Hi Ms. Arielle!
DH and I are both on Benfotiamine, a well-absorbed form which is fat-soluble and gets where it needs to go. Since my experience with high doses of niacin have been so positive, I take double the dose on the bottle.
As a nod to the rule which says "You need ALL your Bs" I take a good quality B complex, too. Along with a high protein, low oxalate diet, I'm seeing real improvement from him. His dizzy spells, which makes him use a cane, has improved. He's lost a lot of weight and weaning off his blood pressure meds.
We both have stellar A1C scores, which is first and foremost about metabolism. He's dealing with a Long Viral Syndrome and I'm trying to get out of Burnout, but our routines mostly intersect.
We're not THAT low carb because I don't think our metabolism is up for it. They need the cheap energy of certain selected carbs. Still seems to be working.
