Hi, I'm new so unsure of protocols here--but what is Kcals?
I have neuropathy in my feet--just from balls of feet through toes. Not totally numb so endochronologist has never been too worried about it, but leg swells and limits my movement, and currently one foot is dusky--much darker than the other foot. Didn't even know there were different types of neuropathy.
I'm interested in slowing progress but without drugs--I control my pre-diabetes with diet and herbs.

Welcome @calannie, Here's an explanation of Kcal vs Calories -- https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/kcal-vs-calories. I also had swelling in the legs with my neuropathy but was later diagnosed with lymphedema of the legs and now wear compression socks daily. You mentioned controlling your pre-diabetes with diet and herbs. You might find the following discussion helpful.

Have you seen a cardiologist for your leg swelling and darker foot?
