Product details

Contains 200mg Sulbutiamine per capsule.

Sulbutiamine is a fat-soluble derivative of thiamine. It is considered an energy booster and is used to reduce fatigue. It also stimulates gut activity, improves muscle weakness, boosts memory, and may protect the brain.

How Does Sulbutiamine Work?

  • Increases thiamine (and thiamine derivative) levels more than thiamine itself.
  • Increases dopamine (D1) and glutamate activity in decision-making regions of the brain (such as the prefrontal cortex).
  • Boosts attention and mood (by changing how glutamate acts on dopamine).
  • Reduces cell death in the brain (by increasing glutathione).
  • Increases energy use in the brain (by increasing thiamine triphosphate).
  • Improves memory formation (by increasing activity in the hippocampus).

Benefits

  • Boosts Energy
    In a study of 1,772 patients with infections and chronic fatigue, sulbutiamine (200 mg twice a day) for two weeks (along with anti-infective treatment) helped with low energy. Fifty-two per cent of the patients felt a significant boost in mood and energy.
    326 patients with chronic fatigue (post-infection) were treated with sulbutiamine and a placebo. Some individuals felt an energy boost from sulbutiamine, but the results were not significant.
    Sulbutiamine boosted energy in 341 patients (observational study) with chronic fatigue diagnosed as asthenia (measured with a 44% decrease in their Fatigue Intensity Scores).
    Additionally, sulbutiamine treatment (400 mg daily for 1 month) greatly improved symptoms of severe depression, anxiety, and fatigue in most patients (75%) in a study of 40 participants (open-label).
    36 patients with chronic fatigue (caused by brain damage) were treated with either piracetam or sulbutiamine. Sulbutiamine was a more effective treatment than piracetam.

  • May Improve Memory
    Sulbutiamine (when used with donepezil) improved memory in a study of 26 patients with Alzheimer’s Disease.
    Sulbutiamine improved long-term memory in rats. This is a result of boosting neurotransmitters (such as choline), which may increase memory retention in humans too.

  • May Protect Nerves
    Nerve damage can be caused by high blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes. A 6-week treatment of sulbutiamine (400 mg daily) in 15 patients with diabetes significantly improved nerve and muscle function.

  • May Improve Sexual Performance
    Sulbutiamine treatment for 30 days restored sexual performance in 16 patients out of 20 with erectile dysfunction (caused by psychological issues).
  • May Improve Symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis
    Fatigue is a major symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS). Sulbutiamine treatment (400 mg daily) for 2 months significantly improved energy levels of 20 MS patients.
    An 8-week study evaluated the effectiveness of sulbutiamine in the treatment of fatigue in MS. Daily 600 mg doses improved fatigue in patients with fatigue who were on MS drugs.

  • May Improve Digestion
    Some of the first studies on sulbutiamine proved it can help with digestion. In a study with 33 patients (RCT), sulbutiamine restored digestion after kidney surgery in 21 patients. Sulbutiamine also greatly improved gut flow in tissue studies.

  • May Protect the Brain
    Nutrient-deprived brain cells treated with sulbutiamine lived much longer than cells that weren’t treated.
    Additionally, sulbutiamine improved the lifespan of brain cells that were deprived of oxygen and sugar. It also increased activity in the memory-forming part of the brain (hippocampus).

  • May Be an Antioxidant
    Sulbutiamine treatment increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes (GSH) in cells and decreased levels of harmful compounds (ROS).

  • May Prevent Tissue Damage
    A lack of oxygen in tissues may eventually lead to tissue damage (caused by reperfusion). Sulbutiamine protected brain cells from any damage after a period of oxygen deficiency.

Directions

Take 1-2 capsules as needed or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

Caution

It's worth noting that while sulbutiamine is generally considered safe, it can interact with certain medications and may cause side effects in some individuals. It's important to talk to your healthcare provider before taking any new supplements or making any changes to your health regimen.
