Book Synopsis
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition in which the peripheral nerves are damaged.These nerves are responsible for sending signals from the body to the brain. When they are damaged, they don't work properly and can cause a range of symptoms, including pain, numbness, and weakness.
The exact cause of peripheral neuropathy is often unknown, but it can be the result of diabetes, an infection, or another underlying health condition. There is no cure for peripheral neuropathy, but there are ways to manage the symptoms. One way is through diet.
A peripheral neuropathy diet can help to control symptoms and may even help to reverse nerve damage. This diet is high in whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and healthy fats. It's low in refined carbs, sugar, and saturated fat.

Review Quotes
"My friend told me she had neuropathy in her feet, hence I was drank to this book. This was not just informative, but detailed and easy to understand. It gave very valuable information on ways to actually heal this thing, even including recipes filled with foods that aid in that healing. I didn't know how important the b vitamin is in relation to the nerves, or how vital exercise was to avoiding getting this as well as healing it, but that, couples with alot of other useful and helpful info has made this a very easy to recommend and valuable read."

You'll learn what symptoms to expect as well as common causes. Then it moves into treatment options. So many diseases can be better managed through proper diet. This guide breaks down what foods you want to avoid and what food you should seek out instead. Then it creates a 7-day meal plan along with corresponding recipes. Very handy when trying to adjust your lifestyle to manage the disease.
