What is Sulbutiamine?
Sulbutiamine is a synthetic molecule which consists of two Thiamine (Vitamin B1) molecules bound together by a sulfur group, and appears to be helpful in alleviating fatigue; especially that associated with infection. After it was discovered in Japan in 1965, researchers began to study thiamine and its derivatives more and discovered several benefits.
The main benefits of Sulbutiamine are:
- Increased focus
- Improved memory
- Neuroprotection
- Reduced social inhibitions
- Helps with fatigue
Sulbutiamine stacks well with Caffeine and ‘-Racetams’. For this reason, it could be a good component for a fitness stack.
