Does Mayo endorse specific neuropathy supplements or cures?

Posted by dinee @dinee, Feb 4 9:42am

I have just seen an ad that says Mayo Clinic endorses it product. It is called Nerve Freedom. Does Mayo indeed back that product??

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I've had PN for 24 years and tried so many so called cures. The only thing that seems to work temporarily for me is to try and think of other things. This works a lot of times but there are some days when nothing helps. Massage and acupuncture helps sometimes but it's only a temporary fix. Sometimes my other pains ( lower back) outweighs it then I use tylenol and my massager. This is caused by diabetes. I wish all of you could get over this and if a miracle comes along let us all know.

Welcome @rvmassey, I think we are all waiting for that miracle to come along. I also wish we could just get over it and have a great rest of our lives. It's good to see that you have found something that at least provides some temporary relief. You might find it helpful to scan through the other discussions in the Neuropathy Support Group to connect with others.

Do you have pain with your neuropathy or just numbness/tingling?

Same here. However I must admit that every time I see one of these advertises I can't help myself from the hope swelling inside of me. 😒 Even though I know it's not true. It's truly evil how these companies prey on people with neuropathy and other chronic diseases. I've spent untold dollars on some of these scam products for neuropathy, arthritis and chronic pain. None of them worked. So take it from me, keep your money in your pocket and pray for a scientific breakthrough instead.

I agree whole heartily, I have spent a lot of money falling for these so called miracle products. I am waiting for that break through cure to happen.

Never heard of it. Whats the active ingredients?

There is no cure. Whomever claims there is should be locked up, particularly if they are selling you something. All snake oil

Nerve Freedom has the same general ingredients as Nervive an other similar nerve supplements. A large discount store has their brand for FAR less than the name brands. A doctor suggested that I just take 600-700 alpha lipoic acid instead of an expensive supplement with that as the primary active ingredient. I agree with bgbear2. How do you think the former cop got those polo ponies that he talks about?

I asked about this. Doc says it is for acute pain, not long-term pain.
