Nerve Support Formula

[Amanda]

I regularly take Mag B and Zinc supplements which do help me a lot....they also contain vitamin C and E and when I dont take them for a while I notice huge differences in my skin condition and also in pain levels. The Magnesium certainly helps with easier bowel movements. i eat well with plenty of fresh veg and fruit daily....however I do need the extra supplements.

Thanks JeanieC,
You are right about the St John's Wort. I've stopped taking it now-and it didn't make any difference anyway.
I will try taking a magnesium supplement.

I agree Amanda, magnesium is useful. Regarding alpha lipoic acid (ALA), a few well made studies in Germany demonstrated that it was useful for diabetic neuropathy. That didn't prevent the supplements vendors from immediately claiming benefits for all neuropathies which was just not true.

I have been getting B12 shots now for 4 or 5 years because I can't assimulate B12 from food or supplements. But I will be even more diligent about getting it at the doctors. It's horribly expensive that way, though.
