hello dr. Burke here in this video we’re

going to talk about peripheral

neuropathy now we’re going to relate

this to diabetes there’s other

conditions that you can have it as well

but what is it basically the sensation

of pain burning pain numbness numbness

and tingling or any combination thereof

on your hands or your feet okay and so

what happens in diabetes it’s one of the

symptoms that you want to watch out for

when you start experiencing that it’s

starting to advance a little bit too

deep in the body now the reason why it’s

affecting the hands and the feet first

is simply because those nerves are the

longest so if you envision having this

tube of carrying oxygen and nutrition

the very end of that tube is going to

experience the deficiency burst right

because it has to go all the way over

there same thing with the hands in the

feet now what causes this is the high

levels of sugar in the blood causing

micro vascular injury the body does not

like too much sugar it’s toxic so it

creates very small arterial or vascular

injury to the nervous system so the

blood vessels that feed the nerves

get disrupted okay that’s number one

number two glycated end-products now

what is that that’s just another

mechanism that you have this protein

that’s building up because the high

sugar on the nerves stopping the flow of

nerve impulses okay number three vitamin

b12 deficiency or vitamin b1 deficiency

okay both of those vitamins control the

synthesis of mild in around the nerve

myelin is the kind of the fat insulator

of the nerve just like if you had a wire

you have this plastic or rubber

insulation myelin is the fat insulation

around the nerve well if you don’t have

the b12 or the b1 you’re not going to

make the insulation so that’s going to

go away so you’re going to start

short-circuiting that electrical flow

and start getting all sorts of nerve

issues okay so now what is the solution

well number one you’ve got to fix the

sugar problem which is an insulin

problem I’m going to put some links down

below and secondly you

need to start taking b12 and b1 I would

get those in a fat soluble form in

addition to that you want to also

consume nutritional yeast because

diabetics or people that are

pre-diabetics tend to always have

deficiencies of these two vitamins and a

lot of other ones so you need a little

bit more nutritional yeast you can get

it from any health food store all right
