This type of nerve damage can lead to feelings of numbness or weakness in legs and arms.
2) B vitamins, in general, can work to reduce internal inflammation - a main driver of peripheral neuropathy. So, to reduce the risk of diabetes-related nerve damage, it's important to eat foods which contain these important vitamins.
3) Microalgae farming kits that produce between 3 and 5 grams of fresh, green algae every day, and they supply vitamins B1 and B2, plus copper and iron. These nutrients and minerals support nerve regeneration.
4) Dancing mushrooms are a unique type of mushroom which supply every main B vitamin, along with vitamin D2, aka ergocalciferol. This vitamin helps to construct a thicker nerve axon, and it's also been shown to quicken nerve repair.
5) Kale contains a great supply of vitamin K, which protects nerve cells from cancerous oxidative stress. It's also been shown to protect against neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease.
6) Sprats are tiny oily fish with edible bones. This helps them supply hydroxyapatite, the most natural form of calcium you can eat. This form of calcium has been shown to limit nerve damage, and it's been shown to aid nerve cell growth.
7) Curly-leafed parsley contains the highest concentration of apigenin of any food. This compound can cross the blood-brain barrier to reduce oxidative stress, and it's also been shown to extend the life of nerve cells.
