Supplements - What helps nerve pain and/or neuropathy?

Hi, John. I was taking R-ALA, 600mg. first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and waiting 2 hrs. Before eating as information said. I was in it a month and started itching all over, almost non-stop. Looked for info on side effects and said itching was one of the less frequent side effects. I stopped taking it and the itching has stopped. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Does anyone take with food?

I know the Protocol 525 group suggests taking the R-ALA with food but it was because some folks had digestive issues when they took it on an empty stomach. I take my supplements every morning on an empty stomach but it's more because I do intermittent fasting and my eating window is mid-morning to early afternoon. I've had itching on my back and arms but never attributed it to R-ALA because I had the itching before I started taking it.

It would be interesting to see if the itching stopped if you start taking the R-ALA with food.
