SCAM alert for Neuropathy treatment
Why is it legal for AI created videos to sell products for neuropathy supposedly endorsed by Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz and others? I always check to see if they are scams and so many are. Not sure why they are not prosecuted and put out of business.

@frankmoore yes, I have been using red light therapy for 7 years . I use it for 20 minutes a day. It really helped my foot pain and the numbness is still there but it has not increased. There are many red light therapy devices on the market so do research before buying one. Buy one that is medical grade, made in the US. I bought Healthlight and am happy with it
Hi Joanne
I have been checking out the CuraYou, it’s expensive, but has more power
Redlight & Infared. The infared is supposed to go deeper into you legs &
feet, getting to the nerves.
Thank you for sharing your results with me.

Which brand do you use?
@heisenberg34 a PT showed me that you go to the he kitchen counter (or any counter on your home) and stand on one foot. Then as your need support put your hands under the counter to keep your balance and prevent yourself from falling. Alternative as needed. Exercise for 5-10 minutes as tolerated. Do this
2- 3 or more times a daynas tolerated. Walking more also helps even if it's just walking around inside the house.
@jacklin you are right! It's always good to check out reviews of any ad that is online. I had almost overlooked one the other day for a product for my dogs. All night they kept putting one ad after another on my feed until I gave them a negative review that I never saw posted in their ads etc. Customer service is the one that people will mention that is terrible. Not getting items or not responding to requests for refunds is very common with the scams.
