@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.
