BENFO-TEAM

Objetivo

The BenfoTeam Study is a multi-site clinical trial evaluating whether Benfotiamine, a form of vitamin B1, can help slow memory decline and support brain health in individuals with early Alzheimer's disease. Benfotiamine is thought to enhance brain energy metabolism and reduce biological changes linked to Alzheimer's, including inflammation and abnormal protein buildup. Early research has shown it to be safe, well-tolerated, and potentially beneficial for cognition and daily function.
