I have heard that Capsaicin can help with neuropathy symptoms in cream form especially if it is added to lidocaine. Never heard that supplements would help with neuropathy symptoms. There are lots of claims to health benefits (like all supplements), but I would think if you had ulcers or other stomach issues, it could be a bit like eating spicy food.
