A Nerve Surgeon Reviews 7 Supplements for Neuropathy
If you've been told there's nothing you can do about your nerve damage, the clinical evidence tells a very different story. Dr. Michael Fitzmaurice — a fellowship-trained peripheral nerve surgeon with 3,000+ nerve procedures — breaks down the seven supplements that have actually been tested in human clinical trials for peripheral neuropathy. What the trials showed, the doses used, and where the evidence is strong versus still developing. This isn't a "take this and you'll be cured" video. It's a clinical look at real mechanisms, real trials, and what the data actually supports.
