Keep in mind, though, that while eggs are nutritious, they may cause symptom flare-ups in people who are allergic or sensitive. Like any suspected allergen or sensitivity, it is advisable to remove the food from your diet for at least two weeks, then keep note of any symptoms when you add the food back into your diet. Also notice if your body reacts differently depending on how the eggs are cooked. The way eggs are cooked can reduce or exasperate a reaction.

Use Herbs Generously to Flavor Your Food and Feed Your Nerves

Herbs have been used for healing since ancient times, and current research shows our ancestors were on to something. There is plenty of evidence to believe that these early remedies possess the power to combat chronic inflammation and neutralize damaging free radicals, two worst enemies of neuropathy. But they don’t stop there. Herbs are also loaded with powerful vitamins, minerals, polyphenols, bacterial defenders, and so much more.

When time is tight, take this shortcut. Simply add herbs to any meal for a quick boost of nutrients. But keep in mind that fresh is best. Dried herbs often contain molds that can activate your immune system. Live plants by a window in your kitchen make it easy to just snip and toss on foods for a boost of nutrition that both your taste buds and nerves will be happy about.
