BACKGROUND: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), a prevalent microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus, poses a substantial clinical burden and has a detrimental impact on quality of life. This triple-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial investigated the effects of an 8-week supplementation with selenium-enriched yeast on DPN symptoms, neuropathy severity, pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance (PAB), and sexual satisfaction in individuals aged 40-70 years with DPN.
METHODS: Fifty participants were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a daily 200 μg dose of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast-derived selenium (in a 500 mg capsule) or a placebo. Outcomes were assessed using validated tools: The Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) for symptoms, the Toronto Clinical Scoring System (TCSS) for severity, the Larson Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire (LSSQ), and serum PAB levels via a specialized assay. Analyses followed a modified intention-to-treat approach, with ANCOVA and logistic regression used to adjust for confounders.
RESULTS: Post-intervention, both groups exhibited significant reductions in neuropathy symptoms (selenium: p < 0.001; placebo: p = 0.001), though intergroup differences were non-significant [adjusted mean difference (aMD): -0.92; 95% CI: -1.9 to 0.10]. Neuropathy severity decreased significantly in the selenium group (p = 0.002) but not in the placebo group. While PAB levels declined markedly with selenium (p = 0.001), the between-group difference was non-significant (aMD: -32.1; 95% CI: -66.02 to 1.87). Sexual satisfaction scores improved significantly in the selenium group versus the placebo group (aMD: 8.51; 95% CI: 0.74 to 16.28).
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that selenium-enriched yeast supplementation may enhance biochemical markers (PAB) and quality-of-life parameters (sexual satisfaction) in DPN. However, its limited efficacy in improving neuropathy-specific outcomes underscores the need for larger trials to clarify its therapeutic potential.
