20 million people in the United States experience neuropathy related pain or discomfort. As with many diseases, your food choices can have a big impact on your pain levels and the disease in general.
Avoid Gluten
Gluten is a protein found in many grains and has been found to trigger pain.
Avoid Refined Grains
Refined grains can spike glucose levels which, over time, can further damage nerves.
Avoid Sugars and Additives
These are not typically found in nutrient-rich foods.
Add More B12 to your diet
Our systems tend to lose B12 as we age. Foods rich in B12 include eggs, lean meat, fish and poultry.
Eat More Fruits and Vegetables
Strong doses of antioxidants, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals found in fruits and vegetables can be key in diminishing your pain and improving your overall health.
