Get yourself checked if you suffered symptoms from Peripheral Neuropathy




My mother in law suffered from peripheral neuropathy long before she was diagnosed with Diabetes 2. She complained about the numbness of her feet most of the times. She has difficulty walking or just standing up. She elevated her feet when she felt pins and needles puncturing her feet.




She was heavy on medication and the symptoms further worsened when her blood sugar shoots up.

The damage to nerve systems results from high blood sugar levels and risk levels increase for those with this disease who have high blood pressure, are overweight, or are older than 40.

That's why I exercised a lot (I really have to squeeze it to my schedule) and checking what I eat. It is best to have a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Get yourself tested for this disease. Visit your doctor if you suffer for feet numbness, muscle weakness and symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. Then again, what are the symptoms, can it be treated?. What food are best if you are suffering from this disease.



I got myself tested for peripheral neuropathy when I attended the Nenoin Study event at Marco Polo Hotel on March 21 using the portable machine. It tested your numbness sensation from 1-20. I had 5-9.  Thank God I had a normal result.


In keeping your nerves healthy, a diet rich  in whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and lean protein is a good idea. If you must,  incorporate a 30-minute work out session in your weekly schedule. Engage yourself in healthy lifestyle.




Peripheral Neuropathy is a disorder affecting nerves, impairing them in their function of transmitting information and potentially affecting millions of people worldwide. Peripheral Neuropathy can cause various body discomforts, such as tingling, increased or decreased sensitivity to vibration, hot or cold, numbness, muscle weakness and even burning pain. Peripheral Neuropathy can cause "typical symptoms" which appear more often and "atypical symptoms, which are less frequent and can be overlooked or misinterpreted.



Example of symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy: PARESTHESIA, NUMBNESS, BURNING PAIN,  SHARP PAIN


Symptoms of peripheral neuropathy can seem innocuous but have an impact of the patients' well-being and their quality of life. Early detection and treatment are crucial as well as effective treatment options, which relieve patients from their symptoms without having to suffer from significant side effects.


Causes and risk factors of peripheral neuropathy are multiple and include conditions such as:

Genetics Family member suffers from neuropathy); chronic diseases, like diabetes; environmental toxins, alcoholism; nutritional deficiencies e g vitamin B deficiency and other unexplained causes.

Neurobion Forte treatment: Neurotropic B vitamins combination has been proven effectively for peripheral neuropathy sufferers in relieving symptoms, which have been included into the study independently from the cause of their disease. The symptoms were even more reduced over longer duration of treatment (for a 3 months period tested and the treatment was well tolerated.





New observational, non-interventional clinical study-a giant leap for taking care of peripheral neuropathy sufferers 

Clinical study shows benefits on symptoms of peripheral neuropathy 

Peripheral neuropathy sufferers treated with a combination of three neurotropic B vitamins have experienced improvement on all neuropathy symptoms observed in the study independently from the cause of their neuropathy. 

NERVES 

The nervous system allows us to perceive, comprehend, and respond to the world around us. It coordinates voluntary actions like walking and involuntary actions like breathing and swallowing, Nerves, the components of the nervous tissue, enable impulses sensation and motion between the brain, spinal cord and other parts of the body. 





OBSERVATIONAL, NON-INTERVENTIONAL CLINICAL STUDY CONFIRMS THE BENEFITS OF A UNIQUE TREATMENT FOR ALL

 A new clinical study (Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, lan 2018) has brought a major step forward for nerve health: it has demonstrated that an effective treatment helps relieve all neuropathy symptoms (observed in the study), regardless of the cause of peripheral neuropathy.

Whether the patients were suffering from numbness, pain or paraesthesia (usually painless sensation like tingling or itching, often felt in the arms and feet, they experienced relief on all these symptoms. It was also observed that the longer they used the treatment, the more relief the patients felt from these symptoms.

Finally it is also very reassuring to see that the treatment has shown a good tolerance profile over the whole duration (3 months)



Neurobion, the nerve care expert from Merck Consumer Health was first launched in the Philippines in July 1972 and is now the world's no. 1 in neurotropic B vitamins combination products. "ICMA MDAS sales for MAT 09/2016 te MAT 06/2017


Neurotropic B vitamins are vitamins exerting their benefits on the health of the nervous system. They have an important role in nourishing enriching and helping to regenerate nerves in those who suffer compromised nerve health or peripheral neuropathy.

Cheska Kramer Shows the Importance of Sangobion

Sangobion shows women the value of taking care of oneself & loving life 

Cheska Kramer with son Gavin

Sangobion ambassadors led by Chezka Kramer and Jenni Epperson launched the organic iron made Sangobion in media on May 6, 2014 at Makati Shangrila.  Kelly Misa hosted the event, while Dr. Sylvia Carnero informed the effects of lack of iron in women. Women who were present at the event were treated to an afternoon of relaxation and pampering by having a nail spa and styling their hair. The event was turned into a salon-like party.

Women are natural nurturers. Some women love cooking for others, some like to give gifts, while others enjoy lending a helping hand. It is in these acts of kindness that we often feel happy and fulfilled. Though we have much love to share, we often show love for ourselves the least.  But by focusing on our own well-being and pampering ourselves once in a while, we learn that in order to give love, we must begin loving ourselves first.

This is the kind of self-empowerment that Sangobion (ferrous gluconate + vitamins and minerals) would like to advocate to women all over. The demands of modern life often make women feel pressured both at home and at work –making it easy for women to neglect themselves. The Sangobion Go Love Life! campaign reminds women that while we take care of others, we must not forget to take care of ourselves as well. When we are at our best selves, then we can lead a life that we love.

Kelly Misa hosted the Sangobion event
The event demonstrated to women how regularly taking time off and boosting your health with Sangobion can help you to go and love life.Unlike other iron supplements, Sangobion contains Ferrous gluconate, an organic iron, which is absorbed better by the body to help fight the signs of iron deficiency. Each capsule is chocolate-scented that leaves no iron after-taste. Sangobion also contains essential vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin C, Folic acid, Vitamin B12, Copper, and Manganese to build healthy red blood cells and immune system. It also contains sorbitol which acts as anti-constipating agent that generally occurs in iron supplementation.

Furthermore, Sangobion helps fight signs of iron deficiency like fatigue, paleness, dizziness, and lack of focus and concentration which women experience when they neglect themselves. Taking Sangobion everyday can help you boost your iron, so that you can look and be at your best.
The launch was also the kick-off for Sangobion’s 15-day challenge. In addition to taking Sangobion everyday for 15 days, these women also made the pledge to practice loving themselves first and to encourage other women to do the same.

Sangobion is also partnering with select establishments to treat women to special pocket events including a shopping spree and a makeover session, which are expected to draw in more women to the cause.


Sangobion’s new efforts truly show women that caring for others also means having a healthy relationship with yourself. It’s about loving yourself first so you can fully embrace the life you lead.
