I agree..
Thiamine (and benfotiamine) help with carb metabolism.
Other metabolic enhancers to help are chromium and
r-lipoic acid. I'd try those as well.
I use 400mcg of chromium picolinate and 100mg of r-lipoic acid daily.
Benfotiamine stays in the body longer than regular thiamine.
Over time, it is stored in the fat. You may be able to reduce your dose with time. But there is a condition called vitamin dependence, which occurs in some people. High doses of anything, even Vit C can cause this. So that really high doses tend to make the body dependent on them, so withdrawal may cause a deficiency state.
There is another insulin resistance treatment called
d-chiro inositol. I am considering it now.But it is pretty expensive, around $75 a month.
