natural, effective ingredients including 200 mg of benfotiamine per serving. Neurazenx is formulated by clinical physicians who chose each ingredient for their science backed benefits in reducing symptoms of neuropathy.
It includes key supplements, such as alpha lipoic acid, which clinical studies have shown to greatly reduce neuropathic pain after just 3 weeks. Neurazenx should be taken regularly as a daily multivitamin for up to three months for best results with neuropathic pain.
