Resolving Diabetic Neuropathy

Did you know that diabetic neuropathy can be treated nutritionally?

That’s right. Diabetic neuropathy is a real problem in America that conventional medicine has no real solution. Just look at the statistics:

• 10% or 34 million Americans have diabetes and the number is increasing by 5% each year
• 88 million American adults — approximately 1 in 3 have pre-diabetes
50% - 66% of diabetic adults, during their lifetime, suffer Peripheral Neuropathy
• 95% of all diabetics have evidence of nerve damage

One of the documented root causes for diabetes is an impaired delta-6 desaturase metabolic pathway from impaired insulin production.This metabolic defect causes a poor anti-inflammatory response in both Type I and Type II patients. Even with insulin therapy, the pathway is still deficient. This deficiency directly decreases PGE1 output, which is both a powerful anti-inflammatory and vasodilator. This action helps prevent clogging of the microvascular circulation. Taking NASID drugs like aspirin, Tylenol, Aleve, Motrin, Ibuprofen for pain impedes the Δ-6 desaturase pathway. In addition, diabetic patients frequently consume processed foods and adulterated oils that decrease the precursor of PGE1, which is Dihomo-γ-linolenic acid.

One of the solutions to reversing diabetic neuropathy is to increase production of PGE1 by taking organic, cold pressed omega 6 oils, which maximizes nerve healing, repairs cell membranes, increases intracellular oxygen transport and is anti-inflammatory. A case in point. A diabetic patient was referred to me who was suffering with severe painful joints. After 10 days of taking the organic, cold pressed omega 6 oils, 90% of his joint pains disappeared. The key to resolving neuropathic pain is to define the root cause and support the body with high quality nutritional supplements.
