In this video, I explain what paraesthesia is, what causes it, and suggestions to remedy it.
A paraesthesia is a problem with your nervous system; that is, you have some kind of abnormal nerve sensation coming from your sensory nerves. If these nerve fibers are damaged, you can experience symptoms including:
Numbness
Tingling
Pins and needles
Cold or burning pain
Feeling of ants crawling on your skin
Body parts feel heavy
Hypersensitivity to pain; or, conversely, low pain sensitivity
People with carpal tunnel syndrome have paraesthesia.
Paraesthesia is what happens when the coating around the nerve is damaged, or the nerve is compressed. But how does this happen? Here are the primary causes:
Chemotherapy
Chemical exposure in general
Statins, because they block the production of cholesterol. Your nerves need cholesterol to protect them.
Low fat diet. Your body needs essential fatty acids such as DHA and EPA. Consume wild-caught fish, cod liver oil, or salmon oil.
Toxic levels of a compound called homocysteine, which builds up when you have a deficiency of certain B vitamins, particularly vitamins B1, B6, and B12.
Metformin. A side effect of this diabetes medication is the depletion of vitamin B12.
Seizure medications, because they decrease folate
Drinking an excess of alcohol. If you’re an alcoholic, one side effect is paraesthesia.
But by far the most common cause of paraesthesia is a high carbohydrate diet. By this I mean a diet with too much sugar, or refined carbs such as bread, pasta, crackers, and the like. This is because a high carb diet primarily causes a B vitamin deficiency. And this explains why most diabetics, who are told to follow a high carb diet, have issues with peripheral neuropathy, nerve damage, and paraesthesia.
If a diabetic had high levels of B vitamins in their diet, they would experience fewer symptoms of paraesthesia. So, go on a low carb diet like keto, and start taking B vitamins. The best source is nutritional yeast, but you can also take benfotiamine with it.
Now you see what causes paraesthesia, and how you can remedy it.
