Experiences w/ nerve-regenerative compounds: Hericium, colostrum, amla ??

Hi again, fellow EHSers. Found this link on stuff to help w/ nerve damage. Anyone have experience w/ these? If you  have a moment, could you describe results (neg./pos.; doesn't matter):

Step V: Regeneration: Once chronic infection sites have been eliminated (or concurrent with the anti-infective  process), many regenerative nutraceuticals can be used to promote repair of damaged nerve tissue.  Use of Hericium and other nerve-regenerative compounds, such as colostrum, amla and other adaptogenic herbs, can help the individual regain lost neuromotor/brain function to varying degrees.

Gilligan Joy, who wrote his "Overcoming Electrical Sensitivity" website,
focused a lot of his attention on nerve regeneration:

Mark,

Do you have a list of what supplements you took to heal? I am looking for  a roadmap to heal the nerves. Each path may be a bit different. I know you have chelated. Is that the only way?

 Mine may be related to a viral issue.

Did Gillian Joy take every one of these are in stages?  Of course if we're low in B-12 we have to correct that. I need some steps.

Over the years I have tried countless supplements... and in some cases
it's hard to tell which were helping, and which were not.  Except for the
few obvious things, which I have reported on here in the past.

I don't really know how much "nerve healing" was involved in my
supplement regimen.  I actually haven't taken very much of what's
on Gilligan Joy's list.  And I'm not sure that he took all that stuff
either -- I think he was simply trying to compile a list of stuff to try.

I think my problems were mercury + parasites.  And although
much improved over the years, I'm definitely not done.

peripheral nervous system has the capability for regeneration, much
research still needs to be done to optimize the environment for maximum
regrowth potential.

The wild type mouse showed a significant up regulation of mRNA
expressing N-acetylglucosamine 6-O-sulfotransferase-1 at the site of
cortical injury. However, in the N-acetylglucosamine
6-O-sulfotransferase-1 deficient mice, the expression of keratan sulfate
 was significantly decreased when compared to the wild type mice.
Similarly, glial scar formation was significantly reduced in the
N-acetylglucosamine 6-O-sulfotransferase-1 mice, and as a result, nerve
regeneration was less inhibited.[9]
 Other inhibitory factors
NOGO –The protein family Nogo, particularly Nogo-A,
 has been identified as an inhibitor of remyelination in the CNS,
especially in autoimmune mediated demyelination, such as found in
Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE) and Multiple Sclerosis
(MS). Nogo A functions via either its amino-Nogo terminus through an
unknown receptor, or by its Nogo-66 terminus through NgR1, p75, TROY or LINGO1. Antagonising this inhibitor results in improved remyelination, as it is involved in the RhoA pathway.[12][13]NI-35 a non-permissive growth factor from myelin.MAG –Myelin Associated Glycoprotein acts via the receptors NgR2, GT1b, NgR1, p75, TROY and LINGO1.OMgp –Oligodendrocyte Myelin glycoproteinEphrin B3 functions through the EphA4 receptor and inhibits remyelination.[5]Sema 4D(Semaphorin 4D) functions through the PlexinB1 receptor and inhibits remyelination.[5]Sema 3A (Semaphorin 3A) is present in the scar that forms in both central nervous system [14] and peripheral nerve injuries [15] and contributes to the outgrowth-inhibitory properties of these scarsIt goes on to talk about surgery for peripheral nerve regeneration.

I'm not saying it'll necessarily do any good, but N-Acetyl Glucosamine (NAG) is a non-prescription supplement that you can order from vitamin/health food stores.
