Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Neuropathy and diet? When everything else falls short of providing relief, what about dramatically altering your diet? Has anybody tried this? I'm not referring to just eating more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, etc., the usual stuff that is discussed and recommended. Rather, I'm wondering if some holistic, seemingly weird approach to eating different could make a difference. Any thoughts on this topic?

@betoma, After reading Dr. Terry Wahls story on how she was able to successfully address her MS symptoms through cellular nutrition I am a believer that it can help neuropathy long term and provide some relief -- https://terrywahls.com/about/about-terry-wahls/. Not sure about the weird approach part but I have tried to drastically reduce the amount of carbs I take in daily and also do intermittent fasting to control my eating window.
