Default Unusually interesting article on neuropathy

I can't post it because I am on an IPad. I stumbled across JackRuse.com and I read his explanation on neuropathies mostly labeled idiopathic and why and how they spread. He explains the iodine and low vitamin D connections. He advocates a low carb ketogenic diet (Paleo) and warns all Pners to stay way from all sugar alcohols. He discusses the most important supplements to take such as Revesterol.

I have to read the article possibly 2 more times to understand the medical information, but it sounds as if he really knows his stuff. It's been a long time since I read anything so detailed.

Anyhow I am interested in others opinions on this article.

Default Is this the article?

I believe this is it. He's states it takes 18 -36 months to heal. You really have to be patient and not give up if you don't see results in a month.

Jack Kruse is a neurosurgeon and pretty smart guy (and a wee bit intense too). He has been on a number of Podcasts - especially Ben Greenfield's fitness podcast. I recently downloaded his book to my Kindle, but I have yet to read it.

Terry Wahls is another person who advocates for a Ketogenic diet for neurological conditions and has an excellent book as well. She has been interviewed on several podcasts in the Paleo and fitness communities.

I've not heard of him till now. I found that we have done quite of few of the things he mentions in the article over the years. I'll need to look into the higher doses of resveratrol now.

Thank you for posting this! I have tried many things, some that really help me. We have to keep trying, right? I am going to give this diet a go, I assume that I should have my iodine, etc levels checked first. This should be interesting. And very hard at times. I went carb free before and we have a heck of a good reason to stay strong
