Thank you, Colleen Young, for the links to articles about some of the substances members mentioned. Some things sound too good to be true, and prove to be so.
While we're at it, I call 'shenanigans' on the 'essential oils'. I wonder what Mayo Clinic has to say about them. If members are wasting money on perfumed hype - that is sad ! If the oils really are 'essential' then I want to buy some too ! Peggy

@pfbacon When considering complementary or alternative treatments, be open-minded yet skeptical and do your research. Learn about the potential benefits and risks. Be sure to carefully evaluate claims made by the producers and/or sellers of supplements, natural products and other alternative medicines.

For neuropathy, Mayo Clinic's treatment goals are to manage the condition causing neuropathy and to relieve symptoms. See more here: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/peripheral-neuropathy/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20352067
