Default Found this video about Neuropathy on youtube

Thank goodness I started methyl B-12 over two years ago.

I had been looking around on youtube and typed in Mens Diabetic Slippers (because Alan needs those big roomy slippers for around the house), and I noticed a lot of videos about Peripheral Neuropathy.

This one caught my eye. There are others.

So if any of you who are not totally convinced about B-12, take a look.

Interesting...

His vitamin product is very overpriced. Contains cyano form too.

B-100 is very inexpensive, his product is only 30 days supply!

A wise shopper can get better quality with methyl B12 and save money with the B-100 online. (pennies a day that way)

But it IS a step in the right direction, I agree.
His Biofreeze price, on the other hand, is competitive.

Hello,
IMO the Methyl B-12 5000mcg by Jarrow formulas from Iherb is a fair bargain.

Default Dr. Spitz--

--is one of those neuropathy experts who's been around a while, and who is embracing new technologies like Youtube to get the message out to a greater number of people.

I do often suspect that those who do this kind of things are also looking to expand their client bases--as Spitz does here, they often push their own vitamin formulations or newsletters--but hey, even doctors have to make a living. I do tend to look more kindly on those who don't necessarily push their own stuff, though.

I have never known a practicing (private practice) doc who was not on the phone in his spare time, concluding deals in real-estate, stocks, manufacturing of a product, partnership in a restaurant, or some similar deal.
These guys are 'go-getters' and self motivators.
That's why they're in private practice and not on staff of a University or teaching hospital (although they may be, part-time),
They want to make money. the 'American Dream'. Look at the doc/inventor who makes/sells the modified TENS units (The Rebuilder) for PN sufferers.
But I tend to feel the same way as Glenntaj - less than a kindly look in their direction. More like snake-oil hawkers.

Wow, you brought be back in time YEARS ago when I was seeing a different doctor than our beloved Dr. Fred.

That doctor (who was a good doctor and took very good care of my hubby and me), said "I have a line of health supplements that I am coming out with"

I politely declined because I knew that private lines of supplements would cost WAY more than anything I could get in GNC or CVS.

But so far, thanks to Puritans Pride with their Buy 2 get 3 free promos, we are doing JUST FINE

lol

I have to agree, I get as many of my supplies as I can from Puritan's.

Thanks Melody for the infor on youtube, I have never looked anything up on it. I found it interesting. I have started taking B-12 that mrsd talked about, its been about 1 month and I do think there has been a bit of an improvement. It could be mind over matter too, but I don't think so. I love reading people's comments, I learn something new each time.

Hi hon.
I can assure you, it's NOT mind over anything. Your body is loving the Methyl B-12.

You're doing great!!!
