Anyone familiar with this as opposed to thiamine hcl?

Benfotiamine is a dietary supplement that is a derivative of thiamine (also known as vitamin B1), a B vitamin found in a variety of foods including legumes, nuts and seeds, wheat germ, fortified grain products such as bread, cereal, pasta, rice, and flour, and some meat and fish. Since benfotiamine is fat-soluble and appears to have higher bioavailability and absorption by the body than thiamine, some people use it to raise their thiamine levels and manage certain health conditions.
