Dental Nerve Health

 

 

 

Having the constant feeling of pins and needles in your teeth, lips, or tongue or the sense that something is burning in those areas or even a sensation of pain, can be helped with nerve health. These are the issues that can happen when there is a miscommunication between the nerves in the body and the brain.

These vitamins and nutrients have been shown to promote healthy nerve impulses.

1. Promote a healthy myelin sheath and overall nerve structure
2. Provide powerful and comprehensive antioxidant protection
3. Promote a healthy inflammatory response
4. Promote healthy circulation for those already within normal range

These vitamins and nutrients are a comprehensive combination of herbs, amino acids, vitamins, and other nutrients that target the peripheral nervous system to promote health.

B Vitamins

The full spectrum of B vitamins helps maintain healthy nerves. These vitamins are important for nervous system function. We know that vitamin B inadequacy can lead to nerve damage in the hands and feet. Diabetics may suffer less tingling and numbness caused by diabetes when they supplement with some B vitamins, particularly B6 and B12. A study presented in June 2009 at the American Diabetes Association's Annual Scientific Sessions found a connection between B12 deficiency and peripheral neuropathy, a disorder resulting in poor communication between the brain and spinal cord. 
B6 is particularly important. Not only does this vitamin provide energy to the body, it also has a natural, calming effect. Vitamin B6 deficiency has been connected to neurological conditions.
Vitamin B6 is commonly recommended for patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. Swelling of the myelin in the wrist may sometimes be caused by a lack of B6. Swelling and tingling in other parts of the body may also be caused by low levels of this critical vitamin, according to vitamin B6 researcher Dr. John Marion Ellis. 
Vitamin B12 is the most essential nutrient for the nervous system. Deficiency of this vitamin can lead to peripheral neuropathy. People who get too little vitamin B12 can exhibit weakness, twitching, pain, numbness, tingling, muscle cramps and burning sensation. 
Vitamin B1 also helps reduce anxiety and has a calming effect on the nerves. And vitamin B3 helps produce brain chemicals and, in large doses, has a calming effect.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C has many benefits, and relieving anxiety is one of them. Vitamin C aids in healthy brain chemistry and adrenal gland function. In large doses, it has a significant tranquilizing effect.

Calcium and magnesium

These essential minerals help combat nervous tension. Calcium has natural and gentle tranquilizing properties. And magnesium helps foster relaxation by reliving anxiety and nervousness. Magnesium also helps relieve muscle spasms, which is another reason athletes need to be sure and get enough of it. Physical activity and sweating aren’t the only factors that lower magnesium stores. Alcohol also depletes the body’s magnesium, leading to irritability and tension

Gamma-Linolenic Acid

Gamma-linolenic acid is an omega-6 essential fatty acid. As with omega-3s, omega-6 fatty acids help to promote brain function, normal growth, skin, hair and bone health and to regulate metabolism and the reproductive system. The University of Maryland reports GLA has been shown to reduce the nerve pain in people who suffer from neuropathy due to diabetes. The University of Maryland says GLA can be found in evening primrose, black currants, borage and fungal oils. A doctor can help you determine if you are deficient in GLA.\

There are many products and supplements that will help nerve issues and speaking with a pharmacist who will guide you to the right supplement that they provide.
