do any of the advertised vitamins work, or are they a scam?

I think what one eats is more important than "taking" anything. Avoiding sugar and sugar substitutes, soda pop, fatty meats, full fat cheeses, Concentrate on fresh and often raw or slightly cooked vegetables, fruits, seafood
meats. I avoid most dairy because I am lactose intolerant. Recently I have been drinking a "cocktail" of 8 oz pineapple juice and 8 oz coconut milk for breakfast and find the edema in legs and feet is rapidly disappearing and with that some pain goes as well,

Hi,
I too control my neuropathy with food exercise and diet but supplements can help. I usually walk my Berners-Lee twice sometimes 3 times a day ( keep this in mind). When my iron and ferritin where in the low single digits I had transfusions. I thought by eating the best foods I could elevate my iron. I ate spinach every day for nothing because it needs vitamins C and D to be absorbed. My vitamin D needed a supplement to get back to the double digits, even though I was outside everyday!
So I also drink cranberry juice with my spinach. I also take a multi- vitamin. I do try to eat well and exercise. Massaging my feet everynight and mornung helps the most.
