The Answer to Diabetic Leg Pain May Be ALC (acetyl-L-carnitine)
One of the complications of diabetes is peripheral neuropathy.
Peripheral neuropathy is a result of nerve damage which often causes weakness, numbness and pain, usually in your hands and feet.
People generally describe the pain of peripheral neuropathy as tingling or burning as well as a loss of sensation compared to a feeling of wearing a thin stocking or glove.
Peripheral neuropathy is a serious disease of blood vessels that supply the nerves as well as the nerves themselves
The most common drug prescribed for people suffering with
To be quite
One look at the PDR will get you wondering too.
Here is a list of some of the recorded side effects of Lyrica:
- Has an unexpectedly high incidence of
hemangio - It raises your
creatinine - Lowers your platelet count
- Causes changes in the EKG that can lead to heart block
- Causes weight gain
- Causes swelling of the ankles
- Can cause life-threatening angioedema (swelling of the throat and face inhibiting breathing).
- Causes retinal atrophy as well as corneal inflammation and calcification. (
meaning - Can you believe that many of the above side effects are things that the diabetic patient is trying to avoid?
This drug just speeds up the likelihood that you will get the side effects a lot sooner.
To make matters worse any improvement the diabetic patient gets is short-lived and will commonly wear off after one year.
I simply don’t understand why the public

Yes, the research is overflowing with real non-drug answers to peripheral neuropathy. And the best part is
Just one look at the medical references below should be quite convincing for nutrients that have actually reversed diabetic neuropathy such as acetyl-L-carnitine, lipoic acid, vitamin E, etc..
Considering these medical studies are from the very journals of
As shown
Sometimes the answer could also be as simple as fixing a vitamins B1 or B6 deficiency. It all depends on what the person is low in.
