Eliminating Foods for Neuropathy pain

I have found that my neuropathy is significantly related to and affected by certain foods, particularly sugar and any high glycemic carbohydrates, and also alcohol. I also suspect that I have a sensitivity to gluten and possible dairy. Tomatoes and other nightshade plants can cause a reaction. I try to stay on a modified Keto diet and eat mostly foods with fats and proteins and very limited carbs. Seems to help me. Have others had similar experiences?

I am glad you posted this thread! I have recently begun to suspect that there are foods that cause my SFN to flare. I am going to start documenting my SFN experiences as it relates to food to see if there may be a connection.
Hi, @catro - sounds like a significant discovery for your neuropathy if you've discovered certain foods - tomatoes and other nightshade plants, monk fruit-sweetened creamer in your coffee, and possibly gluten and dairy - can cause a reaction. Wondering if @rwinney @iceblue @cncwi17 @avmcbellar @retiredteacher have any input on whether similar foods have caused a neuropathic reaction for them.
How are you finding going off some of these foods, @catro?

I've learned the hard way consuming too much sugar. I've also reduced processed foods such as frozen entrees and deli meat. Plus no more chips and unnatural snack type foods.
