Appropriate Nutrition For Neuropathy

Thursday, November 02, 2023

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” - Hippocrates

One of the most powerful tools we have at our disposal when it comes to improving health (especially nerve health) is nutrition.  The foods we put into our body are instrumental in improving (or damaging) overall health.  

In our studies of neuropathy, the following benefits are found with appropriate nutrition:

  • Improve foundation for nerve repair: The most valuable benefit of appropriate nutrition is providing the necessary building blocks to allow repair of nerves and overall improvement of nerve function.
  • Reduce the risk of chronic diseases: All forms of chronic disease can damage peripheral nerves and lead to progress of neuropathy.  Likewise nutrition that reduces these disease processes improve overall nerve health. 
  • Enhance physical performance: Any improved functioning of the body can reduce some of the common causes of peripheral neuropathy including improved blood flow and appropriate bodily support of the nervous system.
  • Improve mental health: Mental health has a direct influence on peripheral neuropathy and improving mental health will also improve overall nerve health.
  • Support a healthy weight: Another benefit of proper nutrition is supporting a healthy weight as obesity is another common cause of peripheral  neuropathy.
