Apex Gold Reviews: Does It Work? A Nerve Surgeon Checks the Label

Nerve Health · Neuropathy Supplement Reviews

Apex Gold lists reasonable ingredients and publishes its label. What the label will not tell you is how much of any of them you are getting.

If you are reading Apex Gold reviews because your feet tingle, burn or feel numb and an ad promised relief, here is the short answer: Apex Gold’s ingredient list is plausible, its label is published, and its dosing cannot be checked, because five of its six ingredients are listed without amounts.

That last point is the whole story, and most Apex Gold reviews skip it. Search the name and you will find pages that list the six ingredients, describe what each one “supports” and end with a discount link. Very few do the one thing that decides whether a supplement matches the research: compare the milligrams on the label with the milligrams in the trials.

That comparison is the test I applied to every technique I adopted over more than 20 years as a peripheral nerve surgeon. What was tested, at what dose, and does this match it? For Apex Gold, the label answers the first part of that question for only one ingredient. So this review does what can be done from the outside. It reads the label line by line, works through the arithmetic the label does allow, explains what each ingredient has and has not been shown to do, and covers side effects, the refund terms, the look-alike product names, how Apex Gold compares with Quiet Nerves, and how it stacks up against other nerve supplements, including mine.

I gave Apex Gold a short verdict in my label audit of seven neuropathy supplements: a label you cannot check. This is the full version.

A disclosure before we start. I formulated NeuroAxis, a nerve support supplement sold on this site, and I authored the two published clinical studies on its predecessor formula. That is a conflict of interest, and you should weigh it. It is also why every statement about Apex Gold below comes from its own label or website, with the date I checked it, and why NeuroAxis appears later against the same yardstick, including where it falls short.

What Is Apex Gold?

Apex Gold is a dietary supplement marketed for nerve health and neuropathy discomfort. Its sales page, useapexlabs.com/nerve, calls it a “Premium Neuropathy Pain Relief Formula.” The label lists a distributor named Apex Gold in Aurora, Colorado, and the directions are one capsule a day. A bottle holds 30 capsules, so one bottle is a 30-day supply.

There is no single-bottle option. The smallest package is two bottles for $158, then three for $207 and six for $294. That works out to $2.63, $2.30 and $1.63 a day. The brand’s shipping page lists $9.99 shipping on one or two bottles and free US shipping on three or more. When I opened checkout for the two-bottle package on October 25, 2026, the total before payment was $158, plus $9.99 shipping and sales tax.

Checkout runs through Digistore24, a third-party online reseller, and the checkout page asks you to agree to Digistore24’s terms. The sales page advertises a 60-day money-back guarantee and says there are no recurring charges or auto-billing. The written return terms behind that guarantee are covered in the complaints section below.

Which Apex Gold Are You Looking At?

The name is used by more than one product. Searches for “Apex Gold” also turn up an unrelated brain and memory capsule and an appetite supplement, and Apex Neuro Elite is a different brand altogether. This review covers only the neuropathy formula sold at useapexlabs.com/nerve. One more detail you may notice: the brand’s return, shipping and contact pages are titled “Apex Boost,” with the same Aurora, Colorado address as the label. If you are buying, make sure the bottle, the label and the seller all match the product you meant to buy.

Apex Gold Ingredients (Per 1-Capsule Serving)

Label figures from the Apex Gold label image posted at useapexlabs.com/nerve, reviewed October 25, 2026. Other ingredients on the label: hypromellose (vegetable capsule), microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, stearic acid and silicon dioxide.

Three things stand out before we touch a single study. First, the label is published, which is more than some competitors offer, and it names a distributor and an address. Second, five of the six ingredients have no individual amount. They sit inside a proprietary blend (a group of ingredients listed under one combined weight, without the amount of each). Blends are legal, and they protect a formula from copycats. They also make it impossible for you, or me, to know whether the ingredient with the evidence is present at 600 mg or 6 mg. Third, the only disclosed amount comes from inside the blend. The magnesium line reads 80 mg “as magnesium glycinate from proprietary blend,” so the compound that supplies it is part of the same 575 mg.

The Yardstick: What Doses Did the Research Use?

Apex Gold has no trial of its own, so any comparison has to be ingredient by ingredient. These are the doses used in the human studies that supplements in this category cite. (The full answer key, with every source, is in my seven-label audit.)

Three ingredients carry most of the human evidence in this category: alpha-lipoic acid at 600 mg, methylcobalamin around 1,500 mcg and benfotiamine at 300 mg or more. Apex Gold lists one of the three and does not say how much of it is in the capsule. The other two are not in the formula.

The Proprietary Blend Problem, With the Arithmetic

A hidden blend usually ends the analysis. In this case the label gives away one useful number, and it is worth following.

The magnesium line reads 80 mg, 19% of the Daily Value. The Daily Value for magnesium is 420 mg, and 19% of 420 is about 80, so the 80 mg is elemental magnesium: the magnesium itself, not the weight of the compound carrying it. Magnesium glycinate is magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine, and depending on the raw material it is roughly 14 to 20% elemental magnesium. Supplying 80 mg of magnesium therefore takes about 400 to 570 mg of magnesium glycinate.

The label says that magnesium glycinate comes from the proprietary blend, and the whole blend weighs 575 mg. Subtract the magnesium glycinate and what remains for the other five ingredients (alpha-lipoic acid, butcher’s broom, L-carnitine, turmeric and CoQ10) is somewhere between about 5 and 175 mg, combined.

I cannot confirm the split from the outside. The raw material could sit at either end of that range, and a manufacturer is allowed some tolerance. But the arithmetic leaves very little room for 600 mg of anything. For comparison, the single alpha-lipoic acid dose that performed best in SYDNEY 2 weighs more than the entire Apex Gold blend.

Most of the 575 mg blend is likely taken up by the magnesium glycinate needed to supply 80 mg of magnesium.

Ingredient by Ingredient: What the Evidence Shows for Nerve Damage

None of these ingredients is a bad choice in itself. The problem is that without doses, their research cannot be applied to this product. Here is what each one has, and has not, been shown to do.

Alpha-Lipoic Acid: The Strongest Evidence, at an Unknown Dose

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is the best-studied nutrient on this label. It is an antioxidant that works in both the watery and the fatty compartments of a cell, which matters for nerves, whose membranes and myelin are fat-rich. It also helps regenerate the cell’s own antioxidants, including glutathione, and it targets the oxidative stress (damage from reactive oxygen molecules) that high blood sugar generates inside nerve tissue.

In the SYDNEY 2 trial, Ziegler and colleagues gave people with diabetic neuropathy 600, 1,200 or 1,800 mg a day for five weeks. 600 mg produced the best balance of benefit and tolerability, and the higher doses mostly added nausea. That is the dose a label needs to reach to borrow this evidence. Apex Gold does not say what it contains, and the blend arithmetic above makes 600 mg very unlikely. More detail is in my alpha-lipoic acid for neuropathy review.

L-Carnitine Is Not Acetyl-L-Carnitine

The nerve trials used acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR), not plain L-carnitine. The difference is more than a prefix. Acetyl-L-carnitine is the form studied for supporting mitochondrial energy in long sensory axons, the cells that run from your spinal cord to your toes and depend on constant fuel along their whole length. Sima and colleagues (2005) gave 1,500 to 3,000 mg a day for a year. A 2019 Cochrane review rated the overall evidence for ALCAR in neuropathy as very low certainty. Plain L-carnitine has a separate research base, mostly in heart and muscle metabolism. A label that lists L-carnitine is drawing on the reputation of a related but different compound, and at any amount that fits in this blend, it is far below the ALCAR trial doses.

Butcher’s Broom: A Circulation Ingredient

Butcher’s broom (Ruscus aculeatus) is a traditional European botanical studied mainly for chronic venous insufficiency, the condition behind heavy, swollen legs and varicose veins. The sales page describes it as supporting circulation and blood flow to the extremities. That makes it a circulation ingredient, not a nerve ingredient, and I am not aware of a human neuropathy trial for it.

That distinction matters more than it sounds. Poor circulation and neuropathy are different problems that can feel similar in the feet, and they are treated differently. If you are not sure which one you have, read neuropathy vs. poor circulation.

Turmeric and Curcumin

Curcumin, the main active compound in turmeric, has real anti-inflammatory activity in laboratory studies, and inflammation around the nerve is one of the pathways that drive neuropathy. The catch is absorption. Curcumin is poorly absorbed on its own, which is why many formulas pair it with piperine (black pepper extract) or use an enhanced delivery form. The Apex Gold label lists turmeric standardized to 95% curcuminoids, and its other ingredients do not include piperine or another absorption enhancer. The human neuropathy evidence for curcumin is still small and early, and without an amount on the label there is nothing to compare against.

Coenzyme Q10

CoQ10 is part of the mitochondrial energy chain and an antioxidant. In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, Hernández-Ojeda and colleagues gave 400 mg a day for 12 weeks to people with diabetic polyneuropathy and found improvements in symptom scores and some nerve conduction measures. It was a small study, 49 people. A 400 mg dose would not fit in Apex Gold’s blend even if the blend held nothing else. The label lists CoQ10 as ubiquinone, a common form, with no amount.

Magnesium: The One Disclosed Dose

Magnesium is involved in nerve signaling and muscle relaxation, and many adults do not get enough from food. Magnesium glycinate is a gentle, well-absorbed form. At 80 mg, Apex Gold provides about a fifth of the 310 to 420 mg adults need each day from all sources, according to the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, and well under the 350 mg upper limit for supplemental magnesium. For neuropathic pain specifically, the evidence is mixed. I cover it in magnesium for neuropathy.

What Is Missing: The B Vitamins

The most important fact about the Apex Gold formula is what is not in it. There is no methylcobalamin (the active form of B12), which drives the methylation cycle that Schwann cells (the cells that build and maintain myelin) depend on. The neuropathy trials pooled in the Sawangjit 2020 meta-analysis most often used 1,500 mcg. There is no benfotiamine (fat-soluble B1), which diverts damaging sugar byproducts away from nerve tissue and was tested at 300 to 600 mg in the BENDIP trial.

One of the clearest combination results in this field paired exactly those kinds of nutrients with alpha-lipoic acid. In Popa and colleagues (2019), alpha-lipoic acid with benfotiamine cut symptoms in half for 65% of participants, compared with 28% for alpha-lipoic acid alone and 11% for benfotiamine alone. It was a small, unblinded eight-week study, and the benefit faded within 12 weeks of stopping. But it shows what a formula leaves on the table when it skips the B-vitamin pathway entirely. My methylcobalamin guide explains why B12 matters for myelin, and if you have been taking B12 without improvement, read why B12 is not always helping neuropathy.

What Apex Gold Gets Right

A fair review says so when a product does something well. The label is published on the brand’s own site, with a named distributor and an address, which is more than Quiet Nerves offers. The ingredient choices are plausible. Alpha-lipoic acid in particular has the strongest human evidence of any nutrient in this category. There is no vitamin B6, which removes one common way nerve supplements cause problems, since chronic excess B6 can itself cause a sensory neuropathy (I cover that in vitamin B6 and peripheral neuropathy). The magnesium dose is modest and safe for most adults. It is one capsule a day, the sales page says there is no auto-billing, and it carries a 60-day guarantee. Apex Gold’s problem is not its ingredient list. It is that the label will not tell you how much of that list is in the capsule.

Does Apex Gold Work for Peripheral Neuropathy?

The honest answer is that nobody knows, because nobody has tested it. There is no published study of the finished product. The question you can usually answer instead is whether a label’s doses fall where the individual ingredients showed benefit. For Apex Gold, the label does not let you answer it, because the doses are not disclosed.

The sales page describes the formula as “designed to support nerve regeneration and repair” and says it “may support relief from tingling and numbness.” Those are the brand’s descriptions, not findings from a study of this product. A dietary supplement may say it supports healthy nerve function. It may not claim to treat a disease, and the page’s own footer says the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

That does not mean nobody who takes Apex Gold feels better. Neuropathy symptoms fluctuate on their own. Placebo responses in painful neuropathy trials are substantial, which is exactly why those trials need placebo groups. People who start a supplement often start other things at the same time, such as tighter blood sugar control or more walking. And someone who is low in magnesium may notice a difference from correcting it. A testimonial cannot separate any of those from the product itself.

It also helps to know what real improvement looks like. In the trials of individual nerve nutrients at full doses, symptom changes took roughly 4 to 12 weeks to appear. Structural repair is slower. A regenerating axon grows at about 1 mm a day, a little over an inch a month, so recovery along the length of the leg is measured in many months. I walk through those timelines in how long nerve supplements take to work. A 60-day guarantee window is shorter than the time nerve tissue usually needs to show structural change.

Apex Gold Side Effects

Without doses, side effect risk is hard to judge, but the ingredients themselves are generally well tolerated. A few cautions apply to the ingredients regardless of amount, and the label itself says to consult a physician before use if you take medication or have a medical condition, and not to use it if you are under 18, pregnant or nursing.

Magnesium can cause loose stools, nausea or abdominal cramping, especially on an empty stomach. If you have kidney disease, talk with your doctor before taking any magnesium supplement, because the kidneys clear excess magnesium.

Alpha-lipoic acid can cause nausea and heartburn. It can lower blood glucose, so if you take insulin or a sulfonylurea, talk with your doctor and monitor more closely when you start it. If you take thyroid medication, ask your doctor before starting ALA as well. A rare autoimmune form of low blood sugar has been reported with ALA, mostly in people with a specific genetic background.

Turmeric can upset the stomach and may add to the effect of blood thinners. If you take an anticoagulant or antiplatelet drug, or have gallbladder disease or gallstones, talk with your doctor first.

Butcher’s broom can cause stomach upset or nausea and acts on blood vessel tone, so mention it to your doctor if you take blood pressure medication.

L-carnitine and CoQ10 are generally well tolerated at supplement doses. CoQ10 may reduce the effect of warfarin, another reason to review any supplement with your prescriber if you take a blood thinner.

The larger risk is not on the label. It is the opportunity cost: months spent on an undisclosed formula while an untreated B12 deficiency, a rising A1C or a compressed nerve keeps doing damage. If you take prescription medications, have surgery scheduled or have a chronic medical condition, show the label to your doctor or pharmacist before you start.

Apex Gold Reviews and Complaints: What People Are Really Asking

Searches for “Apex Gold reviews and complaints” and “is Apex Gold legit” usually come down to three questions. Is it a real product? Will I get my money back if it does not help? Can I trust the reviews I am reading?

It is a real product. It has a published label, a named distributor with an Aurora, Colorado address, a support email and a checkout run by an established reseller platform. What cannot be verified from the outside is the amount of each ingredient, because the label does not disclose it.

The refund terms are narrower than “no questions asked.” The sales page promises a full refund within 60 days. The brand’s return and shipping pages, checked October 25, 2026, add the conditions that apply:

The 60 days are counted from purchase, not from delivery, and the shipping page says returned bottles must arrive at the fulfillment center within 60 days of the original order date.

You start the return by email, with your order number and reason, then ship the bottles back at your own cost within 14 days of receiving return instructions.

All bottles must come back, empty, partly used or full, including any bonus bottles. The shipping page says that failing to return every bottle results in a partial refund.

Shipping charges are not described as refundable, and the shipping page says the shipping fee is deducted from any refund on a refused package.

None of this is hidden. It is on the brand’s own policy pages. But it means the practical window is shorter than 60 days of use: transit time out and back both come out of it. If you buy, save the order confirmation, screenshot the sales page and both policy pages on the day you order, and note who processed the payment. Because checkout runs through Digistore24, your receipt will come from that platform, and it is the reference you would use for any refund request or card dispute.

Reviews deserve the same care. The sales page itself shows no customer testimonials. The checkout page displays a rating of 9.3 from more than 32,000 reviews without saying whether it rates this product, the seller or the checkout platform, along with a “people online now” counter. Treat both as marketing elements, not evidence. Many of the pages ranking for this product’s name are affiliate articles with purchase links. Before you trust any review, including this one, ask two questions: does the writer earn money if you buy, and do the numbers they quote match the bottle?

Apex Gold vs Quiet Nerves

If Apex Gold looks familiar, it may be because you have also seen Quiet Nerves. The two list the same six ingredients: magnesium glycinate, alpha-lipoic acid, butcher’s broom, L-carnitine, turmeric standardized to 95% curcuminoids and CoQ10. They use the same price ladder: no single bottle, then $158, $207 and $294. Both are associated with Aurora, Colorado. Neither contains B vitamins.

There is one difference that matters to a buyer. Apex Gold publishes a label showing the 575 mg blend total and the 80 mg of magnesium. Quiet Nerves publishes no Supplement Facts panel at all, so even the arithmetic above cannot be done for it. I cannot tell you whether the two are the same product sold under different names, and I would not assume it. I can tell you that neither discloses the amounts you would need to judge it. My Quiet Nerves review covers that product’s terms and look-alike sites in detail.

Same six ingredients, same prices. One label shows a blend total; the other shows nothing.

How Apex Gold Compares

Against the other products in my neuropathy supplement reviews, Apex Gold lands near the bottom on both transparency and checkable dosing. Here is the core-three comparison, held to the same standard.

For the labels that do publish every dose, see my Sofon review (two of the three core doses, benfotiamine missing) and my Nerve Recovery Max review (right forms, wrong doses). If you are weighing several products, my guide to how to choose a nerve health supplement walks through the checklist.

The Second Test: How Many Pathways Does the Formula Reach?

Dose is the first test, not the only one. Peripheral neuropathy rarely comes from a single mechanism. It develops along several pathways at once. High glucose drives oxidative stress and floods the cell with damaging sugar byproducts. Myelin depends on B vitamins to be built and maintained. Long axons depend on mitochondria to power transport along their length. And the tissue around the nerve, its blood supply and its inflammatory environment, shapes whether the nerve can recover. A formula that leaves a pathway out entirely is betting on the others.

A dose check asks whether each line matches the research. A pathway check asks how much of the problem the formula reaches.

What the Research Says About Combinations for Diabetic Neuropathy

The trend in the research favors combining ingredients that work on different pathways. The Popa result above is one example. A six-month randomized, placebo-controlled trial by Didangelos and colleagues (2024) tested a ten-ingredient combination including alpha-lipoic acid, B vitamins and palmitoylethanolamide, and found improvements in pain and vibration sense that the placebo group did not show.

Two honest qualifiers belong next to those findings. Most combination trials compare a formula with placebo, not with its own ingredients, so they show that combinations can work without proving the combination beats each part. And no finished formula, NeuroAxis included, has been tested head to head against its own ingredients. That is the study I intend to see done. Until then, multi-pathway formulation is the most reasonable reading of how neuropathy develops and where the evidence is trending, not a settled fact.

Where NeuroAxis Lands on the Same Yardstick

Since I put my own product in those tables, here are its numbers and its gaps. NeuroAxis daily dose (6 tablets): R-alpha-lipoic acid 600 mg, methylcobalamin 2,000 mcg, benfotiamine 300 mg, vitamin B6 10 mg (pyridoxine HCl), acetyl-L-carnitine 600 mg, N-acetyl cysteine 900 mg, CoQ10 150 mg, curcumin 500 mg with BioPerine 10 mg, vitamin D3 800 IU, bromelain 600 GDU and serrapeptase 40,000 SU. Every amount is disclosed.

Where it falls short: acetyl-L-carnitine at 600 mg is below the 1,500 to 3,000 mg Sima used, CoQ10 at 150 mg is below the 400 mg trial dose, and benfotiamine sits at the lower of the two BENDIP arms. It is six tablets a day, not one, which is the honest cost of fitting real doses of several ingredients. At about $2.00 a day on subscription with free shipping ($69.99 for a single bottle), it sits in the same price range as Apex Gold. The difference is that you can check every number, the core three reach trial doses, and every pathway in the table above is covered.

I treat any nerve support supplement, including my own, as the third and smallest of three pillars, after nutrition and lifestyle. The reason is the evidence. The human study that actually increased nerve fiber density, a lifestyle intervention trial in people with prediabetic neuropathy (Smith, 2006), used diet and exercise, not pills. That is why every NeuroAxis order includes the 160-page NeuroAxis Protocol, my guide to the nutrition and lifestyle work that comes first. My own clinical studies were on the predecessor formula in carpal tunnel surgery patients, not neuropathy, and I take them apart honestly in my NeuroAxis review.

That Protocol turns a bottle into a plan:

Pillar 1, Nutrition: how to eat to stabilize blood sugar and reduce the metabolic stress that drives most neuropathy, including the nutrients, such as magnesium, that are better covered by diet than by another capsule.

Pillar 2, Lifestyle: exercise, sleep and daily habits, the interventions with the strongest human evidence for nerve fiber regrowth.

Pillar 3, Targeted nutrients: where NeuroAxis fits, how to take it, and how to track whether it is helping.

So the choice comes down to this. Apex Gold hides its doses in a 575 mg proprietary blend and contains no B vitamins, so its label cannot be checked against the research. If you want the core three at trial doses, broader pathway coverage and a step-by-step plan for the nutrition and lifestyle work that does the heaviest lifting, that is what NeuroAxis and the NeuroAxis Protocol are built for. And if you are not sure which fits, book a free 10-minute discovery call and I will tell you honestly.

The Bigger Question: What Is Causing Your Nerve Pain?

No label review answers the most important question, which is why your nerves are misbehaving in the first place. Peripheral neuropathy is damage to nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, and it has well over a hundred causes, including diabetes and prediabetes, B12 and other vitamin deficiencies, thyroid disease, alcohol, chemotherapy, medications, injury and nerve compression. Many of those need cause-specific treatment that no supplement provides. Symptoms in one hand or one foot rather than both, weakness, or rapid progression are reasons to be evaluated promptly, and so is reduced sensation in the feet, which raises the risk of unnoticed pressure sores and burns.

If you are not sure what is driving your symptoms, or whether a supplement makes sense for your situation at all, you can book a free 10-minute nerve health discovery call and talk it through with me directly. Sorting out the likely driver first is how you avoid spending months on the wrong solution.

If you are not sure which tests to ask for, start with which test detects neuropathy. If your blood sugar has been creeping up, read how high blood sugar damages nerves. And for an honest look at what can and cannot be recovered, see can you reverse neuropathy.

If You Are Considering or Taking Apex Gold: A Timeline

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Apex Gold work for neuropathy?

No study has tested Apex Gold itself, so whether it works is unknown. Its label lists alpha-lipoic acid, CoQ10, turmeric and three other ingredients, but five of the six have no disclosed amount, so they cannot be compared with the doses used in research. It contains no B vitamins.

What are the ingredients in Apex Gold?

Per one-capsule serving, the label lists magnesium 80 mg (as magnesium glycinate) and a 575 mg proprietary blend of magnesium glycinate, alpha-lipoic acid, butcher’s broom root extract, L-carnitine, turmeric extract (95% curcuminoids) and CoQ10 (as ubiquinone). Only the magnesium has an individual amount.

How much alpha-lipoic acid is in Apex Gold?

The label does not say. Alpha-lipoic acid is inside the 575 mg blend, and the magnesium glycinate needed to supply 80 mg of magnesium likely takes up 400 to 570 mg of that blend, which leaves little room for the 600 mg dose used in the main neuropathy trial.

Does Apex Gold contain B12 or benfotiamine?

No. The label lists no methylcobalamin, no benfotiamine and no other B vitamins. Those are two of the three best-studied nutrients for nerve support.

What are the side effects of Apex Gold?

The ingredients are generally well tolerated. Magnesium can cause loose stools or cramping, alpha-lipoic acid can cause nausea and lower blood sugar, and turmeric can add to the effect of blood thinners. Talk with your doctor first if you take diabetes, thyroid, blood pressure or blood-thinning medication, or have kidney or gallbladder disease.

Is Apex Gold legit or a scam?

Apex Gold is a real product with a published label, a named distributor in Aurora, Colorado, and checkout through the Digistore24 platform. What cannot be verified is the dose of each blend ingredient, because the label does not disclose it.

What is Apex Gold’s refund policy?

The sales page offers a 60-day money-back guarantee. The written policy counts the 60 days from purchase, requires you to email support first, return all bottles at your own cost, and says that returning only some bottles results in a partial refund.

Is Apex Gold the same as Quiet Nerves?

They list the same six ingredients and use the same price tiers, and both are associated with Aurora, Colorado, but I cannot confirm they are the same product. Apex Gold publishes a label showing the blend total; Quiet Nerves publishes no label.

How much does Apex Gold cost?

On the brand’s site in October 2026, two bottles were $158, three were $207 and six were $294, with no single-bottle option. That is $1.63 to $2.63 a day. The shipping page lists $9.99 shipping on one or two bottles and free shipping on three or more.

Is Apex Gold FDA approved?

No dietary supplement is FDA approved. Supplements may make structure/function claims such as supporting healthy nerve function, but not claims to treat or relieve a disease such as neuropathy.

Apex Gold vs NeuroAxis: what is the difference?

Apex Gold puts its ingredients in a 575 mg proprietary blend, contains no B vitamins and costs $1.63 to $2.63 a day. NeuroAxis, which I formulated, discloses every amount, including 600 mg R-alpha-lipoic acid, 2,000 mcg methylcobalamin and 300 mg benfotiamine, adds NAC, acetyl-L-carnitine, CoQ10, curcumin, bromelain and serrapeptase, and includes the 160-page NeuroAxis Protocol with every order. It costs about $2.00 a day on subscription.
