Dr. Ron breaks down neuropathy as a warning sign, not a disease, and reviews its main root causes: blood sugar dysfunction, mitochondrial failure, statin-related myelin damage, vitamin/mineral deficiencies, low thyroid function, toxins and medications, electromagnetic exposure, and poor circulation.
He offers a practical action plan: improve metabolism by reducing sugar and processed foods, consider 12–14 hour overnight fasting, use targeted supplements (B-complex, B1/B6/B12/folate, vitamin D, magnesium, alpha-lipoic acid, acetyl L-carnitine), avoid adulterated seed oils, support circulation with walking, saunas, and contrast showers, and reduce EMF exposure at night.
Dr. Ron advises specific lab checks (insulin, methylmalonic acid, homocysteine, full thyroid panel including reverse T3 and antibodies) and to question medications that harm nerves. He emphasizes neuropathy can often be reversed if the nerve isn’t completely dead, with many patients noticing improvement in 4–8 weeks when following the plan consistently.
