Vitamins That May Help Tingling Feet

Posted by rakadewa On December - 10 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

If you suffer from peripheral neuropathy, you’re probably familiar with the uncomfortable tingling of the feet and numbness so common with this condition. Neuropathies

can involve a single nerve – a common example is carpal tunnel syndrome where the median nerve in the arm is damaged – or multiple nerves. A frequent example of a neuropathy involving multiple nerves is diabetic peripheral neuropathy which not only involves tingling of the feet but can progress to neuropathic foot pain and muscle weakness.

What Causes Peripheral Neuropathy?

Although diabetes is a common cause of peripheral nerve and tingling of the feet, it’s not the only one. Peripheral neuropathy can be caused by injury, the effects of certain medications, exposure to heavy metals and other toxins, alcoholism, metabolic diseases, autoimmune diseases, and nutritional deficiencies – particularly deficiency of the B vitamins. In some cases, a cause for peripheral neuropathy can’t be found.

Treating People with Peripheral Neuropathy

Treatment for people with peripheral neuropathy involves treating the underlying cause if it can be found. For diabetics, getting blood sugars under control can help reduce tingling of the feet and neuropathic foot pain. Eliminating toxins, alcohol, and any medications that might be contributing to the problem also helps those with peripheral neuropathy. In cases that are resistant to treatment, there are two types of vitamins that may help to relieve some of the neuropathic foot pain and tingling of the feet that occur with this condition.

PHYTO Phytocedrat Sebo-regulating Shampoo

My hair seemed to be getting oilier and oilier to where I almost felt like I had to wash it morning and night. I know, that’s a horrible thing to do to my hair, but what my hair is doing to skin is horrible! I started looking around to find a shampoo to help with my oily scalp but it seems that the majority of shampoos cater to dry scalps. So I had to do some deep searching before I found the one right for me.

When functioning normally, the sebaceous glands of the scalp lubricate hair with sebum. However, excessive sebum can make the hair weighed down and difficult to manage, a phenomenon that can worsen if the right shampoo is not used. The best prevention is to use a shampoo that is specially formulate to restore the balance of natural secretion of the scalp.

This is what PHYTO has discovered and has brought the most potent active ingredients from the botanical world to your hair through Phytotherathrie, the science of haircare through plants. They have made the PHYTO Phytocedrat Sebo-regulating Shampoo specially for these oily scalps. After using this about two months I noticed I could go every other day without having to shampoo my hair. The only thing that you have to remember to do is shampoo first at the scalp and then again at the tips because it takes the second time to really get it to lather up. Also it is very watery so I put it in a sprayer to apply so that I don’t waste any of the product and have it just fall straight down the drain.
