Yup everyone thinks that.
Not so bad if it’s food but the real issue and why some many are getting problems is that manufacturers are adding it in hugely high mg so they can advertise that product us “healthy”!
However some still get PN from food…. It prob doesn’t hep that some of us have stuffed our faces with food meaning we have gone over the amount of B6 that we need daily… if we eat a lot of meat (keto), or even if we eat a lot of healthy fruits and vegetables too.
But remember that when you’ve been getting a lot of B6 and than you get dehydrated…. And you ignore the tingling feet and fingers, and legs, because you don’t understand the problem.. and by the time you find out it could be diagnosed with a B6 blood test… you’ve waited too long and it’s no longer in your blood. But now it’s gone into your muscles and damaged your nerves… and you can’t walk well.. and you finally go to a doctor who doesn’t understand, and they say you have “Idiopathic” PN.
Which is a word they use when they don’t know the cause!
Sheesh!
And also the doctors may not know how to help you recover your damaged nerves and muscles back…
Hopefully more people will know this in time and/or some class action LAWSUITS have happened to force open the eyes of both the medical community, and manufacturers too.
No one wants Peripheral Neuropathy.
