O/T neuropathy information

[Guest guest]

Vitamin B12 is an important nutrient used in the nerves and the blood. Deficiency has now been shown to trigger peripheral neuropathy in diabetes patients who take the drug Metformin. Because B12 is difficult to absorb, many people have deficiencies and are not aware of its effect on their health. B12 is not prevalent in the diet and most people need additional supplementation. The only sources of vitamin B12 are in animal and dairy products. For the over seven million vegetarians, adding B12 to their diet is a necessity.

 

Metformin, a popular drug given to treat diabetes and insulin resistance, can also cause a B12 deficiency. A recent survey found that 40% of metformin users were deficient in vitamin B12. Three-quarters of those metformin users also displayed the peripheral neuropathy typically found in diabetics. These findings were reported at the American Diabetes Association`s 69th Annual Scientific Sessions in June, 2009. This prompted a recommendation that anyone using Metformin who has peripheral neuropathy be screened for vitamin B12 deficiency.more at the linkhttp://www.NaturalNews.com/026718_Metformin_vitamin_B12_vitamin_B.htmlIt's really interesting!

Clare, please add Sea-Buckthorn oil to your list of things other than animal and diary that contains vitamin B12. Sea-Buckthorn contains

the two naturally occurring cofactor forms of B-12: 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin

(andenosylcobalamin—AdoB-12), and methylcobalamin (MeB-12). This NON-synthetic

natural form is important for the normal functioning of the brain and the

nervous system and also for the formation of blood. They are normally involved

in the metabolism of every cell of the body, especially affecting DNA synthesis

and regulation, but also FATTY ACID

synthesis and energy production.

I really hate to seem lost in this whole subject, bu I suffer from neuropathy in both legs due to the nerve in my s-1 nerve being injured to a completely flat stage. Doctor said I may have to always live with the constint numbness and occasianal stabbing they have place me on a new medication Tizanidine generic for Zanaflex. They seem to help some but I am still in constant pain. Shoes are extremely painful and I often trip as picking my feet up is something I really have too concentrate on..So I guess my question is, is there something else I could be doing?? I ride one of those pedal biks that you sit on the edge of your bed with trying to build up some strength. They want to strt me on full physical therapy nest week, right now i can barely walk 1/2 a block.Any suggestions would be appreciated.
