Today we’re going to talk about the most important nutrient for diabetics: vitamin B1. When you consume a lot of sugar, or you’re a diabetic, you could get a severe vitamin B1 deficiency. When you get vitamin B1, make sure it’s fat-soluble vitamin B1 (benfotiamine).
Vitamin B1 is involved in keeping the lining of the blood vessels strong. Without vitamin B1, you could have a problem with your blood vessels. The blood vessels support the nervous system. If you don’t get blood supply to the nerve, it decreases the oxygen to the nervous system causing a range of problems.
A vitamin B1 deficiency can affect the nervous system and the heart first. It can also affect the memory due to a problem with the mammillary bodies in the brain. Vitamin B1 is also involved in making myelin, which is the insulation around the nerve. A deficiency can cause pain in the hands and feet.
Benefits of vitamin B1:
1. It counters damage to the vascular walls that support the nervous system
2. It can help prevent necrosis
3. It can help improve the neurovascular system
4. It can help increase the survival of heart cells
5. It can help prevent cardiac fibrosis
6. It can help prevent diabetic retinopathy and neuropathy

Dr. Berg, what foods contain fat soluble B1? I can't always take a supplement because of allergies. Thank you.
@@EricBergHRV thank you so much for your help. I was eating healthy and exersinig everyday but my blood sugar glucose was 105 I don't know why.
@@healthycooking3376 thank you bro 😎
@@EricBergHRV dr berg can I take both sulbutamine and benfotiamine
once again I am amazed !!!! there are so many diabetics in Greece AND NOBODY SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT B1 !!! thank you so much Dr. Berg !!!!!
Its all about Big Pharma $$$
Too much baklava and kourambiedes in our childhoods! (Greek American speaking here)! 😜
You’re the best doctor we never had. Big thank you for this work!
Hey I have a en experience I'd like to share. I took 2 doses of benfotiamine yesterday and first dose produced higher energy and an almost psychedelic effect where lights became more beautiful and pungent. Second dose towards bedtime, there was a pleasurable electric feeling in the parts of my body I experience neuropathy and sciatica along with relief. Woke up this morning earlier than usual and when I walked to the bathroom I realized I didnt stumble or have the need to drag my legs like I usually do.
What brand?

Dr. I have had type 1 for over 20 years. Thank you for telling me things my endocrinologist we never dream of. You are a good man..
Exactly, but it's because they don't know themselves. My doctor has never breathe a single vitamin I should be taking. He's happy to send me for testing whenever something goes wrong.
It is so true! My father is diabetic type 2 and no one of his endocrinologist doctor have ever mentioned the importance of taking a Vit B1. Thank you doc Berg. Greetings from Albania
NIH research show no improvement in 24 month double blind study....who do listen to? Has someone taken this and seen improvements?
@@yogesnathan5451 nih is hand in hand with big pharma
@@fabiagastra9037 You should look into keto diet which can help reverse the type 2 diabetes for your dad. I think Dr Berg has some videos about this.
Dr. Berg I am new to your channel, but I’ve been educated more by your channel than from my old physician. I thank you for the information. God bless!
Thank you Lord for CZcams and Dr. Berg. Following his advice I have stopped my neuropathy completely!
Dr. Berg and CZcams resolved my medical issues for free when my regular (paid) Internist didn't even know to advise me?
Dr. Berg you are a special and unique individual, I owe a debt of gratitude to you.
Happy for you! Could you please share how long you took this benfotiamine?
@@gegemcjossy1935 Thank you Oge! It was very quick, in about two days I noticed a significant change. In about two weeks the pain completely has disappeared. Best of luck.
That's great! Thanks..
How are you doing? Is tge neuropathy completely resolved?
Dr. Berg you are the great doctor and educator in the CZcams. How thousands and thousands of people learn a lot of things from your wonderful video. Thank you so much Dr. Berg.
I am so thankful to you, Dr Berg! I have been following your suggestions for the past few months and have seen incredible improvement! I'm taking your vitamin D3-K2 20000Iu per day, Gallbladder Formula, Vitamin E, Benfotiamine, Seacod and alpha lipoic acid. My recent blood report shows that I'm back on track and onto the path of reversal... My hba1c used to be in the range of 8.5-13.9 and it's now 6.1. If I ever come to the US, I would love to meet you in person and thank you. I am sharing my experience with everyone I am meeting as I want them to feel better again.

Excellent video! Thanks so much.
Thank you Dr. Berg your information is outstanding.
Thank you Dr.
big help.
Ez to understand. 👍👍👍
OMG dr. Berg you rock for real. it all fits with my symptoms that I have had for so many years from neurological sarcoidosis. when you started talking about myelin sheath I knew you were onto something. thank you very much for your advice on purchasing the fat-soluble version of B1. I'm also going to look into getting B1 intravenous, but who knows what these narrow-minded doctors will say about that. thank you again very much!
I was waiting for a video...and magic! There it is!
Thank you! You are my go-to-guy for all health related matters.
Gord,
Vancouver
As usual, thanks again, Dr Berg! 😉
Thank you from the bottom of my heart! My right knee was so bad I could hardly walk without crying. I saw an ad on Facebook about diabetics needing Thiamine. So....that led my research to you while addressing my diabetes and bad knee. After taking notes I ordered some good Benfotiamine and after 24 hours there was less pain. After 48 hours it was much better yet I still had a sharp pain while stepping on it. I doubled the amount I was taking and its almost normal now. Because I'm overweight I know my thighs can only handle so much walking, but at least I can now start walking to lose this weight. Thank you so much!
Stacy, I'm so glad to hear you found something that worked for you! I'm also dealing with a painful knee. Which Benfotiamine did you buy?
Enlightened greatly on diabetes. Had no idea about the importance of B1 in diabetes. Thanks.
Thank you so much Dr Berg. I have learned so much from your videos! 🙏🙏🙏
Nice lighting on the set for this video!
Thanks Dr Berg, you've been so helpful.Without your information I would never get this information. I have diabetes. I've learned a new way of living. Thanks, Hugs!

Thank you Dr.Berg!
Great info, Dr. Berg! Thank you so much! Love your videos....I'm learning so much! Just started taking the nutritional yeast by Sari foods you recommend. Does it include enough B1? How much of the yeast would I have to take on a daily basis? Thank you!
DOC . . . YOU ~ ROCK ! ! 🤛
Thanks a million Dr Berg
THANK YOU DR BERG
May God bless you and your family. Thanks Dr you are the best.
This would be important for anyone with macular degeneration varicose veins, spider veins, nervous system disorders, nerve pain, etc. I bet it would have far reaching ramifications to so many illnesses. Neurological disorders. Wow. So many people this could help. I’m taking mine right now 😁. I’ve also found help from butchers broom as a vein tonic for those with leg vein pain. Hugs to all. Thanks Dr Berg.
I don t think I am diabetic , but I have a problèm with inflammation in the brain...
3 days now that I take benfotiamine, 750 mg/day... Inflammation is still here, but my dreams became wild!
It s like my brain is detoxifing all kind of traumatic expériences / emotions...
Inconfortable but very healing...something is happening !
Thanks dr Berg ❤
Thank you for the links!!!!!!
🙏🏾 Just a complete God send ✨
Thank you for caring Sooo much DrBerg 🧐💕🙏🏾✊🏽
I'm glad you're so appreciative!
This is very interesting. I've just been diagnosed with Diabetes II and will be seeing a care team tomorrow. I will definitely take all this info to heart as I go in there tomorrow. I have been trying to change old habits; but it's hard. I hope if I keep watching these videos this will help to reverse the brainwashing that I feel like I've had growing up on food...like Pepsi, McDonalds, eating out a lot, and all these things now I'm realizing how bad all this stuff is for you. For my daughter, I've already changed how she eats vs. when I was her age so she will fair better when she gets older. I've listened and what you say makes sense. I feel like I've been blind all these years thinking this stuff isn't that bad for you and now I see the damage it can cause.
Hi Kim. How are you doing?
I stopped at this video just to mention that TUDCA you said was your favorite, really helped me eliminate and that’s awesome, 74 years old and getting better all the time.
your amazing. Thank you and bless you :)
Wow, Dr. Berg, this is excellent information. Your videos have helped change my life. I am sure this benfortiamine will be GREAT! Thank you.
Are you using the benfotiamine.
Dr.Berg you saved my life.
Thank thank you Doctor. God bless you always
Dr Berg is great very well explained 👏
Hey thanks! Appreciate that.
Awesome info -THANK YOU DOCTIR BERG!
Man....thank you!!!
A video for a layman.......nicely explained with superb narration
Dear Dr. Berg, you are helping us to turn our body to default setting other word factory setting. I believe God is very happy with you.
De berg you are amazing as always. Can you please explain briefly how to take benfotamine . All four tablets at the same time?
You are truly the best Dr. Berg ❤ thank you
Thank you very much for your comment. Appreciate it!
Dr. I didn't know U have a spanish translation programa! Great, for my husband, since he has diabetes
The info on B-vitamin deficiency changed my life, and quite possibly saved it. Thank you and other med professionals here on CZcams for this information!! Sent from the heavens, no doubt!!
What brand b1 are you taking?
@@benpowell3782 Right now, I take Nutricost B1 500 mg.
Big difference?
the neuropathy in my feet rapidly progressed in 2 years, despite taking water soluble super B-complex for years even before the onset of foot neuropathy.
One week after taking 300mg x2 a day of benfotiamine i can already feel improvemente. The pins and needles in my feet are worst while im laying down and progressed to intolerable levels a week ago. Now its just a tingle as i wiggle my toes while im laying down, that doesn't even come to mind.
Ty doctor.
Got the points 👏
Thanks brother :)
Pain in feet are gone since I started B1 and I use B1 that has no magnesium stearate from Swansons Vitamins
Marilyn H. Irick what brand vitamin b1 did you buy and where can I buy this... I have type 2 diabetes that I control with diet and exercise.
Why did you say it has no magnesium separate ?
Hon Wong I only use NutraBio B1 about 1500 per day or more. Keeps the pain gone. Seemed to repair my nerve damage because since moving, have taken little and still no more nerve pain.
Me too!
I Love Swansonvitamins !!!
Thank you so much. You're the best
Thanks for your continued support!
I have to avoid sugar. We do not get along. Great video, thanks Doc.
Not sure if you have, but you should do a video on Berberine.
He’s the TRUTH!!!
I did have a severe case of neuropathy, for diabetes 2 the main thing to repair nerves is to get your blood sugars in the normal range, B12 in the form of methylcobalamin , it takes a long time to repair damaged nerves but it is possible.
aussie4ever
How about dosage??
I have a a pretty bad case...
Thank you
I would take b12 methyl' 5 mg daily on a empty stomach for about a month then go onto 1mg daily, r- lipoic acid also helps take what ever the manufacturer recommends, when the nerves are repairing it is hard to tell the difference of a flare up in symptoms or healing of nerves, over time the healing is less severe and not as often, the normal blood sugars is the key to success , it took me about 3 years to heal properly. hope this helps.. good luck.
@@oldfart69685 milligrams? But they come in mcg's dont they? Is 2,500mcgs 2.5 mgs?
@@vlsr71 yes correct.. 1 MG = 1000 mcg
@@oldfart6968 im also learning that you need to Increase your water intake so as not to harm your kidneys with high dose B-12.
thx for this info Doc what do you think about berberine which one is better
Wow! Thanks
You are truly amazing I have lost 11kg since I've followed you I've done every diet known to man and yours works thankyou ❤
which diet what that?
What kind of diet ru on?
Thank you
Thanks 4 all your videos.
.. will you do an updated video on Berberine, Benfotiamine and Alpha Lipoic Acid (water and fat solubles).. what the difference, thoughts and recommendations are?.. thanks!..
Metformin will inhibit B1 absorption.
Benfotiamine is very effective for peripheral neuropathy.
I love learning about new vitamins and their benefits! B1 is a great fat soluble vitamin! I need to keep that tops on my list! ~~~Nancy
Please more videos about leaky gut 😭
Is this style of Benfotiamine ok, Benfotiamine (S-benzoylthiamine-O-monophosphate)? I am having a devil of a time finding 600mg pills.
You need to buy the 150 or 300 mg and take multiples.
Dr. Berg will vitamin B1 help with peripheral neuropathy precipitated by specific medical treatments such as chemotherapy?
I've just discovered this particular vitamin B1, Benfotiamine... from watching/listening to Dr. Berg... the past 2 years I've begun to suffer tingling and numbness with one of my toes, next my annual blood test revealed that I'm pre-diabetic.. I didn't put two and two together until I began to research and found this particular video explaining. Thanks Dr. Berg.
Wallace how you are doing
Dear trusted snd respected Doctor
Thank you , you have touched on this vitamin subject before , this particular video hit me ! I am now taking b1 nightly and my neuropathy has gone down it is actually gone and my pinky is stopping to get that tiny hot pinch in it Thank you fit going into how , and where in the body b1 helps and is needed , the eyes and heart hit me because I was misdiagnosed with my eyes and my heart when actually my Diabetic condition which was under severe stressful conditions of several deaths and a grandchild with Cancer I want tell you how helpful you are my deepest gratitude to you and your helpmate wife Thank you for your diligence in helping us who use your videos and products
Which brand you used for benfotiamine and which other supplements u recommend for diabetic
which brand please ?
nice video just 2 little questions : how do the make benfotiamine (from what)? and also can pregnant women take it safely ?
You saved my life
You are a saviour Dr Berg ❤️
Thanks for your wonderful comment.
Good morning Dr Berg, really important information here for people with diabetes. What about the issue of toxicity given that it is a fat soluble form of B1?
all grass fed or pasture raised is NOT toxic so choose your foods wisely.
fat soluble source come from...
beef liver
pork
fish
eggs
chicken liver
Òùr great Ďr Berģ, Vit B1 is water soluble vitamin. Stay blessed.
Dr Eric Berg can you make video for eye floaters
Fine....czcams.com/video/nxqQBpplcgw/video.html
Look up DMSO.
Dr. Berg, dont leave us hanging here. How do we find a good source for the B1 your talking about. That should be one of the most important links under the video.
Do a quick search for Benfotiamine on amazon to get some - I don't have any specific brand
can you use nutritional yeast instead?
Now we know what to look for, just google, foods with b1, there are plenty, before keto i was binge eating sunflower seeds which are loaded with b1, pumpkin seeds, macadamia nut, salmon, herring and much more. :)
Benfogamma or milgamma protect
ugetridofit
$20.77
300mg Benfotiamine
90 capsules @ Piping Rock website.
There's less mg too available.
I use this US website and I'm in Australia.
Highly recommend them.
I get my Berberine from them too. Very inexpensive.
Dr Berg, does Benotiamine sometimes cause hair loss and should it be taken with Alpha Lipoic Acid or not ? It just sounds wonderful and being a T1 Diabetic I’ve noticed a lot of hair loss over the past five years. Can you please help me with this query as my blood sugars are notoriously brittle no matter how carefully I watch and check them. I’m feeling desperate here to be honest. Thank you most sincerely. 🙏
Respect dr Berg from India 🙏
Thanks for following!
Dr. Berg I really enjoy your videos and you have a lot of information and obviously common sense to go with it, I am a 65 year old type 2 diabetic and I am wondering if you recommend a multivitamin, would appreciate any feedback on it, God bless
ancestral supplement LIVER
Dr Berg, thanks for the information. I am pre diabetic with HbA1c around 6.1 for last 6 years and on low carb diet with intermittent fasting. I want to start vitamin B1 but in another Video you have recommended that one should avoid synthetic vitamins. So should I take Nutritional yeast and sunflower seeds for B1 or should I take fat soluble benfotiamine capsules. Please advise. Chanda
I think he would recommend all three, but he's been emphasizing benfotiamine, as it is fat soluble and gives you a much higher dose of B1.
Vitamin B1 also help in erectile dysfunction in diabetics?
I would love to see a video about Intermittent Fasting after Bariatic surgery...I had Gastric Sleeve in 2015...struggling with some regain...but can't eat large meals...what do I do? Thank you!
I’d like to order this product~ I looked into Amazon ; too many to choose from. I couldn’t decide help!!
Where can you buy Benfotiamine 600mg capsules? I only find the lower doses online and in stores near me.
Dr. Berg, in the links it mentiones the THYMEN - Which is very common in almost every B1 package i found, while you said use the Benfotiamine form, so which is which? Thank you
i would like to add is chromium and vanadium is very good remedy for diabetes.
