  • I get more information online from medical doctors; than I ever did by "chatting" for 2 minutes with my Primary Care Doc. The current medical system is obsolete when it comes to nutrition and metabolism. I always end up educating my poorly informed doctor about current studies.
  • You are just what I needed 💕🙏 I'm 75 and my hands are on fire.

    Every time I "talk to a doctor" they want to push a a new prescription medication on me. Doctors have my diabetic mother on 11 different prescription medicines. And she still feels awful. I'm not letting them do that to me. I'll take my chances with exercise, diet, nutrition and supplements.
  • Omg! Talk to your doctor, over and over. If I wanted or could talk to my doctor I wouldn't be watching you!
  • 4.3.2024 --- I was diagnosed with PN in 2016. It is really terrible. I feel the most pain when I go to bed. Sleeping with socks on helps alot. I'm on a lot of gabapentin. and just added amitriptyline. Which still isnt' helping. By Living is the suburbs and not doing a lot of walking I didn't know how bad it was until I went on a trip to Europe. The guide asked could we all walk about 20 minutes and we said yes. Well almost 3/4 into the walk the pain in my feet was unbearable. I was holding up the tour. Fast forward to a cruise. I rented a scooter and that was the best thing ever. -- My cousin just told me about ALA yesterday and here it is in your video. She said it helped her alot. 10:31 She also said to take it with B complex. I'm going to try it.

    I'm using R-Alpha Lipoic Acid and Curcumin for my burning feet. They've really helped cut down on pain meds.
  • I want to thank you for taking the time to make this video. I’ve been battling/ researching idiopathic PN in my toes for little over a year and a half now and this is the best information I’ve seen to date…. I’ve been trying the 600 mg of ALA for the last 6 months and I think it is has slowly reduced the severity of the burning sensation… its hard to say for sure because my symptoms only present if I’m active or I simply let my feet get to warm which means replicating the environmental conditions is difficult to control for… however taking a warm shower isn’t as bad as it once was…plus they seem to recover more quickly now.. but then again I’m now taking 75mg of Lyrica daily which has made a huge improvement in reducing the peak pain levels. I’m going to look into those supplements and boost my fish intake as well. If you ever have the time, I love to see a video explaining the connection between PN and hyperthyroidism…I see it often listed as a cause but I don’t understand the connection and most of the doctors I’ve spoken to seem to think there’s a connection in my situation…
  • Love this video,i have burning sensation ,striking shocking like pain also severe pain unable to walk after sitting for a long time,this started approximately 2mths ago.
  • Talking to your doctor is a waste of time as they don’t have a clue about supplementation
  • @lauralong6695
    Your information isa blessing. Thank you so very much. Before watching this, I started taking omega 3 in the form of flax seed oil. I’m already showing much improvement in my pain control. I am going to start your supplement recommendation immediately.
  • @LoozyAnnaLady
    Been on these supplements 1 month and seeing some improvement in pain in feet. Suffered for 5 years with neuropathy. B12 is also necessary and avoiding sugar to repair myelin. IMHO
  • Thank you so much very informative! Is there any vitamins to prevent hands from shaking?
  • I know you HAVE to say that ('Talk to your Dr'), but we all know 95% of Dr's don't know didley about any of these supplements...they can probably get in trouble for even mentioning them.
