22 Nov Neuropathy Relief Center of Miami Research Review: Contribution of peripheral neuropathy to poor bone health in the feet of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34568958/
Aims: To evaluate the impact of peripheral neuropathy on bone health in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: Participants with T2DM were grouped according to the presence of peripheral neuropathy as assessed by vibration perception threshold (VPT). Recruitment ensured groups were balanced for age, sex and body mass index (BMI). Bone health was measured by calcaneal quantitative ultrasound (QUS) and compared between groups. Calcaneal QUS parameters were correlated across the cohort with VPT and other prespecified variables.
Results: Thirty-four participants (17 per group) were included with mean age 68 ± 12 years, 47% male, with median BMI 29.9 (IQR 26.9-32.7) kg/m2.
The peripheral neuropathy group had significantly lower mean Stiffness Index (87 ± 12 versus 101 ± 16, p = 0.01), Speed of Sound (1542 ± 28 versus 1574 ± 34 m/s, p < 0.01), and a trend towards lower Broadband Ultrasound Attenuation (113 ± 10 versus 120 ± 12 dB/MHz, p = 0.07). Pedal bone health asymmetry was not a significant feature in those with peripheral neuropathy. All calcaneal QUS parameters correlated
negatively with VPT, although significance of the relationship with Broadband Ultrasound Attenuation was nullified if controlled for diabetes duration or time on insulin. Broadband Ultrasound Attenuation showed independent negative correlation with diabetes duration.
Conclusions: People with T2DM and peripheral neuropathy have poorer bone health as measured by calcaneal QUS than those without peripheral neuropathy, independent of age, sex and BMI.

Vibration Neuropathy Therapy 30Hz Benefits:
1) Increases bone mass and density through osteoblast stimulation aka bone building cells.
2) Stimulates and pumps the lymphatic systems, detoxing the body and improving immunity through muscular contractions.
3) Accelerates the healing of damaged tendons, muscles, bones, fascia, and ligaments at a cellular level.
4) Increases circulation that bring nutrients and oxygen damage tissues to stimulate and promote healing.
5) Improves the immune function through increase T lymphocytes circulation by the lymphatic system
6) Improves and increases spinal and extremity flexibility
7) Decreases inflammation and pain in the spine and extremities
Dr. Alfonso‘s Neuropathy Treatment Protocol utilizes 8 specialized treatments designed to improve the supply of oxygen, eliminate waste, and improve nutrition to damaged nerves. Increased circulation to the damaged peripheral nerves combined with treatments to stimulate peripheral nerve cell regeneration, and repair.
