Hi Carlos, It is a big decision. The cost is around $7.40/per day and it's not covered by insurance but then no supplements are covered by insurance. I ran it by my Mayo Clinic primary care who sent the list to a Mayo pharmacist for comments. The only concern shared with me was he thought the Omega 3 amount was a little too much but probably wouldn't hurt me.
If it were me trying to make the decision and the doctor told me not to take it I would want to know why not and what science based evidence do you have to support why I shouldn't take it. Then I would compare with research studies that are currently available for each of the supplements they are worried about. My decision would be based on my own concerns of the side effects, cost to me and how well my current medications are working to relieve my symptoms.
Most of the supplements in the protocol are listed on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy - Supplements for Neuropathy section and have been shown to help with neuropathy through clinical studies - https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf
