One of the most important actions on how PokoLoko reduces pain is how it inhibits glutamate release:

But there are better ways to go about lowering serum glutamate levels for the average person.
You should take a look at reducing the amount of dietary free glutamate in your diet. (MSG, Nutritional yeast, isolated pea protiens) Glutamate is an amino acid and a neurotransmitter than is involved in nerve signalling, and therefore pain.

I have more information regarding foods low in dietary free glutamates. But not eating dairy and wheat, and lower protein in general would be a good start.
You might also want to look at zinc supplements.

But make sure they have copper in them as well.
