Description
Benfotiamine is a natural form of thiamin (vitamin B1) that was developed to efficiently penetrate through cellular membranes. Benfotiamine metabolizes carbohydrates so they cannot go on to contribute to the formation harmful end-products.
AOR’s Benfotiamine is one of the few products to contain this active form of B1 in an evidence-based dose. Did you know that AOR participates in research collaborations at prestigious universities across the world? In fact, AOR has supplied finished capsules of benfotiamine for two clinical trials.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AOR (Advanced Orthomolecular Research) and are its supplements safe in Canada?
AOR, short for Advanced Orthomolecular Research, is a Calgary, Alberta-based supplement brand founded in 1991 by Dr. Traj Nibber, PhD. Built on the orthomolecular medicine principles of Nobel laureate Linus Pauling — the right molecule, in the right dose, at the right place and time — AOR products are manufactured in a cGMP-compliant facility in Alberta and all carry Health Canada Natural Product Numbers (NPN). Raw materials are independently tested in ISO-certified laboratories for purity, potency, and safety. Products are commonly recommended by naturopathic doctors and integrative healthcare practitioners across Canada.
What makes AOR different from other supplement brands?
AOR's real distinction is its orthomolecular research model: rather than formulating to meet basic RDAs, AOR targets functional, clinically studied dosing levels — and has a track record of introducing compounds to the Canadian market before they became mainstream, including D-ribose, R-lipoic acid, and strontium citrate. AOR also consistently chooses bioavailable ingredient forms over cheaper alternatives: methylated B vitamins (methylcobalamin, L-5-MTHF) instead of cyanocobalamin; chelated magnesium bisglycinate instead of magnesium oxide. This research-first approach, developed in close collaboration with naturopathic doctors, is what separates AOR from brands that replicate popular formulas at lower cost.
