| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr. |
| 0:07.7 | Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. |
| 0:19.4 | Today, we're going to talk about a nutrient called benfotamine, and this is a synthetic |
| 0:27.6 | B1. B1 is naturally water-cibel. This is a fat-cibel B1, and yes, it is made synthetically, |
| 0:38.6 | but this is one of the only synthetic vitamins that I would recommend because it has virtually |
| 0:42.8 | no side effects. And I believe every single diabetic should be taking benfotamine, and here's |
| 0:48.7 | why. Because vitamin B1 is intimately involved in the little mini-engine in your mitochondria |
| 0:56.3 | that involves the glucose metabolism. And the more glucose that you have running through |
| 1:01.5 | that machine, the higher the blood sugar, the more depleted of B1 you're going to become. |
| 1:08.7 | And with diabetics, there's four main tissues that are involved. The nerves in brain, the eyes, |
| 1:16.0 | the kidney, and the heart vessels. And it just so happens that benfotamine can help you with each |
| 1:22.3 | one of them. Now, because benfotamine is fat-cibel, it can penetrate three to five times deeper into |
| 1:29.3 | the nerves in your brain, and it can really create some really cool effects. Its main function is |
| 1:35.7 | it protects against oxidation. And this is really the problem with diabetes. You have so much |
| 1:43.4 | glucose involved that the amount of oxidation is so high, you're getting all sorts of free radical |
| 1:48.2 | damage, you're getting complications, all the tissues start breaking down, simply because of the |
| 1:53.6 | oxidation of glucose. Well, any type of B1 will counter that, but benfotamine goes a little bit deeper. |
| 1:59.7 | Benfotamine will also reduce advanced glycation end products. Now, what is that? When you combine |
| 2:07.9 | glucose with the protein, or glucose with the fat, under heat, you start creating these sticky |
| 2:15.1 | proteins. Now, your body can make these, or you can consume them in certain foods. So, if you |
| 2:20.5 | took like barbecue ribs, for example, where they are cooking this sugar with meat, or even ice cream, |
| 2:27.4 | where you have a lot of sugar, you have the milk protein, and fat all cooked up. That's going to |
