@cocodab -- I have the same cravings for sugar but I really try to avoid it along with alcohol as both make neuropathy worse. I've stopped eating most processed foods and have eliminated fast foods which used to be a big problem for me. I started looking at nutrition after reading a book - The Wahls Protocol by Dr. Terry Wahls. She has an amazing story of curing her symptoms of MS through diet and nutrition. Her story -- https://terrywahls.com/about/about-terry-wahls/. I still struggle a little but at least I'm now looking at what I put into my body. ☺

I take some supplements which help my neuropathy -- mainly I believe it's slowing or has stopped the progression which I was worried about when I first started searching on what might help. My story is posted earlier on Connect here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/anyone-here-dealing-with-peripheral-neuropathy/?pg=42#comment-65985

I also keep a short saying I found close by as a reminder for me...

Diet...
Every time you eat or drink,
You are either feeding disease
or You are fighting it.
The choice is Yours....
