Why would any of this obviously not work for most people? I live in low-income housing and grow my food and herbs in a local community garden (available in most towns and cities). I learned how to garden from books and how to make herbal tinctures on the internet. Everything I do is available to most people. I mentioned eliminating sugar, gluten, dairy, brown rice, caffeine, and alcohol. They are all well-known to worsen neuropathy because they aggravate nerves and the nervous system. I learned the hard way about brown rice flour used in many GF products. The hull of brown rice contains arsenic, which is a neurotoxin. But, if you soak/sprout brown rice for 48 hours before cooking, it changes the chemical composition of the arsenic. And, if you ferment glutenous grains in sourdough starter, it eliminates up to 80% of the gluten. So homemade and local bakery sourdough is ok (unless you have celiac), but factory-made sourdough uses yeast, which means there is no fermentation process. None of this is unique to me and available to anyone except for the unhoused.
