Ann,

Aren't you diabetic and working with an open minded doc? Could be ataxia or

neuropathy with menopause.

Been meaning to post here on benfotiamine for diabetes.

http://www.easycart.net/BeyondACenturyInc./B_Vitamins.html

BENFOTIAMINE (S-benzoylthiamine-o-monophosphate) is a lipid form of thiamine,

Vit B1. A natural substance found in trace amounts in roasted garlic, onions,

chives, etc., it prevents the formation of AGEs by glycation, the cross-linking

of proteins by sugars. (Also see *036 carnosine.) Used in Germany and Japan for

over 10 years for nerve conditions including diabetic neuropathy and

retinopathy, benfotiamine is now available as a nutritional supplement in the

USA. It acts like a time-release thiamine with increased ability to get into

brain and muscle cells. Glycation is a major cause of aging, but because high

blood sugar levels increase glycation, diabetics age “fast-forward”.

Benfotiamine is said to block 3 of 4 pathways responsible for diabetic

complications, yet is even safer than regular thiamine. Dose schedules for

antiaging and maintenance range from 100-300mg/day with meals. For info on

specific research and double-blind human studies, web-search “benfotiamine”

Yes, I'm diabetic, and just started working with a D.O. who is a

member of WAPF. I haven't discussed stiffness with him, becasue my

parents told me it was normal at my age! Maybe it's genetic. But my

doctor says it could take up to 5 years for my diabetic symptoms to

heal on NT. The stiffness is already better than it used to be, since

I started being very strict on it two months ago. Perhaps it is

neuropathy. I have a couple of symptoms of neuropathy, which are

getting better on NT. It will probably keep getting better, I hope,

as I continue to eat well. But it's true that diabetes, or Syndrome

X, is essentially the aging process, speeded up!

Thanks for the information on benfotiamine.
