Healthy Feet & Nerves

Description

Neuropathy is nerve damage or disease, and most people are familiar with the problems it causes with the feet and lower legs. In most cases, neuropathy continues to worsen over time. Clinical studies have shown that several nutrients play a role in improving neuropathy and in some cases, even reversing its course. One of the most common forms of neuropathy is caused by diabetes. While this product focuses mostly on treating diabetic neuropathy, its nutrient principles apply to other forms of neuropathy as well.

The ingredients in this product include a variety of clinically-tested, safe and effective nutrients that can make a big difference and offer hope for those suffering from diabetic neuropathy.

• P-5-P: This is the bioactive form of vitamin B6. In a study examining patients with hyperglycemia, the patients who were given P-5-P showed reduced blood glucose levels after only a week.
• Thiamin: Thiamin helps the body metabolize carbohydrates effectively; without it, sugars do not break down properly and your chances of oxidative damage and blood vessel inflammation increase.
• Methylcobalamin: This is the active form of vitamin B12. Methylcobalamin helps nerves function better and delayed the damage to nerves caused by diabetic conditions.
• Folate: Research combining folate with methylcobalamin shows that it improves the nerve fibers that lay close to the surface of the skin in people with Type 2 Diabetes.
• Riboflavin: This was one in a group of nutrients that reduced diabetic neuropathy symptoms in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study over the course of four months.
• Pantothenic acid: A lack of pantothenic acid can cause numbness and tingling in the feet.
• Alpha-lipoic acid: Alpha-lipoic acid can boost levels of glutathione, helping keep delicate nerves from oxidative damage.
• Biotin: There are reports that this nutrient reduces the symptoms of neuropathy, though this may take 1 to 3 months before results are fully realized.
• Chromium: Chromium activates insulin receptors, helping to prevent the build-up of glucose in the bloodstream.
• Zinc: Zinc is extremely effective as an antioxidant and it helps promote tissue and wound healing.
• Boswellia: This extract is one of nature’s best anti-inflammatories. It is included to help relieve the pain and inflammation that goes along with neuropathy.
