Have you tried the new Protocol 525 product for neuropathy relief?

Hi John, Based on what i've picked up from you and a few other credible sources of info, i think i will try the Protocol 525, despite the fact that i'm hesitant because of ALA ingredient and my hypo thyroid/levothyroxin issue which i have read is a reason to be careful. I have consulted my endocrinologist and we will do a blood test in about 3 months from the start of the program. Since my sensory nerve neuropathy has become quite aggressive of late, spreading to my upper limbs and back and chest for no apparent reason, I have to try something, whatever the cost. Thanks for your input on this product.

Just a quick note, I don't believe it's a matter of if they have ever heard of this substance. I did run all of the original supplements in the current 525 product when we were ordering them separately. It was over 20 pills daily for all of the supplements and vitamins we were taking in the Facebook group. Because it was difficult for a lot of members to take so many pills, the person who started the group, Bob Diamond, worked with a local pharmaceutical company to see if we could combine some of the vitamins into a smaller number of pills. Hence the name 525 (5 capsules in the morning, 2 at noon, 5 in the evening vs the 20+ pills). The cost is close to the same amount we were paying through Amazon to purchase the individual items, about $6.50/day. Another benefit is that the different items were ordered when you ran out and they typically ran out at different times during the month due to how many pills were in each product.

All of the products have scientific evidence of benefiting/helping nerve regeneration and health. I ran the original list of supplements by my Mayo doctor who sent them to a pharmacist for their thoughts and she didn't have an issue with them. Most of the ingredients are listed on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy here: https://29fvx519grkh3bdqrc16zioc-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Supplements-Not-highlighted.pdf. Here's another article that lists a lot of the same supplements - https://www.healthline.com/health/neuropathy-supplements

I started taking the Protocol 525 in Sept 2016 before it became the Protocol 525 and we ordered everything through Amazon and sometimes the manufacturer's website if the price was better. I only have the numbness and do feel that it has slowed or possibly stopped the progression of my idiopathic small fiber PN as the numbness was close to the knees in both legs when I started and within a few months of taking the supplements it seemed to be just above my ankles. Since I had tried so many different things with very little help, this was a big deal for me. I realize that this is a little subjective on my part and it may not work for everyone but if you've tried everything else it may be worthwhile to try. I would certainly run it by my doctor first just to make sure there are no interactions with any other medications you may be taking.

The ingredients for the Protocol 525 are listed under the frequently asked questions on their site here: https://theprotocol525.com/faq/. Good luck whatever you decide. I hope you find something that helps!

@lincolned I hope it works for you and provides some relief. Can you keep us updated after you have had a chance to try it?

Hi again, I came across this list of things that can aggrevate neuropathy. in that seafood is on the list, does it rule out taking fish oil as part of the Protocol program? I think i have had a reaction to salmon.

This sounds very interesting. How does this protocol work if it doesn’t involve meds? Thank you.

John, checking out P525: couple questions: are there specific foods or medication you should avoid with P525? My feet don’t burn they are ice cold. Will P525 help me? How much water should you drink daily with it? Thanks for all of your information, bcool123
