Neuropathy is defined as a disease or abnormality of the nervous system. These motor sensory and autonomic nerves connect the spinal cord to the skin, muscles, and internal organs. Neuropathy generally presents in the hands and feet as numbness, tingling, burning, and pain. The course of this disorder can vary from a slow progression over a number of years to a rapid onset that is severe and disabling.

Over 20 million Americans suffer from neuropathy with the largest population among older adults. Thirty percent of the cases are attributed to diabetes while another forty percent are caused by nutritional imbalances, toxins, tumors, heredity, or infection. Approximately thirty percent have no known cause.

Successful treatment of neuropathy requires raising cellular levels of glutathione (GTH).  Glutathione is the master antioxidant inside our cells.  It is the orchestra conductor directing the other musicians like vitamin C and ALA which neutralize free radicals that harm our DNA, protein and fat molecules leading to disease and illness.  Agents like vitamin C and ALA are on the front lines, they encounter the free radical first, but after that encounter they need to be regenerated by GTH to work again.   GTH needs to be returned to its reduced or active form after it regenerates vitamin C and ALA.  That is where selenium comes in.  Selenium is a cofactor for glutathione peroxidase, an enzyme that helps manufacture reduced or active glutathione.   N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) is a building block of GTH.  L-carnitine is critical for proper energy metabolism in nerve cells, again ultimately contributing to the proper functioning of GTH.

That is the reason we have included each ingredient in NeuropathyRx®, they are all necessary to achieve the best outcome.  No single chemical works independently inside the human body, they all work together and are dependent upon one another.  We made it our goal to provide these critical nutrients in one convenient package so you don’t have to buy five seperate products.  Lastly, we should point out that you cannot eat glutathione and absorb it.  It is broken down in the digestive process.  The best way to raise your levels is by eating the critical ingredients required for the manufacture and creation of reduced GTH, these ingredients can be found in NeuropathyRx®.
