Benfotiamine is oil based so it doesn't go thru the digestive tract .. it goes thru the liver and directly into the bloodstream. This circumvents the possible absorption problems of thiamine pills, which pass thru the digestive tract.

Therefore I think this is a good approach to try. There are a lot of new theories about digestive bacteria causing nutrient shortages with PD. There is so much we do not really know about gut bacteria.

Has anyone ever tried B2 supplementation? I read of a study where they dosed 100 mg every 6 hrs for 3 months and tremors were dramatically reduced and most importantly .. the results stuck.
