I have it all covered and many blood tests twice a year with the Dzugan Program.

The nerves use a lot of energy and are damaged easily by toxins so that is one reason ALA works so well. Takes the toxins out.

The best supplements for the nerves in my feet and POTS (Dysautonomia) have been ALA MAXcr by Xymogen, and Benfotiamine. A better fat and water soluble B1. I have done great with them. I had the A1c, fasting blood sugar tests etc. All was perfect at all times. But, since the Alpha Lipoic Acid and Benfotiamine have done so well for me, the doctor knew sugar/insulin was part of my problem.

I eat fruit of course, but no added sugar for the most part. I have been gluten free for a year and a half for the POTS.

My many supplements have done amazing things for my CFS etc.

Try the Benfotiamine. I use the Life Extention brand on that one, ask your doctor, really is great.
