I am happy to share this educational video out to the world. It’s always a Blessing to first help the body with natural healing. Pain medications often can lead to many serious side effects. I have listed in the description the brand that I am using, it’s known to have high bioavailability. Please pass this video on to a friend or loved one. Wishing you many healing blessings. 😊❤️🙏
I'M IN A NURSING HOME. I AM 45 YEARS OLD. I HAVE SEVERE NUREPATHY AND FOOT DROP AND CAN'T WALK AND I HAVE A BLOOD CLOT ON RIGHT LEG AND. THIS DOCTOR IN HERE ISN'T HELPING ME I WISH THAT I HAD YOU AS A DOCTOR. THANK YOU FOR HELPING US. GOD NEEDS MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU. I HAVE A FAMILY THAT I HAVE TO GET BACK TOO I CAN'T BE TRAPPED HERE AND NOT WALKING. PLEASE PRAY FOR ME AND MY FAMILY.
Thanks doc, I started on R-ALA 300 mg. One time per day, I started a month ago. After 10 years of brutal pain, my pain level has almost disappeared. Thank you, I am 74 years old.
I have a spinal cord injury in my neck and had a fusion with titanium.I have neuropathy and burning at least 50% of my body I had tried Alpha liopic acid of and on and on for atleast a year and felt nothing until I discovered it has to be R alpha lipoic acid and it absolutely helps.I just discovered Benfotamine I just started it and read takes a week or two to feel effect it is a pre curse of B1 and supposedly safe from all I have researched,I just thought I'd let you know and others interested.
Same age and maladies!! Hey LOL! What source do you use to get R-ALA? iVE ONLY FOUND IT COMBO WITH OTHER supplements not very effective...thanks - and 'keep on truckin.'
@@rathergather2406 May I ask where I can get this? Or is it prescribed? I have had three spine surgeries so far from degenerative disc disease. All three with fusions, 2 bone grafts,one from each hip and a plastic disc, and all three with titanium (2 plates cervical and caging in my lumbar L5S1. I have annoying burning, numbness and tingling in my toes on both feet from neuropathy and would love to try this from a reputable source if it’s not prescribed from a physician. If it does work for me, it sure would bring so much relief at nighttime,when it seems to be at it’s worst!
Dr. Mandell, could you address cervical dystonia and anything that would help this condition. I developed this condition after a cervical laminectomy and fusion two years ago from C1 to T3. Thank you for all the wonderful medical information you provide!!
These are chiropractors, not M.D.s These are not endocrinologists and I would be very, very careful about your reliance on the information that they provide. I'm not saying they don't know, but their licenses authorize them to practice SUBLUXATION.....not "all things medical" unless it is through subluxation. But it's a worrisome trend these past 10 years to have chiropractors charging people $10,000 and offer to help them 'reverse' type II diabetes. That's the practice of endocrinology. Just verify.
Dr. Mandel you are excellent teacher. I was teacher in two universities. I’m retired. In my opinion, a good teacher must have three essential characteristic: 1st, subject knowledge, 2nd, enthusiasm, 3rd language resources, body language, good expression, precision, going directly to the point…. The goal: His students must learn. I’m lucky having you in RUclips. Thanks.
Doc, after starting R-ALA I started sensing a HORRIBLE odor in my urine. Two days later I got spasms in my back that prevented me from walking normally. I pushed through and feel that as a chelator, the lipoic acid pulled something out of my kidneys, hence the horrible spasms. A few weeks later I realized I was loosing fat in my mid section, no more kidney spasms, and I could stand tall and not hunched over. When exercising my muscles feel fuller whereas I just felt myself damaging my muscles when I “worked out”. My skin looks simply awesome too. I’m an IED sharpnel survivor, and if this compound helped me and is relieving me of pain, I urge everyone with nerve pain to try it and have faith in our beautiful father, God almighty.
@@majeedmohamed9523 sorry guys. I’m taking 140 mg with a pre workout first time in the morning, along with benfotimine, methylcobalamine, piridoxine and nicotinamide, on an empty stomach. Another 140 mg at dinner. The brand I’m using is Allmax but I purchased Life Extension brand too and it seems to work as well, but it’s a heavier dose, and I don’t want to build tolerance or something. I was taking those vitamins before and the lipoic acid was what made all the difference in the world. It made every other nutrient work! I swear it was a miracle to me, I’m experiencing less and less and less pain every day. Even my family is at awe, because even though I don’t complain and live a “normal” life they watch my spasmic way of walking and the pain reflecting in my face. May you find relief guys, my sincere best wishes 🙌🏻
Thank You for being here ...I have Peripheral Neuropathy and have been taking ALA for 2 months and the pain and tingling are gone and I am improving everyday....God Bless You
@@Babsza It is only assimilated by eating vegetables & fruits and some meats. Like the minerals found in water ... Your bodies do Not assimilate these from water, only food.
I am sitting here in tears at this timely information for my neuropathy. My doctors never addressed it and now I am in tough shape. Thank you for your love and help to many. May Father God continue to bless you and use you! Thank you kindly dear friend.
Anti depressants, cut out sugar (low carb diet, and very healthy diet), and exercise daily, co-codemal (when required). Worked for me and I was in a bad way with neuropathic pain, and didn't respond well to injections. Best wishes from Ireland, for a happy ,pain free life ! (Forgot to mention, I take vitamin D3, B complex vitamins, selenium, COQ10, Magnesium citrate, Omega 3 supplement, and I eat in a four hour window ,all on a daily basis),(no booze or cigarettes, either). (I also meditate for 2.5 hours per day and flee from stressful scenes ,or stressful people). Best wishes to all fellow humans and especially the ones, who know what neuropathic pain is !
I recently learned that there is 3 different types of ALA. Type R, Type S and Type RS. S is a synthetically made version and RS is a blend of natural ALA and synthetic ALA. Both types S & RS should be avoided as the body doesn’t absorb either type very well. Type R is 100% organic/natural. This type gets fully absorbed by the body. If you use supplements, read the back label to see what type of ALA is used. Even if it states Alpha Lipoic Acid, it’s synthetic. The label should show “R-Alpha Lipoic Acid”. You can also determine which type it is by the cost. If it’s type R, it will cost substantially more than types S or RS. I hope this helps
@@gailwebb8156 I got mine online. At Best Price Nutrition. Type R-ALA. It was 49.95 per bottle. Type R cost more because it’s a natural product and takes longer to produce. It has 100% absorption
You are 100% correct! ✅ I was diagnosed with MS and I immediately started taking Alpha Lipoic Acid. I also took the 3 B’s, Vitamin D, Magnesium, Turmeric, Fish Oil and ate pineapples. I believe this saved me! The neurologists are now saying they don’t see any plaques at all on my myelin sheath. You are providing excellent advice! Also stay away from sugar.
Can I ask what type of Alpha Lipoic Acid you have been taking? How long were you taking them before you noticed them helping you? I have been taking them for three months and havn't felt any difference with them so maybe I'm not taking the right ones. I hope you don't mind me asking you this. Thanks in advance.
I wish I saw this 14 yrs ago when the doctor didn't know why my mom was getting nerve damage. Not able to walk any longer. She passed at 82 yrs. If doctors took nutritional classes maybe more patients would be alive. We must be our own advocates. God help us.👍🥰🙏
There is no money or profit incentive in nutritional therapy...we get sick care industry n not healthcare instead!we get doctors more like drug agents 4 big pharma n one size fit all prescriptions. Iur bodies n needs are not d same...
I began taking R-Alpha-lipoic acid as a supplement in 2013. My peripheral neuropathy was in my entire body. When I began taking it I had two toes on each foot that I could wiggle. Now all my toes are working fine. It took five months of taking it on faith before I began to see major improvements. I will continue to take it until I die.
@@alsahib3768Yep. That’s the best one. I’m surprised the doctor didn’t mention this. The S is synthetic and doesn’t work as good from all the research I’ve done.
Thank u so much,am a beneficiary to your lectures.I have been suffering from neuropathy for 4.5 years,my pain was excruciating while walking,getting out bed too after a good night sleep.Just exactly after 3 weeks of trying your vitamins prescribed am 70% pain free.I have been taking prescription pain meds for years no relief ,am greatfull for your teaching.May God reward u for restoring my sanity& zest for living.I was really despondent & thinking about surgery which is scary.
Dear Heavenly Father please keep this humble doctor alive to see his fourth Generation as this is your plan/wish for us in Jesus name. Amen. And as a bonus, we'll continue to enjoy his wealth of expertise. Thank you DOCTOR! You are THE Doctor in my book.
Has anyone told you how much they love you today??? I certainly do and I cannot tell you how grateful I am for all the knowledge you extend to us!! You are such a BLESSING!!! Thank you so much!!!
As a person who was told I would never walk regularly if at all again in 2004 but when I began to not take pain meds regularly and took alternatives along with vitamins like this I Now walk and even do light construction work occasionally. This Dr shares hope and I also want people to have hope, life is so precious and short. Live by Joy not darkness so all is well with you inside yourself
@@staceysalazar6993 low CBD high THC cannabis in bong puffs ..along with low meat intake and few supplements like black seed oil and Bromelain pineapple exact ...careful with Bromelain as dangerous to mix with Aspirin or blood thinners
This why the American and Western medical schools does not include Nutrition training in their programs. The old saying " A ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure " is a very true statement .
Your sort of correct and i say it this way because things are a changing _ We now have Lifestyle Medicine of which western medicine doctors including this in their practice all have a very comprehensive knowledge of nutrition _ And they better as this is the main protocol of "curing" their patient's medical conditions _ Cornell University is the key spot for LM and these plant-based nutritional accredited studies _ A little side note - It was the PRMC, Physicians for Responsible Medicine Committee, which is made up of Lifestyle Medicine doctors; that met with the FDA resulting in changing the dietary recommendations on the Food Pyramid (Standard American Diet) daily nutritional recommendations several years ago into the My Plate _ It was a negotiation as PRMC did not get all the changes they wanted and the FDA relinquished more than planned because the medical science presented by the PRMC was sourced from renown top medical journals - Also this is reviewed every five years for revising as a standard FDA practice.
I think that statement is more pronounced in countries with private Healthcare. 🤔 In other countries there are so many regulations and stipulations of recommendations on anything. The practitioners don't get paid in any way by big pharma so they have a tendency to go to peer reviews and data.
@@drcandor yes and thank you for acknowledging that western medicine need to catch up and in the process of eastern medicine is doing for the wellness of patients. I'm only critical of profit system that was put in place by J.P. Morgan and his cronies that stopped Rife and Tesla plus the nutritionists back then. And thank you for replying to me
I reduced my white sugar intake (candy, cookies, doughnuts, cake, ice cream, soda, etc.) and my symptoms decreased by 95%. I now understand I can never go back to eating foods that contain high refined sugar. The natural sugars in fruits have not caused any adverse problems for me. I eat lots of fruit with no problems.
Oh My God...two weeks my aunt back homes was asking me about if I know a good supplement for diabetic nerves pain...and here you are giving us informations related to that matter.I will Pray for you doctor ...May God Bless You Every Day You Wake Up.May You Live A Long Healthy Life full of Laughters.
How about your aunt address her diabetes better before it gets worse? Get her a consultation with a medical doctor and nutritionist instead of listening to a chiropractor on youtube.
Just not sure why 19 people have clicked on the thumbs down? I would think this wonderful doctor knows alot more than we do. Thank U sir for your videos. So much appreciated.
There are always a few morons who probably have very poor comprehensive skills and don't really understand what he's saying. My podiatrist said there's no hope for my pain in the foot without removing the bad nerve surgically so I'm definitely going to give this a try if this works it seems like a miracle
Dr.Mandell is the best doctor in the world!!! You saved me from neuropathy and from diabetes!!! Thank you very much for your great work and your big heart ❤️ God bless you and give you long healthy life!!!❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
@@sungpitI bought NA R-Alpha Lipoic Acid 600 mg IMMUNOVITES brand name 1 capsule a day+ b complex vitamins!!! Took for 3 months and stop for 3 weeks and when again took it!!!

It’s will not help you if you will not change your diet!!! Combination of keto!!! Low carb and no sugar!!! I’m on all this supplements and diet for more then 3.5 years!!!
Some friends wonder why I know so much about the body. Answer: I stay educated watching Dr. Mandell on RUclips motivationaldoc videos! The best defense is to stay in the know. Thank you Dr. M. You are loved ♥️. Blessings back to you for all your caring.
I recently came across Alpha-Lipoic Acid. After 3 weeks I was able to sleep without pain in my feet. Because of it, I also notice the tension spasm in my head have disappear. Good Stuff, Doc..
He is right...I had nerve itching and tingling in my feet...went to school on it, online, and learned about ALA...totally solved the problem. It was miserable at the time...interfered with sleeping, packed my feet with ice bags to get some relief till I discovered the ALA. Now, at the first sign of even the slightest symptom...I take 600mg. Works completely.
@josephmartin5483 not sure you will see this, joe, but for me it kicked in after maybe a week....need to have it build up a little in your system, then...WOW. you will be amazed.
I am home. I had to resign from my job because I all the symptoms mentioned here. Thanks, Doctor Mandell, for this information. I am tired of hurting, and I want my life back. I wish everyone listening or reading this information all the best. 💯 great health to all. Much love ❤️ as always.
I enjoyed this video because I have nerve damage from a severely compressed spinal cord surgery 8-31-21 and the right side of my body is still numb. I am very aggravated and have restless nights due to the burning sensation. I am going to take heed to your advice and trust God for complete healing!😢😢🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hi Pamela. I, too, had surgery for severely depressed, spinal cord and my body is still numb and the right side is worse than the left. Have you started taking this supplement? Have you noticed anything else that might work? I’ve tried just about everything at this point.
And quit all sugary junk food ! I had neck surgery and was on neurontin for many years until I changed my diet. No sugar, low carbs. Just meat and veggies and healthy fats. No longer need those meds 😊
I’m watching this two yr old video. God almighty will bless you as many times as people watch you give solutions to their health issue. Dr Mandell you must be very close to the almighty. Thanks
I have come to trust this man on the other side of the world because i cannot trust my own allopathic 'doctor'. I am 64 and everything i have tried from this man has had a noticeably positive effect. Many thanks Doc!
Thank u doctor, I am going to try this, I pray that I can get this in Durban South Africa, I am suffering now for almost 6 years with what the spine doctor says, nerve is trapped under the disc. Pinched nerve. The pain is cruciating. I am also diabetic. Thank u doctor, God bless u
I want to thank you Dr Mandel. Some time ago I was struck by lightning like, random pain. This continued for some time but eventually I was left with pain in the nerves in my legs. This kept me awake at night and restless legs became a horrible feature of my life. I purchased some alpha lipolic acid and then over a period of time forgot that I had a problem. So it works, restless legs was not particularly mentioned but the shocking pains and the restlessness have gone. I can’t thank you enough.
I had a fall and my nerves at the back of the knee were pressed four months ago. Physio therepist tried with stimulating it. and there is improvement.but my toes are not getting. sensation., because of foot drop. I am using Walker. Please suggest good and effective treatment. Thank you so much.
@@vimaldhalwani6827 I've read some use DMSO, cayenne creams or make your own(apply with gloves only), castor oil packs, or other over the counter rubs or warm foot baths. These things are a trial and error thing. Everyone is different. You could also ask your pharmacist. The poster above also recommended alpha lipoic acid, Vimal....
I'm in week 4 after shingles. I'm struggling with nerve aggravation. Itching and pain. Thank you so much Dr. Mandel. No doctors are saying what you teach and you're a blessing.
My son is in week 8 of a severe shingles attack on his head forehead and eyelid. The shingles blisters are healing well and he is left with numbness and serious fatigue. He has been eating many of the foods suggested and maybe will try the supplement. I have heard that acupuncture helps. Try lidocaine to help with your itching, etc. I hope you feel better soon.
You truly are a blessing from God. My dad suffered from neuropathy for years (was not diabetic) went to major hospitals in Boston and NOT 1 doctor ever told him to take alpha lipoc acid but instead prescribed toxic pharma drugs. Thank you for your information

You neglected to mention cancer. I have HER2+ breast cancer and my neuropathy is SO bad! Thank you for this video. I’m gonna try and pray it eases some of my symptoms.
Dr Mandela Thank You !! Thank You. for sharing the Neuropaphy video. I came across it on u-tube. I have had motor neuropathy for twelve years. I have been told nothing could been medically done for me. It has left me in a very difficult place in my life …My walking mostly. All though I do have other symptoms as numbness in my feet, legs, and it is moving up to my upper body … I have turned to My Heavenly Father, as I know he knows my need in this situation…. To night my prayers have been answered. Thank You Heavenly Father. And I thank you also for your concern for others Doctor Mandela .. May you be Blessed as You Bless others.. Ms. J. N. Sweet
I checked with both of my doctors and both said ALA is safe for me to take so I started on it recently. I have some of the symptoms mentioned. Thank you Dr Mandell. Your suggestions for sinus and bronchial issues had been life changing for me. You are very kind for caring about others to make all these videos to help us improve our health and lives.
Trust me when I say fo carnivore. Plants are full of oxalates which are built in poisons that cause us damage. All plants hurt us. They are not food they block our vitimins.ins and minerals and the lack of b vitimins cause neuropathy and MS. I tested this out myself and it's true, look it up. The sugars in plants turn to crystallized glass and cut u within and then your immune system responds and thus inflammation. We are carnivores, nothing more. Plants inflame period.
Happy to see that there are many good people who like to help people suffering from many diseases. I appreciate your efforts to educate people medically rather than traditionally. Your videos are a sigh of relief for depressed people.
I was having leg cramps multiple times a night. With my doctor's approval I started taking ALA. They have stopped completely. I think my neuropathy is also improving. Starting my second bottle
My dog hurt his back and couldn’t walk behind for 5 months or so but I started him on ALA for a few weeks and he was able to start walking again on his own. I also took him to chiropractor visits. Maybe he just healed by time but it sure seemed to help. It was a miracle he got to enjoy another Christmas and walk around on his own before he passed awhile later from heart issues.
Depends on the spinal injury. Some can only be fixed with surgery. We had one that had to have an emergency op, and another that started walking again after crate rest, physiotherapy, Valium, anti inflammatory and pain killers. They are on a natural dog food diet - balanced raw, so naturally have all the necessary nutrients, without the harmful effects of kibble.
@@LAllan-ls5er Thank you ! For about a week i was tough but we figured it out and wasn't that hard. I carried the back end and he walked up front to go to the bathroom. We never changed routines and he still road everywhere. One day after i saw he had been standing on the bed and was standing at the door when i came inside i finally let him free, after we made it outside and he walked to a bush and peed...he gradually got stronger and by Christmas he was doing a dance... i videotaped it. Best video ever.
What is this god thing all the time with you americans !! Religion and medicine might both have a role in wellness !!!But they are entirely separate entities. A doctor is just a bloke with a bit more knowledge (not a lot) than the rest of us !!!! Next best thing to a god he most certainly is not !!!!!
I just started a deep dive on myelin sheath repair and I’m really grateful I found this video. I stated taking dedicated beef organs a few months ago and I could not believe the impact. I don’t trust brands any longer in supplements so I cycle between brands. I was unaware that I may already be improving the myelin. I’ve been tested for MS and Lupus but not diagnosed (not enough markers) so I jumped in to taking extra good care of my body - I’m 7.5 years into low carb/high fat and reversed all the symptoms except neuropathy and some pain at an injury site. The organs have really helped.
We really need to reread our comments AFTER we post them to make certain they say what we intended. In my experience, sometimes auto-correct changes words, and the meaning is then wrong. Rereading also gives an opportunity to correct grammar and spelling.
I just want you to know I saw this video when it first came out. I am a pre-diabetic who suffered from peripheral neuropathy. I saw this. I took your advice and started ALA. After the FIRST pill, the pain disappeared. And hasn't come back! Now I take 600mg ALA every day. I don't know if there are words sufficient to thank you enough.
@@andrewbrown12 Thanks for the info, yeah I didn't know about the two different types either till I was reading up on ALA but good to know that the regular ALA type also work 😀
Thank you , my Neurologist told me I had nerve damage in my left leg and I can't walk hardly. But she did nothing to treat me. So glad I found your video. Going to order the supplement.
Ok, i have to give testimony that i have a severely damaged spine that has had me taking copious dosages of narcotic pain medication for over 25 years. As I age my condition does not improve it only continues to decline. My mind will not accept this so i went on a path to my OWN healing. Alpha Lipoic Acid (taken with cayenne pepper ...loose in water) first thing in the morning along with my coffee and bovine collagen HAS begun to change my body! My supplements are "my own" and i suggest you all do your own research best suited to your needs/body but THIS advice he gives IS solid and can be trusted. Be blessed
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Dr Mandell,you are simply amazing!! I'm in the UK 🇬🇧 and have sent this video (and many others) to my family in South Africa 🇿🇦 . I'm hoping and praying that this video would help my Father's peripheral neuropathy in his feet. And I myself have started following lots of the advice you're giving in your many videos so that I can become healthier again. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do for people all over the world! You are literally changes the lifes of millions and millions of people worldwide 🌐 🌎 ❤ ❤❤
It took the doctors 4 hole years to say I've got a trapped nerve in my knee fast forward 3 years my left leg still goes numb and the back pain continues I am actually trying to heal myself from education videos thank you
I have been viewing this wonderful Dr for weeks now. I have had been to numerous physicians for chronic right side neck and shoulder pain. Doctor Mandels videos has helped a great deal. But a day ago I all of a sudden had trouble walking, my legs just wanted to buckle, and sent me to the ER. The physicians there as always did the typical tests that they do,and said that I may have MS. The Dr there put me on Gabapetin, and recommended a neurologist for tests. I do not think I have MS, because I still have pain in my right neck and shoulder. I am not a prescription popper, refuse to take what they prescribe, I have a bulging disc,and mild degeneration because of my age. I prefer doing things natural. Dr Mendel has made me feel better just knowing that there are physicians in this world that truly want to help people. God Bless you Sir...
Dr. Mandell you are a blessing for me. I’ve been following you for several years and not commented before (I’m sorry). I’ve been a type II diabetic since 2003. Told it was a progressive disease, incurable and destructive. I’ve taken numerous medications to control my blood sugars, advancing to insulin approximately 10 years ago. Metformin did not work on me,but I noticed if I ate anything high in carbs I would get severe diarrhea. I was also obese. I studied intermittent fasting and a reactive food diet which resulted in a 60 lb weight loss. I still took the metformin and insulin and struggled to get my A1c below 9.0 I developed neuropathy and noticed vision changes. My allopathic Dr told me everything wrong with me was due to my uncontrolled blood sugars. I got angry and frustrated. This is the same time I found this video and learned about alpha lipoic acid. I followed your recommendation the past six months and the results are shocking to me. Within the first 30 days my glucose average went from over 200 to less than 100. The pain from nerves in my body has minimized as has the numbness in my feet and hands. The best part of all? I stopped taking the metformin after the first week on ALA. My insulin dosage has dropped from 50 units per day to 5 - 20 units. I do not consume any artificial sweeteners. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, less meat protein and if I want sugar it is made with natural pure cane sugar, no corn syrup or stevia. Your advice has reversed the decline I was experiencing and empowered me beyond what the current medical profession appears to rely on…. Prescription drugs to treat the symptoms instead of finding and treating the source of the illness.
@@nishavishwkarma4052 you rarely hear back from these people who are planted to tell their BS stories, speaks volumes about the content of the video and the claims made which are done to make the author tons of money.
@@nishavishwkarma4052 I am not one of those BS stories as has been suggested. I received a notice today there was a reply posted to me from Butter Gurls and happened upon your request for me. My diet focuses on low complex carbs (minimal processed food if any), with a foundation of natural proteins (beef, fish, chicken and eggs). I drink at least 4 to 6 pints of water daily. Breakfast/lunch (I normally eat two meals per day max) is typically 2 poached eggs on Killer Dave multigrain thin slice bread or I will eat a bowl of McCanns steel cut oatmeal with raisins or dates, plus a handful of NuTrail Keto granola (pretty much nuts and coconut). I use whipping cream in my coffee and Irish butter on my toast. Dinner will likely be a meat or fish protein, vegetables and salads. Snacks are fresh fruit (berries, apple, citrus, a banana or grapes), Costco mixed deluxe nuts (no peanuts), dried beef jerky and spicy pork rinds.
I love the way you explain everything, it's 100% comprehendable! I used to fall asleep in anatomy and physiology classes, but as you explain, it comes rushing back, and that was over 30 years ago! I've actually learned and retained more crucial information from your videos than in those courses. I knew more than enough for my profession ss a dental hygienist, but as our goal was prevention, I wish I'd known what you're teaching us today. I'm retired, but it's not too late to help myself and others with the invaluable information you so enthusiastically and thoroughly pass on to us from the goodness of your heart. I really can't thank you enough! But I'll try by doing what you ask us at the end of every amazing video, share it to others who need it! ❤❤❤
I'm a paraplegic. Many of us suffer from extremely dibilitating levels of nueropathy. Never, have any of my doctors suggested this. They just want to prescribe meds that don't work and have horrible side-effects. I'm going to try this! I'm sick of the pain!
How long have you suffered I heard it can also be a b12 deficiency you have to get tested for active b12 not just b12 I await your response I pray you heal in Jesus precious name
They are not really DR They are naturopathy or chiropractor try to sell they natural product no recognise by medical association be aware of they advice not fit for all
I suffer from peripheral neuropathy from b6 toxicity.....get your b6 level of the blood checked. I hope this helps someone! May God almighty heal all of us to live a more healthy, fulfilled life.
I was taking it for my skin and I started feeling less pain. Then I saw your video and that really helped me understand. You see I have suffered with pain head to toe since I was in my twenties & I wish I had known this then. I’m now 72 & for the first time ever I don’t hurt. Thank you!
Thank God we now have so much information throu our internet and definitely includes Dr. Mandel I am so thankful and happy at your age and not having pain Creator is amazing He speaks to us throu other humans ❤ hope you stay pain free forever U deserve it ❤
I started taking this 2.5 weeks ago after experiencing peripheral neuropathy as a result of long covid and its already helping tremendously. Absolutely worth incorporating into your diet!
isn't it amazing??? i started with 600 mg as dr. mandell mentioned, but upped to 1200 for best results. like 98 percent gone. i am on my 2nd bottle from "dr's. best". i also take standard process version of black currant seed oil. amazing. aren't we lucky to have this dr. here, sharing all this wealth of knowledge with us?
Honestly this has to be the best Dr. by far. The information and the way he explains it all is just amazing. We need more of these Drs in the world and not those that only write prescriptions for pain killer drugs 👍
The best doctor? He is not a medical doctor..How can he be the best when he does not even warn people who are on medications and how certain products can interfere with meds? Careless.
@@tala4746 Are you telling me that he is a qualified medical doctor?...I am in England. My doctor does not just keep writing perscriptions out. We have a different system
Can someone please help me with my question? I have bought a bottle of Alpha Lipoic Acid but it says that it can interfere with blood sugar levels, does Alpha Lipoic Acid and R-Alpha Lipoic Acid lower blood sugar levels? And can you get diabetes from Alpha Lipoic Acid ? And I heard that only the R-Alpha Lipoic Acid works but not the Alpha Lipoic Acid, is that true? The bottles of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid and Alpha Lipoic Acid contain capsules of 100 mg of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid and of Alpha Lipoic Acid . But in it is written to take 1 capsule per day. But dr Mandell says we have to take 300-600 mg per day, so is it safe to take 6 capsules per day of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid or Alpha Lipoic Acid because I want 600 mg of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid or Alpha Lipoic Acid per day ? Thank you very much!!!
R-ALA has turned my life around. My foot pain has reduced by 70 % after the first time taking it. I have had neuropathy for 15 yrs only sleeping for about 3 hrs a night because of the pain. Sometimes going 2 or 3 times a week with no sleep. I’m 70 now and can spend the rest of my life almost pain free. Also, I have quit taking the fibromyalgia meds that I’ve been on for 30 yrs with virtually no fibro symptoms now. Thank you Lord. 🙏
Love Egypt vitamins are nutritional parts of foods that our bodies need to stay healthy. The nutritional parts are usually taken out of foods and put into pills that you can swallow.
Love how you went straight to the point. Many don’t! I have MS and experience numbness, tingling, and have issues walking. Going to watch some more of your videos and try it out. I do still walk, with two canes, and I would like to walk my trash can to to curb on Tuesday’s and be strong enough to walk my son out on the court for senior night. Thanks for this info and All Power to the Most High Yah!
Have you been checked for lyme and mold by a functional doctor? Ms is usually fungus/viruses/lyme disease and mold infections in the body. MS IS 100% reversible. I would see a functional doctor and get a bioscan
I have had ms for 26 years too. I find vit D3 and K2, R alpha lipoid acid 600 a day and vit E 400 a day are important. Since I also have Lyme disease vit D3 receptors are blocked. I need to take a much higher dose of 40 000 iUs twice or three times a week. I take K2 600 mcg to help the proper absorption at the same time. Best wishes
Love Dr . Listen everyday. He is the only one on u tube that addresses every health issue and gets to the point in less than 10 minutes!!! Every other health video has you listening forever and you still never hear the “ healing “ advice. They loose me after a couple of min. I have learned so much from Dr and it’s quick and spot on !, thank you !,
Dear hello, I have the same symptoms as you. I have hot feet, tingling and paresthesia in the feet. Most of the doctors are idiots. They did not understand what was wrong. I went to a neurologist and disc doctor. They told me that you do not have a disc or other diseases in my back ... but I suffer from hot feet in summer and in winter I get cold feet and I checked vitamin B12 There was a normal and good examination. I went to an internist. He did an examination for me, including diabetes and gout. Nothing came of it. I said, I think you have problems with the peripheral nerves. What do you advise me to do now if I take alpha lipoic acid? I will not be affected by it. I will benefit from it if I take it, and what dose do you take and for how long?
This is a blessing. Started on this a month ago after nearly 2 years of severe shoulder pain from a neck injury and post cervical surgery. I am practically pain free. I also started mobilising the area with strength training as well. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Jay Bee ...use this time saving setting/ feature for a lot of vids I just need faster overall info- I can always pause or slow back down / rewatch after that - I got the suggestion awhile back from someone commenting too, great advice!
Thank you Dr. Mandell. I needed to hear this. I'm Type 2 and have problem with diabetic neuropathy in my feet and hands. You are such a blessing and I thank God for you. Much blessings to you.
You might want to try B1 also, I had neuropathic type pain in legs and tried higher doses of B1 that I actually got an prescription for it and I feel it helped as the issue is practically gone now. I can't guarantee it was the B1 and not something else that I did, but I would suggest B1 and walking daily 30min to 1h to see if it helps.
@@cyberfunk3793 The specific kind of B1 is benfotiamine, that is what you need. It's a synthetic fat soluble vitamin. Supplement with both of these supplements for a larger effect.
@@rickd438 I haven't had this problem for a long time anymore and just take regular B1 with multivitamins now. When I had the prescription it was benfotiamine with a very high dose.
Thanks Doc! I've been taking Alpha Lipoic for a while. Due to a psychiatrists show on public television. Now you've explained in detail the pathology and benefits! Everyone watch this video (all his videos!) to the end. The foods especially we should be consuming. And dear God remove all sugars We can!
@@larryj1048 Dr. Mandell told us about a supplement that may help us with our health. He doesn’t make any money from the supplement company at all by promoting it. He does get paid (some sort of system) by Google for his videos. He is a caring person having an enormous amount of love and empathy for all people. His unique teaching ability to relate and communicate to others has helped millions of people all over the world with their health problems. Although his videos are usually short it involves a huge amount of time and effort to research and make the presentation. I believe his motivation to help others has developed into an amazing hobby which has him smiling all the way to the bank.😊 Awesome! Pharmaceuticals and jealous others might not celebrate his success, but most of us say “Yay for you Dr. Mandell! And thanks for all you do!🙏😘🤗🌻
@Gladio Light No! 🤣 Are you kidding me? Why would you ask me that? Did I lay it on too thick for Dr. Mandell? It just bothers me that some try to discredit or make fun of him. I can’t remember exactly what was said, but if I remember correctly someone was commending Dr. Mandell for being so kind about giving us such good health advice and then not pushing or selling some kind of product at the end of his videos, like most people do. Then some guy (he may be a nice person just joking around) said something like “But he just did”. So, I got started with my defense for Dr. Mandell. Because I’m grateful when he recommends herbs and supplements for us to take for our ailments. I’ve had many health problems and spent loads of money with flakey wellness type caregivers and got nothing in return. I don’t have the funds to do that anymore since my divorce. I had a crooked lawyer and a greedy ex, so they did the usual “under the table” type deal. I’m going on 75 years old and I was married to him for 40 years. The good Lord always takes care of His children and He will never forsake me.
I was experiencing nerve pain on my outer thigh, feet and lower back. My doc prescribed ton of pills and physical therapy. I did not fill prescription for pills. I said “no” I’m not going that route. Physical therapy? I gave it 2 weeks. The therapist was a joke! He was too busy with other patients or he didn’t know what exercises to recommend. I did a lot of research and stumbled on ALA and start we’d d taking. Voila!!! I have steadily improved with pain and so happy to tell everyone to go my route! Thank you, Dr. Mandell. I will share your video! You are spot on! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Dr Mandell, I have been diagnosed with Neuropathy. I’ve been told there is no cure⁉️ However, I’ve been on a quest to find ALTERNATIVES. This video give me resources to help with the Neuropathy. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Started taking ALA three weeks ago and am thrilled by the results to date. My feet are much less numb when walking barefoot around the house. I can feel the cold tiles on the bottom of my feet again! Strangely, when walking in shoes, the numbness, although greatly reduced, is still noticeable but I've lost the fear that I'll stumble at any second. Dr. Mandell is an incredibly accurate diagnostician (and a generous soul for sharing), my go-to health resource on RUclips and Facebook. Thanks a million, Doc!
100% accurate! I started to have numbness, tingling, and horrible itching in my thumb, which then started spread to the rest of my palm. I've been taking ALA for a few months, and it's completely gone away 😊.
He kept learning about how the body heals rather than which synthesized med to push for which symptoms and which to push for the resulting side effects in order to get paid by pharma.
God has Blessed Dr. Mandell to be Hos instrument to God's Ways of healing..I do believe Our gracious Lord God Does moy want all these CHEMICALS in our bodies.. Isaiah 55 KJV GIVE ALL GLORY TO GOD ..FOR SO GREAT A GIFT.. AMEN
Um, no, he is not God. But Jesus is. He is The Way, The Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father but by Him. Whosoever shall call upon His name shall be saved!
Oh they could explain it they just get paid not too. They are not taking the oath of Healing they are taking the oath of supporting Big Pharma,they think they have to do this to make money it is all BS look up Natural healing and herbal healings to get the best healing for your body.
I have neuropathy from chemotherapy, especially in the top half of my feet. I hope this will help that! I’ll be getting some. I do eat red meat, broccoli, baby spinach, peas and potatoes, but maybe not enough. I do take B-6 and the D, but I’ll take any help I can get. Just found this Dr. And am taking some of his drinks for various things, and so far I’m loving it! Thanks Dr.!
My present doctor has not suggested any solution to my foot neuropathy, he strictly follows the big Pharma approach...and I so thankful that you don't. I praise God for you and your desire to share the truth.
Thanks, I already use alpha lipoic acid and vitamin b12 for about a month, bought a juicer to meet ncrease nutrient intake, will ask the doc for a vitamin b shot tomorrow. In a month my legs have improved massively, from numbing upto my thighs and now mostly only my toes, thanks
Doctors generally just get "that look" on their face and say "there's nothing we can do". End of appointment (and this after waiting 6 months to get a phone consultation!)
Being a diebetic l trust in all the advices of Dr Mandell.He cares so much for everyone's health.You are a blessing for us Dr Mandell.God will always protect you and your family.Thank you so much. 🙏🙏
Can someone please help me with my question? I have bought one bottle of ALA, but it says that it can increase blood sugar levels. And I have heard that sugar is bad for the brain. So is ALA bad for someone who has MS ? And can you get diabetes from ALA ? Thank you very much!
This gave me so much hope! I’m going to go buy some now. I’ve been having pain in both of my legs for a month and a half. I’m praying this will take the pain away 🙏
God bless you Dr. Mendel you surely are a gift for humankind, last night I was able to sleep the full night and I was able to stand up without pain or moving in a certain way to avoid the pain in my sciatic nerve, I didn’t have the usual cramps in my legs at night, I only woke up because my wife have set the alarm, so, once awaken the first think I wanted to do is coming to my computer to thank you and now that I did it I will take my alpha lipoic acid and I will go back to sleep just because it feels so good. Thank you very much! I thank God to put you in my way and I wish God to bless you in abundance. Thank you again and again and again
update. i now take alpha lipoic acid once daily and after a month my glucose sugar levels dropped to normal range and some of the pains i use to have left me... thank you Dr Mandell :)

Bummer
what a waste of good resources, then.
Do you know that Pharma Mafia WHO and Fauci will not like it humans are the best customers for Pharma mafia
And one of the kindest persons alive
Thanks doc, I started on R-ALA 300 mg. One time per day, I started a month ago. After 10 years of brutal pain, my pain level has almost disappeared. Thank you, I am 74 years old.
I have a spinal cord injury in my neck and had a fusion with titanium.I have neuropathy and burning at least 50% of my body I had tried Alpha liopic acid of and on and on for atleast a year and felt nothing until I discovered it has to be R alpha lipoic acid and it absolutely helps.I just discovered Benfotamine I just started it and read takes a week or two to feel effect it is a pre curse of B1 and supposedly safe from all I have researched,I just thought I'd let you know and others interested.
Same age and maladies!! Hey LOL! What source do you use to get R-ALA?
iVE ONLY FOUND IT COMBO WITH OTHER supplements not very effective...thanks - and 'keep on truckin.'
@@rathergather2406 May I ask where I can get this? Or is it prescribed? I have had three spine surgeries so far from degenerative disc disease. All three with fusions, 2 bone grafts,one from each hip and a plastic disc, and all three with titanium (2 plates cervical and caging in my lumbar L5S1. I have annoying burning, numbness and tingling in my toes on both feet from neuropathy and would love to try this from a reputable source if it’s not prescribed from a physician. If it does work for me, it sure would bring so much relief at nighttime,when it seems to be at it’s worst!
R-ALPHA LIPOIC ACID FAR BETTER healing nerve damage you are right. Many nerve drs recommend
Woo hoo !!! The right supplements work!!!
Drs. Mandell
Eric Berg
and Ken Berry
These are the pioneers in bringing this information public!!!
Yes! Try Dr. John Bergman as well.
Dr mark hyman as well! I agree, Love dr Eric Berg too!
Dr. Mandell, could you address cervical dystonia and anything that would help this condition. I developed this condition after a cervical laminectomy and fusion two years ago from C1 to T3. Thank you for all the wonderful medical information you provide!!
Please add Drs. Pradip Jamnadas and Jason Fung to your list. Absolutely a wonderful list you have, there!
These are chiropractors, not M.D.s These are not endocrinologists and I would be very, very careful about your reliance on the information that they provide. I'm not saying they don't know, but their licenses authorize them to practice SUBLUXATION.....not "all things medical" unless it is through subluxation. But it's a worrisome trend these past 10 years to have chiropractors charging people $10,000 and offer to help them 'reverse' type II diabetes. That's the practice of endocrinology. Just verify.
Dr. Mandel you are excellent teacher. I was teacher in two universities. I’m retired. In my opinion, a good teacher must have three essential characteristic: 1st, subject knowledge, 2nd, enthusiasm, 3rd language resources, body language, good expression, precision, going directly to the point…. The goal: His students must learn.
I’m lucky having you in RUclips. Thanks.
Doc, after starting R-ALA I started sensing a HORRIBLE odor in my urine. Two days later I got spasms in my back that prevented me from walking normally. I pushed through and feel that as a chelator, the lipoic acid pulled something out of my kidneys, hence the horrible spasms. A few weeks later I realized I was loosing fat in my mid section, no more kidney spasms, and I could stand tall and not hunched over. When exercising my muscles feel fuller whereas I just felt myself damaging my muscles when I “worked out”.
My skin looks simply awesome too.
I’m an IED sharpnel survivor, and if this compound helped me and is relieving me of pain, I urge everyone with nerve pain to try it and have faith in our beautiful father, God almighty.
How much of R-ALA are you taking daily and how often? Thank you in advance for your answer.
What brand how much MG please reply
@@majeedmohamed9523 sorry guys. I’m taking 140 mg with a pre workout first time in the morning, along with benfotimine, methylcobalamine, piridoxine and nicotinamide, on an empty stomach.
Another 140 mg at dinner.
The brand I’m using is Allmax but I purchased Life Extension brand too and it seems to work as well, but it’s a heavier dose, and I don’t want to build tolerance or something.
I was taking those vitamins before and the lipoic acid was what made all the difference in the world. It made every other nutrient work! I swear it was a miracle to me, I’m experiencing less and less and less pain every day. Even my family is at awe, because even though I don’t complain and live a “normal” life they watch my spasmic way of walking and the pain reflecting in my face.
May you find relief guys, my sincere best wishes 🙌🏻
How much dosage and what brand you use?
That sounds like you had a parasite that the ALA erradicated. The reason you experienced what you did was because the parasites were moving out
Thank You for being here ...I have Peripheral Neuropathy and have been taking ALA for 2 months and the pain and tingling are gone and I am improving everyday....God Bless You
Sounds great. Hope you're gettin even better.
We’re do I get this ALA
Are you using the R- Alpha lipoic acid ? I hear it's the only one that's actually benefits
@@Babsza It is only assimilated by eating vegetables & fruits and some meats. Like the minerals found in water ... Your bodies do Not assimilate these from water, only food.
If you could tell us the brand Eileen I'd be very grateful as there are so many on the market. Many thanks.
I am sitting here in tears at this timely information for my neuropathy. My doctors never addressed it and now I am in tough shape. Thank you for your love and help to many. May Father God continue to bless you and use you! Thank you kindly dear friend.
Anti depressants, cut out sugar (low carb diet, and very healthy diet), and exercise daily, co-codemal (when required). Worked for me and I was in a bad way with neuropathic pain, and didn't respond well to injections. Best wishes from Ireland, for a happy ,pain free life ! (Forgot to mention, I take vitamin D3, B complex vitamins, selenium, COQ10, Magnesium citrate, Omega 3 supplement, and I eat in a four hour window ,all on a daily basis),(no booze or cigarettes, either). (I also meditate for 2.5 hours per day and flee from stressful scenes ,or stressful people). Best wishes to all fellow humans and especially the ones, who know what neuropathic pain is !

Hi , I can recommend also b3 vitamin - for all neuro disease. I tried it on myself 500mg daily . i saw results quickly. ( it has to be antiflush)
@@patrickol4300 What kind of antidepressant for pain?
I recently learned that there is 3 different types of ALA. Type R, Type S and Type RS. S is a synthetically made version and RS is a blend of natural ALA and synthetic ALA. Both types S & RS should be avoided as the body doesn’t absorb either type very well. Type R is 100% organic/natural. This type gets fully absorbed by the body. If you use supplements, read the back label to see what type of ALA is used. Even if it states Alpha Lipoic Acid, it’s synthetic. The label should show “R-Alpha Lipoic Acid”. You can also determine which type it is by the cost. If it’s type R, it will cost substantially more than types S or RS. I hope this helps
🔴👍🌟
Thanks alots because would have pick up the first thing I seen
@@joegorden1797 LOL 😂! That’s exactly what I did!
Where can I get this just from walmarts or where,I burn every night in my feet
@@gailwebb8156 I got mine online. At Best Price Nutrition. Type R-ALA. It was 49.95 per bottle. Type R cost more because it’s a natural product and takes longer to produce. It has 100% absorption
You are 100% correct! ✅ I was diagnosed with MS and I immediately started taking Alpha Lipoic Acid. I also took the 3 B’s, Vitamin D, Magnesium, Turmeric, Fish Oil and ate pineapples. I believe this saved me! The neurologists are now saying they don’t see any plaques at all on my myelin sheath. You are providing excellent advice! Also stay away from sugar.
What are 3 B’s? If you don’t mind me asking.
Can I ask what type of Alpha Lipoic Acid you have been taking? How long were you taking them before you noticed them helping you? I have been taking them for three months and havn't felt any difference with them so maybe I'm not taking the right ones. I hope you don't mind me asking you this. Thanks in advance.
B6, B9 and B12 all help with nerve damage and pain. B6 especially helps with nerve regrowth
😫😩😭 Sugar 😳 I can’t do that 😫
@@PatriciaBrown1711Someone else commented that there are 3 different types and you want the R -ALA 100% Organic the other ones are rubbish
I wish I saw this 14 yrs ago when the doctor didn't know why my mom was getting nerve damage. Not able to walk any longer. She passed at 82 yrs. If doctors took nutritional classes maybe more patients would be alive. We must be our own advocates. God help us.👍🥰🙏
It's more profitable for them to write the prescriptions.
Don’t blame the Drs because of this. You need to take care of yourself.
There is no money or profit incentive in nutritional therapy...we get sick care industry n not healthcare instead!we get doctors more like drug agents 4 big pharma n one size fit all prescriptions. Iur bodies n needs are not d same...
@@BigPoppa-t3z A little empathy wouldn't cost much.

Yes, good thought!
@John Smith Tell that to Bill Gates.
I began taking R-Alpha-lipoic acid as a supplement in 2013. My peripheral neuropathy was in my entire body. When I began taking it I had two toes on each foot that I could wiggle. Now all my toes are working fine. It took five months of taking it on faith before I began to see major improvements. I will continue to take it until I die.
This is it..R- alpha lipoic acid
How much do you take daily, mg?
@@teribaggett1595 200mg twice daily.
@@alsahib3768Yep. That’s the best one. I’m surprised the doctor didn’t mention this. The S is synthetic and doesn’t work as good from all the research I’ve done.
How old are you, when did neuropathy start? And do you have/had any other health issues besides neuropathy. Thanks
Thank u so much,am a beneficiary to your lectures.I have been suffering from neuropathy for 4.5 years,my pain was excruciating while walking,getting out bed too after a good night sleep.Just exactly after 3 weeks of trying your vitamins prescribed am 70% pain free.I have been taking prescription pain meds for years no relief ,am greatfull for your teaching.May God reward u for restoring my sanity& zest for living.I was really despondent & thinking about surgery which is scary.

This why the American and Western medical schools does not include Nutrition training in their programs. The old saying " A ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure " is a very true statement .
They want us dumbed down so they can keep making money of us!!
No $$$$$$ in it! Why use GOD's natural cures when big evil pharma can kill us & make tons of money in the process. Evil Demons!
Your sort of correct and i say it this way because things are a changing _ We now have Lifestyle Medicine of which western medicine doctors including this in their practice all have a very comprehensive knowledge of nutrition _ And they better as this is the main protocol of "curing" their patient's medical conditions _ Cornell University is the key spot for LM and these plant-based nutritional accredited studies _ A little side note - It was the PRMC, Physicians for Responsible Medicine Committee, which is made up of Lifestyle Medicine doctors; that met with the FDA resulting in changing the dietary recommendations on the Food Pyramid (Standard American Diet) daily nutritional recommendations several years ago into the My Plate _ It was a negotiation as PRMC did not get all the changes they wanted and the FDA relinquished more than planned because the medical science presented by the PRMC was sourced from renown top medical journals - Also this is reviewed every five years for revising as a standard FDA practice.
I think that statement is more pronounced in countries with private Healthcare. 🤔
In other countries there are so many regulations and stipulations of recommendations on anything. The practitioners don't get paid in any way by big pharma so they have a tendency to go to peer reviews and data.
@@drcandor yes and thank you for acknowledging that western medicine need to catch up and in the process of eastern medicine is doing for the wellness of patients. I'm only critical of profit system that was put in place by J.P. Morgan and his cronies that stopped Rife and Tesla plus the nutritionists back then. And thank you for replying to me
I reduced my white sugar intake (candy, cookies, doughnuts, cake, ice cream, soda, etc.) and my symptoms decreased by 95%. I now understand I can never go back to eating foods that contain high refined sugar. The natural sugars in fruits have not caused any adverse problems for me. I eat lots of fruit with no problems.

Just not sure why 19 people have clicked on the thumbs down? I would think this wonderful doctor knows alot more than we do. Thank U sir for your videos. So much appreciated.
I'm wondering why you checked?
There are always a few morons who probably have very poor comprehensive skills and don't really understand what he's saying. My podiatrist said there's no hope for my pain in the foot without removing the bad nerve surgically so I'm definitely going to give this a try if this works it seems like a miracle
So true David. I truly hope u find That miracle David. Everything we can do to ease pain is worth it. 😊

I recently came across Alpha-Lipoic Acid. After 3 weeks I was able to sleep without pain in my feet. Because of it, I also notice the tension spasm in my head have disappear. Good Stuff, Doc..
He is right...I had nerve itching and tingling in my feet...went to school on it, online, and learned about ALA...totally solved the problem. It was miserable at the time...interfered with sleeping, packed my feet with ice bags to get some relief till I discovered the ALA. Now, at the first sign of even the slightest symptom...I take 600mg. Works completely.

@josephmartin5483 not sure you will see this, joe, but for me it kicked in after maybe a week....need to have it build up a little in your system, then...WOW. you will be amazed.
I am home. I had to resign from my job because I all the symptoms mentioned here. Thanks, Doctor Mandell, for this information. I am tired of hurting, and I want my life back. I wish everyone listening or reading this information all the best. 💯 great health to all. Much love ❤️ as always.
How are you feeling now?
Samé here
I enjoyed this video because I have nerve damage from a severely compressed spinal cord surgery 8-31-21 and the right side of my body is still numb. I am very aggravated and have restless nights due to the burning sensation. I am going to take heed to your advice and trust God for complete healing!😢😢🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hi Pamela. I, too, had surgery for severely depressed, spinal cord and my body is still numb and the right side is worse than the left. Have you started taking this supplement? Have you noticed anything else that might work? I’ve tried just about everything at this point.
Amen God Bless you 🙏🏿 Thank you Jesus yes please heal her heal us all Lord!
Hello I have the same thing going on now doctor said I need surgery.. I’m still up in the air with the surgery
And quit all sugary junk food !
I had neck surgery and was on neurontin for many years until I changed my diet. No sugar, low carbs. Just meat and veggies and healthy fats. No longer need those meds 😊
Well does ALA work
I’m watching this two yr old video. God almighty will bless you as many times as people watch you give solutions to their health issue. Dr Mandell you must be very close to the almighty. Thanks
This guy should be teaching doctor of the power of nutrition before graduating from med. School.
They would not make as much money.. lol I am making fun
But it's true.
@@glendajohnson4558wa
They wouldn’t listen to him cuz he’s a chiropractor not an MD
@@jodyjackson5475 he is still a doctor, and this is info you can find yourself easily.
I agree totally
Delores portoles,I pray to the Lord You Get BETTER!
Thank you again so much! the pain was terrible and this helped a lot.; doctors will never tell anyone about this. Praise God!
I have come to trust this man on the other side of the world because i cannot trust my own allopathic 'doctor'. I am 64 and everything i have tried from this man has had a noticeably positive effect. Many thanks Doc!
Yes, he truly tries to help, Dr. with heart
Thanks for sharing.. 👍
Doc I’m almost positive you have patients lined up out the door wanting an opportunity to be seen by you. What a fantastic doctor!
He is not a medical doctor.
Thank u doctor, I am going to try this, I pray that I can get this in Durban South Africa, I am suffering now for almost 6 years with what the spine doctor says, nerve is trapped under the disc. Pinched nerve. The pain is cruciating. I am also diabetic. Thank u doctor, God bless u
I want to thank you Dr Mandel. Some time ago I was struck by lightning like, random pain. This continued for some time but eventually I was left with pain in the nerves in my legs. This kept me awake at night and restless legs became a horrible feature of my life. I purchased some alpha lipolic acid and then over a period of time forgot that I had a problem. So it works, restless legs was not particularly mentioned but the shocking pains and the restlessness have gone. I can’t thank you enough.
its been a miracle for my restless leg syndrome
How long did it take to fix you?
Thank you for your comment. Gives hope to those with this terrible problem and those who love them... 🙋🏻♀️❤🌺🌄
I had a fall and my nerves at the back of the knee were pressed four months ago. Physio therepist tried with stimulating it. and there is improvement.but my toes are not getting. sensation., because of foot drop. I am using Walker. Please suggest good and effective treatment.
Thank you so much.
@@vimaldhalwani6827 I've read some use DMSO, cayenne creams or make your own(apply with gloves only), castor oil packs, or other over the counter rubs or warm foot baths. These things are a trial and error thing. Everyone is different. You could also ask your pharmacist. The poster above also recommended alpha lipoic acid, Vimal....
I'm in week 4 after shingles. I'm struggling with nerve aggravation. Itching and pain. Thank you so much Dr. Mandel. No doctors are saying what you teach and you're a blessing.
Dr Stan Ekberg is better.
Raw Natural Honey is the best pain reliever out there for the blisters.. Ask me how I know this..
Try bentonite clay!
My son is in week 8 of a severe shingles attack on his head forehead and eyelid. The shingles blisters are healing well and he is left with numbness and serious fatigue. He has been eating many of the foods suggested and maybe will try the supplement. I have heard that acupuncture helps. Try lidocaine to help with your itching, etc. I hope you feel better soon.
@@lauri-jokotzen6690 Read my comment on natural honey......
You truly are a blessing from God. My dad suffered from neuropathy for years (was not diabetic) went to major hospitals in Boston and NOT 1 doctor ever told him to take alpha lipoc acid but instead prescribed toxic pharma drugs. Thank you for your information
You neglected to mention cancer. I have HER2+ breast cancer and my neuropathy is SO bad! Thank you for this video. I’m gonna try and pray it eases some of my symptoms.
Dr Mandela
Thank You !! Thank You. for sharing the Neuropaphy video. I came across it on u-tube. I have had motor neuropathy for twelve years. I have been told nothing could been medically done for me. It has left me in a very difficult place in my life …My walking mostly. All though I do have other symptoms as numbness in my feet, legs, and it is moving up to my upper body …
I have turned to My Heavenly Father, as I know he knows my need in this situation…. To night my prayers have been answered. Thank You Heavenly Father. And I thank you also for your concern for others Doctor Mandela .. May you be Blessed as You Bless others..
Ms. J. N. Sweet
I checked with both of my doctors and both said ALA is safe for me to take so I started on it recently. I have some of the symptoms mentioned. Thank you Dr Mandell. Your suggestions for sinus and bronchial issues had been life changing for me. You are very kind for caring about others to make all these videos to help us improve our health and lives.
don't buy his link, it's garbage useless product. You want the ingredients to show R-ALA, not S-ALA or RS-ALA, only R-ALA. This guy scams.
R-ALA works better than S-ALA
@@verajones887 No, S-ALA blocks you from absorbing R-ALA. So anything that isn't pure R-ALA is useless. So, this YTber is a scammer.
Trust me when I say fo carnivore. Plants are full of oxalates which are built in poisons that cause us damage. All plants hurt us. They are not food they block our vitimins.ins and minerals and the lack of b vitimins cause neuropathy and MS. I tested this out myself and it's true, look it up. The sugars in plants turn to crystallized glass and cut u within and then your immune system responds and thus inflammation. We are carnivores, nothing more. Plants inflame period.
@@MusclesAreMagic Dr Mandell is far from a scammer. Several of his videos have been life changing for me. :)
Happy to see that there are many good people who like to help people suffering from many diseases. I appreciate your efforts to educate people medically rather than traditionally. Your videos are a sigh of relief for depressed people.
I was having leg cramps multiple times a night. With my doctor's approval I started taking ALA. They have stopped completely. I think my neuropathy is also improving. Starting my second bottle
My dog hurt his back and couldn’t walk behind for 5 months or so but I started him on ALA for a few weeks and he was able to start walking again on his own. I also took him to chiropractor visits. Maybe he just healed by time but it sure seemed to help. It was a miracle he got to enjoy another Christmas and walk around on his own before he passed awhile later from heart issues.
Depends on the spinal injury. Some can only be fixed with surgery. We had one that had to have an emergency op, and another that started walking again after crate rest, physiotherapy, Valium, anti inflammatory and pain killers. They are on a natural dog food diet - balanced raw, so naturally have all the necessary nutrients, without the harmful effects of kibble.

If I was a dog , I’d like to belong to you .
@@LAllan-ls5er Thank you ! For about a week i was tough but we figured it out and wasn't that hard. I carried the back end and he walked up front to go to the bathroom. We never changed routines and he still road everywhere. One day after i saw he had been standing on the bed and was standing at the door when i came inside i finally let him free, after we made it outside and he walked to a bush and peed...he gradually got stronger and by Christmas he was doing a dance... i videotaped it. Best video ever.

Definitely going too try this supplement..just starting to have problems, thank you
I will emotionally breakdown out of gratitude if I ever meet him 🙏 you're amazing Doc, thank you!
What is this god thing all the time with you americans !! Religion and medicine might both have a role in wellness !!!But they are entirely separate entities. A doctor is just a bloke with a bit more knowledge (not a lot) than the rest of us !!!! Next best thing to a god he most certainly is not !!!!!
So true, I do no even understand why so called doctors don’t give us this important advise. Dr Mandell is a blessing and I thank the Lord for him. 😊💕
I started taking this 600 ml a day and I have had incredible success with it.
Great Explanation !!

What's the name of it?
I just started a deep dive on myelin sheath repair and I’m really grateful I found this video.
I stated taking dedicated beef organs a few months ago and I could not believe the impact.
I don’t trust brands any longer in supplements so I cycle between brands.
I was unaware that I may already be improving the myelin.
I’ve been tested for MS and Lupus but not diagnosed (not enough markers) so I jumped in to taking extra good care of my body - I’m 7.5 years into low carb/high fat and reversed all the symptoms except neuropathy and some pain at an injury site. The organs have really helped.
did you mean "desicated" beef organs? i am not trying to be a wise ass, honestly, just wondered if "dedicated" is something i am not aware?
@@deborabump1618 yes- auto correct will be our undoing
We really need to reread our comments AFTER we post them to make certain they say what we intended. In my experience, sometimes auto-correct changes words, and the meaning is then wrong. Rereading also gives an opportunity to correct grammar and spelling.
I just want you to know I saw this video when it first came out. I am a pre-diabetic who suffered from peripheral neuropathy. I saw this. I took your advice and started ALA. After the FIRST pill, the pain disappeared. And hasn't come back! Now I take 600mg ALA every day. I don't know if there are words sufficient to thank you enough.
Hi Andrew , What type of ALA do you take ? Just asking because I see their is R-ALA which they say is more effective then just Regular ALA 🤔
@@nccapone344 probably the s form. I didn't know there were 2 types. But whatever I have, it's working
@@andrewbrown12 Thanks for the info, yeah I didn't know about the two different types either till I was reading up on ALA but good to know that the regular ALA type also work 😀
Hi Andrew - can you provide the brand that you take? Glad it's working for you. Hope it works for me too.

@Fam Eight I ordered nature’s best alpha lipoic acid 300mg high grade 🙏
Ok, i have to give testimony that i have a severely damaged spine that has had me taking copious dosages of narcotic pain medication for over 25 years. As I age my condition does not improve it only continues to decline. My mind will not accept this so i went on a path to my OWN healing. Alpha Lipoic Acid (taken with cayenne pepper ...loose in water) first thing in the morning along with my coffee and bovine collagen HAS begun to change my body! My supplements are "my own" and i suggest you all do your own research best suited to your needs/body but THIS advice he gives IS solid and can be trusted. Be blessed
❤❤❤ Good !
“Alpha-lipoic acid can be eaten in foods, such as red meat, carrots, beets, spinach, broccoli, and potatoes.” Keep up the good work!
It have the capsul forms too
Do the carrots need to be raw?
@@HM-je6pb
Potatoes are nightshades and can increase inflammation.
Will this help with RSD/CRPS?

I have been viewing this wonderful Dr for weeks now. I have had been to numerous physicians for chronic right side neck and shoulder pain. Doctor Mandels videos has helped a great deal. But a day ago I all of a sudden had trouble walking, my legs just wanted to buckle, and sent me to the ER. The physicians there as always did the typical tests that they do,and said that I may have MS. The Dr there put me on Gabapetin, and recommended a neurologist for tests. I do not think I have MS, because I still have pain in my right neck and shoulder. I am not a prescription popper, refuse to take what they prescribe, I have a bulging disc,and mild degeneration because of my age. I prefer doing things natural. Dr Mendel has made me feel better just knowing that there are physicians in this world that truly want to help people. God Bless you Sir...
Dr. Mandell you are a blessing for me. I’ve been following you for several years and not commented before (I’m sorry). I’ve been a type II diabetic since 2003. Told it was a progressive disease, incurable and destructive. I’ve taken numerous medications to control my blood sugars, advancing to insulin approximately 10 years ago. Metformin did not work on me,but I noticed if I ate anything high in carbs I would get severe diarrhea. I was also obese. I studied intermittent fasting and a reactive food diet which resulted in a 60 lb weight loss. I still took the metformin and insulin and struggled to get my A1c below 9.0
I developed neuropathy and noticed vision changes. My allopathic Dr told me everything wrong with me was due to my uncontrolled blood sugars. I got angry and frustrated.
This is the same time I found this video and learned about alpha lipoic acid. I followed your recommendation the past six months and the results are shocking to me. Within the first 30 days my glucose average went from over 200 to less than 100. The pain from nerves in my body has minimized as has the numbness in my feet and hands. The best part of all? I stopped taking the metformin after the first week on ALA. My insulin dosage has dropped from 50 units per day to 5 - 20 units. I do not consume any artificial sweeteners. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, less meat protein and if I want sugar it is made with natural pure cane sugar, no corn syrup or stevia.
Your advice has reversed the decline I was experiencing and empowered me beyond what the current medical profession appears to rely on…. Prescription drugs to treat the symptoms instead of finding and treating the source of the illness.
I started experiencing this after I had my cesarean section for my baby.I don't have diabetes but I have this neuropathy pain so badly
@aknaturelvr .
Kindly share your diet and medicine.i hv diabetes since 2001 and a1c is 9.1
@@nishavishwkarma4052 you rarely hear back from these people who are planted to tell their BS stories, speaks volumes about the content of the video and the claims made which are done to make the author tons of money.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. You give us hope
@@nishavishwkarma4052 I am not one of those BS stories as has been suggested. I received a notice today there was a reply posted to me from Butter Gurls and happened upon your request for me.
My diet focuses on low complex carbs (minimal processed food if any), with a foundation of natural proteins (beef, fish, chicken and eggs). I drink at least 4 to 6 pints of water daily. Breakfast/lunch (I normally eat two meals per day max) is typically 2 poached eggs on Killer Dave multigrain thin slice bread or I will eat a bowl of McCanns steel cut oatmeal with raisins or dates, plus a handful of NuTrail Keto granola (pretty much nuts and coconut). I use whipping cream in my coffee and Irish butter on my toast.
Dinner will likely be a meat or fish protein, vegetables and salads.
Snacks are fresh fruit (berries, apple, citrus, a banana or grapes), Costco mixed deluxe nuts (no peanuts), dried beef jerky and spicy pork rinds.
I love the way you explain everything, it's 100% comprehendable! I used to fall asleep in anatomy and physiology classes, but as you explain, it comes rushing back, and that was over 30 years ago! I've actually learned and retained more crucial information from your videos than in those courses. I knew more than enough for my profession ss a dental hygienist, but as our goal was prevention, I wish I'd known what you're teaching us today. I'm retired, but it's not too late to help myself and others with the invaluable information you so enthusiastically and thoroughly pass on to us from the goodness of your heart. I really can't thank you enough! But I'll try by doing what you ask us at the end of every amazing video, share it to others who need it! ❤❤❤
I'm a paraplegic. Many of us suffer from extremely dibilitating levels of nueropathy. Never, have any of my doctors suggested this. They just want to prescribe meds that don't work and have horrible side-effects. I'm going to try this! I'm sick of the pain!
I also use turmeric capsules, white willow caps, and an ice pack for the feet at night; try it!

Benefits of alpha lipoic acid
I started taking this 2.5 weeks ago after experiencing peripheral neuropathy as a result of long covid and its already helping tremendously. Absolutely worth incorporating into your diet!
isn't it amazing??? i started with 600 mg as dr. mandell mentioned, but upped to 1200 for best results. like 98 percent gone. i am on my 2nd bottle from "dr's. best". i also take standard process version of black currant seed oil. amazing. aren't we lucky to have this dr. here, sharing all this wealth of knowledge with us?
I assume a person can take this along with other supplements? When is the best time to take? Ty
Respect from uk, this gentleman is a true starseed lightworker.
Honestly this has to be the best Dr. by far. The information and the way he explains it all is just amazing. We need more of these Drs in the world and not those that only write prescriptions for pain killer drugs 👍
Oh my Lord yeah . Wish this was taught in school .
The best doctor? He is not a medical doctor..How can he be the best when he does not even warn people who are on medications and how certain products can interfere with meds? Careless.

Can someone please help me with my question? I have bought a bottle of Alpha Lipoic Acid but it says that it can interfere with blood sugar levels, does Alpha Lipoic Acid and R-Alpha Lipoic Acid lower blood sugar levels?
And can you get diabetes from Alpha Lipoic Acid ?
And I heard that only the R-Alpha Lipoic Acid works but not the Alpha Lipoic Acid, is that true?
The bottles of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid and Alpha Lipoic Acid contain capsules of 100 mg of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid and of Alpha Lipoic Acid . But in it is written to take 1 capsule per day. But dr Mandell says we have to take 300-600 mg per day, so is it safe to take 6 capsules per day of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid or Alpha Lipoic Acid because I want 600 mg of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid or Alpha Lipoic Acid per day ?
Thank you very much!!!
R-ALA has turned my life around. My foot pain has reduced by 70 % after the first time taking it. I have had neuropathy for 15 yrs only sleeping for about 3 hrs a night because of the pain. Sometimes going 2 or 3 times a week with no sleep. I’m 70 now and can spend the rest of my life almost pain free. Also, I have quit taking the fibromyalgia meds that I’ve been on for 30 yrs with virtually no fibro symptoms now. Thank you Lord. 🙏

Love how you went straight to the point. Many don’t! I have MS and experience numbness, tingling, and have issues walking. Going to watch some more of your videos and try it out. I do still walk, with two canes, and I would like to walk my trash can to to curb on Tuesday’s and be strong enough to walk my son out on the court for senior night. Thanks for this info and All Power to the Most High Yah!
I pray God blesses you with healing to walk with your son. I use B1-Bentafiamine for neuropathy too. There are many videos on this too.
Have you been checked for lyme and mold by a functional doctor? Ms is usually fungus/viruses/lyme disease and mold infections in the body. MS IS 100% reversible. I would see a functional doctor and get a bioscan
I have had ms for 26 years too. I find vit D3 and K2, R alpha lipoid acid 600 a day and vit E 400 a day are important. Since I also have Lyme disease vit D3 receptors are blocked. I need to take a much higher dose of 40 000 iUs twice or three times a week. I take K2 600 mcg to help the proper absorption at the same time.

I have learned so much from Dr and it’s quick and spot on !, thank you !,
Dear hello, I have the same symptoms as you. I have hot feet, tingling and paresthesia in the feet. Most of the doctors are idiots. They did not understand what was wrong. I went to a neurologist and disc doctor. They told me that you do not have a disc or other diseases in my back ... but I suffer from hot feet in summer and in winter I get cold feet and I checked vitamin B12 There was a normal and good examination. I went to an internist. He did an examination for me, including diabetes and gout. Nothing came of it. I said, I think you have problems with the peripheral nerves. What do you advise me to do now if I take alpha lipoic acid? I will not be affected by it. I will benefit from it if I take it, and what dose do you take and for how long?
there are several others who do this too.
This is a blessing. Started on this a month ago after nearly 2 years of severe shoulder pain from a neck injury and post cervical surgery. I am practically pain free. I also started mobilising the area with strength training as well. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

You might want to try B1 also, I had neuropathic type pain in legs and tried higher doses of B1 that I actually got an prescription for it and I feel it helped as the issue is practically gone now.

Peep that video description
@@larryj1048
Dr. Mandell told us about a supplement that may help us with our health. He doesn’t make any money from the supplement company at all by promoting it. He does get paid (some sort of system) by Google for his videos. He is a caring person having an enormous amount of love and empathy for all people. His unique teaching ability to relate and communicate to others has helped millions of people all over the world with their health problems. Although his videos are usually short it involves a huge amount of time and effort to research and make the presentation. I believe his motivation to help others has developed into an amazing hobby which has him smiling all the way to the bank.😊 Awesome!
Pharmaceuticals and jealous others might not celebrate his success, but most of us say “Yay for you Dr. Mandell! And thanks for all you do!🙏😘🤗🌻
@Gladio Light
No! 🤣 Are you kidding me? Why would you ask me that? Did I lay it on too thick for Dr. Mandell? It just bothers me that some try to discredit or make fun of him.
I can’t remember exactly what was said, but if I remember correctly someone was commending Dr. Mandell for being so kind about giving us such good health advice and then not pushing or selling some kind of product at the end of his videos, like most people do.
Then some guy (he may be a nice person just joking around) said something like “But he just did”. So, I got started with my defense for Dr. Mandell.
Because I’m grateful when he recommends herbs and supplements for us to take for our ailments. I’ve had many health problems and spent loads of money with flakey wellness type caregivers and got nothing in return. I don’t have the funds to do that anymore since my divorce. I had a crooked lawyer and a greedy ex, so they did the usual “under the table” type deal. I’m going on 75 years old and I was married to him for 40 years. The good Lord always takes care of His children and He will never forsake me.

I was experiencing nerve pain on my outer thigh, feet and lower back. My doc prescribed ton of pills and physical therapy. I did not fill prescription for pills. I said “no” I’m not going that route. Physical therapy? I gave it 2 weeks. The therapist was a joke! He was too busy with other patients or he didn’t know what exercises to recommend. I did a lot of research and stumbled on ALA and start we’d d taking. Voila!!! I have steadily improved with pain and so happy to tell everyone to go my route! Thank you, Dr. Mandell. I will share your video! You are spot on! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Dr Mandell, I have been diagnosed with Neuropathy. I’ve been told there is no cure⁉️ However, I’ve been on a quest to find ALTERNATIVES. This video give me resources to help with the Neuropathy. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Same here and the side effects of pills are terrible 😞
Can you walk and move again ?
Started taking ALA three weeks ago and am thrilled by the results to date. My feet are much less numb when walking barefoot around the house. I can feel the cold tiles on the bottom of my feet again! Strangely, when walking in shoes, the numbness, although greatly reduced, is still noticeable but I've lost the fear that I'll stumble at any second. Dr. Mandell is an incredibly accurate diagnostician (and a generous soul for sharing), my go-to health resource on RUclips and Facebook. Thanks a million, Doc!
After my vein striped in my leg for open heart surgery, I couldn't stop feeling it in my ankle with our without shoes on. Now it is almost a dream.
Where should I get ALA?
@@subrata1934 Any macrobiotic store should have it.
Oh my goodness this stuff actually works!!! Finally I can get to sleep at night ..... thank you so much!
I wish I had this man for my doctor!
But, You do
100% accurate! I started to have numbness, tingling, and horrible itching in my thumb, which then started spread to the rest of my palm. I've been taking ALA for a few months, and it's completely gone away 😊.
I’ll try it to can you show me your brand
Congratulations

This man is flat out brilliant. Explains functional cures no other doctor can explain.
Greetings hornet224. Yes he is hornet224!!!!!!! The Motivational Doc is God The Most High Sent!
He kept learning about how the body heals rather than which synthesized med to push for which symptoms and which to push for the resulting side effects in order to get paid by pharma.
God has Blessed Dr. Mandell to be Hos instrument to God's Ways of healing..I do believe Our gracious Lord God Does moy want all these CHEMICALS in our bodies..
Isaiah 55 KJV
GIVE ALL GLORY TO GOD ..FOR SO GREAT A GIFT.. AMEN
Um, no, he is not God. But Jesus is. He is The Way, The Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father but by Him. Whosoever shall call upon His name shall be saved!
Oh they could explain it they just get paid not too. They are not taking the oath of Healing they are taking the oath of supporting Big Pharma,they think they have to do this to make money it is all BS look up Natural healing and herbal healings to get the best healing for your body.
I have neuropathy from chemotherapy, especially in the top half of my feet. I hope this will help that! I’ll be getting some. I do eat red meat, broccoli, baby spinach, peas and potatoes, but maybe not enough. I do take B-6 and the D, but I’ll take any help I can get. Just found this Dr. And am taking some of his drinks for various things, and so far I’m loving it! Thanks Dr.!
Don't take B6. Can make ot worse. Maybe try B12
My present doctor has not suggested any solution to my foot neuropathy, he strictly follows the big Pharma approach...and I so thankful that you don't. I praise God for you and your desire to share the truth.
vit b shots STOPPED my feet neuropathy ,,, highly recommended
Thanks, I already use alpha lipoic acid and vitamin b12 for about a month, bought a juicer to meet ncrease nutrient intake, will ask the doc for a vitamin b shot tomorrow.
In a month my legs have improved massively, from numbing upto my thighs and now mostly only my toes, thanks
Doctors generally just get "that look" on their face and say "there's nothing we can do". End of appointment (and this after waiting 6 months to get a phone consultation!)
Shots of b vitamin and gcmaf to heal the gut ..9 years of horrific feet pain is gone
@@raenyastardustc6091 sorry, what is gcmaf please ?
Being a diebetic l trust in all the advices of Dr Mandell.He cares so much for everyone's health.You are a blessing for us Dr Mandell.God will always protect you and your family.Thank you so much. 🙏🙏
Maybe if your diabetic look up about cloves. Not medical advice of me of course, only saying.
Can someone please help me with my question? I have bought one bottle of ALA, but it says that it can increase blood sugar levels. And I have heard that sugar is bad for the brain. So is ALA bad for someone who has MS ?
And can you get diabetes from ALA ?
Thank you very much!
@@jackbrown8802 I've seen your question in a couple of posts. I hope someone answers you soon.
@@darcanjel7 thank you, I hope also thank you.
Read/LISTEN to METABOLICAL... By Robert H Lustig MD
Thank God there are doctors like u. Not only want to help us but also educate us .
This gave me so much hope! I’m going to go buy some now. I’ve been having pain in both of my legs for a month and a half. I’m praying this will take the pain away 🙏
Dr Mandell, just look at all the people you’ve helped! God bless you. It must be so rewarding. You are a true treasure.
God bless you Dr. Mendel you surely are a gift for humankind, last night I was able to sleep the full night and I was able to stand up without pain or moving in a certain way to avoid the pain in my sciatic nerve, I didn’t have the usual cramps in my legs at night, I only woke up because my wife have set the alarm, so, once awaken the first think I wanted to do is coming to my computer to thank you and now that I did it I will take my alpha lipoic acid and I will go back to sleep just because it feels so good.
Thank you very much! I thank God to put you in my way and I wish God to bless you in abundance.
Thank you again and again and again
Is it still working for you? I’m considering trying this
That’s wonderful to hear!
God bless for sharing your experience. That would help many
update. i now take alpha lipoic acid once daily and after a month my glucose sugar levels dropped to normal range and some of the pains i use to have left me... thank you Dr Mandell :)
Can i take this without my doctor’s advice??
@@joanstomer216 why couldn’t you?? They don’t know much about diet and supplements.
I live in the uk and wonder if you can tell me the best brand of alpha lipoic acid.would be very grateful.thankyou.
@@kerrybirchall4627 he lists it under the description of the video.
@@kerrybirchall4627 I use Source Naturals brand of Alpha Lipoifc Acid it is excellent.
I was addicted to sugar so much that I can take hot dishes from the microwave and sometimes the oven without pot holders. Now I know why. Thank you!
