Another country heard from...

I do have lots of questions, though.

Background:

Diabetic neuropathy is a common and often debilitating condition for which available treatments are limited. Because a low-fat plant-based diet has been shown to improve glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes, we hypothesized that such a diet would reduce painful symptoms of diabetic neuropathy.

Conclusions:

Improvements were seen in some clinical and pain measures. This pilot study suggests the potential value of a plant-based diet intervention, including weekly support classes, for treating painful diabetic neuropathy.

You could also look at OPC's namely: grape seed extract and or pycnogenol. I'm headed into 20 yrs on these OPC's...for my total immune system. I've never had the "fog" issue as many report with so many health issues...OPC's work on our total circulatory system from head to toes....

I have a post on the vitamins/supps section here on OPC's...I'm huge on Coconut Oil, use it for everything.
