My husband has diagnosed idiopathic small fiber peripheral Neuropathy. He's been dealing with it since 2010. There's a "supplement protocol" that supposedly significantly reduces Neuropathy pain to a more tolerable level; this supplement is on that protocol. The person who put together "the protocol' researched the least expensive & researched the most effective supplements & this one falls into that category. There are approximately 8 - 12 supplements / elements & all require being taken as specified in order to achieve pain relief results. My husband received a similar but not exactly the same supplement regimen from an in-house chiropractic clinic nutritionist. He had to quit after 3 months or so because of travel time to the clinic, $500.00 per month office visit & extremely unaffordable cost of the clinic's custom-label supplements. Neuropathy is a cash cow for chiropractors & pain management & pharmaceutical drug companies; sadly, the majority of the tine, they all fail at relieving the patient's nerve pain & often create more irreversible life shortening damage to the patient. Neuropathy is terrible & life changing. We think my husband got Neuropathy from long term Statin use (cholesterol drugs) but we can't prove it and we are not sure if that's the case. Lots of pharmaceutical drugs are suspicious for having side effects of irrepairable painful nerve damage. The current supplement protocol is extremely more affordable. It calls for weaning off of all the horrible pharmaceutical drugs & pain killers. My husband has been on the protocol for approximately four weeks. He has not experienced any noticeable pain relief but we remain hopeful because doing otherwise is not an option
