Mrs.D, On medscape they say benfothiamine does not raise brain thiamine levels... (cannot post url but you can google it)

So maybe benfothiamine may not replace thiamine...

The question is what to do if you take ALA and diet is not very rich in thiamine (which is known to be mostly in whole grains - high carbs)...
