ALA
ALA or alpha-lipoic acid is a supplement that has been proved to prevent nerve damages causing diabetic foot pain. The recommended daily intake is around 900 mg, taken in three times during the day. In some cases, your doctor might recommend a lower or higher dosage. ALA can reduce the levels of your blood sugar, thus minimizing the risks and symptoms of your condition. It often takes around 1 month to see improvements in your nerve sensations. Some possible side effects include rashes, dizziness, or stomach upset. [14]
