There is a large collection of peer-reviewed type information available on the effects of certain B vitamins......on the mitigation/control of nerve-related insults. Not the least of which is the long-running research of Dr. Roger Williams (University of Texas).....going back 40 years. ( Dr. Williams work was/is of WORLD CLASS ....in my opinion). The most pronounced beneficial action of B-6 (especially for carpal tunnel syndrome presentations----is claimed to be "effectiveness in improving the function of the synovium sheath surrounding the tendons". Actually, B-6 is one of the additional substances we have included in our ":updated" protocols addressing CTS (carpal tunnel syndrome) and "trigger finger" type insults. The reason I did not mention this in my initial response, is because of the fact that our evaluations---for this inclusion----are of too short a time-span to generate reliable conclusions (two months). However, the results...to date....have been splendid. Our most promising protocol is one in which the volunteer starts with a initial dosage of 300 mg daily, for a period of 3 days....followed by a dosage of 100 mg daily----on a continuing basis. We have achieved total remediation in 11 out of 11 volunteers participating in this experimental protocol. Since adopting a slight variation of this protocol (some time ago) I have been TOTALLY free of ANY "trigger finger" insults....whatsoever. Interestingly, it was my own discomfort from a mild, but continuing presentation of the condition, which prompted our interest in the original evaluations. My congratulations to the individual who posted the excellent results achieved in her personal usage of B-6 type amendments. Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.
p.s. It may be of note to mention B-6 (even in elevated dosage e.g. 400 mg) has displayed no hyper-vitaminosis........whatsoever.
