Yes, we do. There are a couple of things for people with insect bites. While there are conflicting reports within the scientific community regarding whether Vitamin B1 supplements actually repels insects, researchers believe that it works by producing a skin odor that’s not noticeable by humans, but that biting bugs greatly dislike (Pediatric Clinics of North America, 16:191, 1969).
If taking a B1 supplement, the recommended dosage is 25 to 50mg three times a day, though it takes roughly two weeks for the vitamin to build up in your system and start keeping bugs at bay. If a person has allergic reactions to insect bites, we would recommend using Xanthium Relieve Surface and TAMU Oil. One thing about TAMU Oil is if you do have sensitive skin, please dilute it with another oil such as safflower oil or olive oil.
