The LDN Book: How a Little-Known Generic Drug Low Dose Naltrexone Could Revolutionize Treatment for Autoimmune Diseases, Cancer, Autism, Depression, and More

The LDN Book by Elsegood
The audience is for people who enjoy science details. I love Chapter 2. This person understands what I have learned by experience. Chapter 5 also was awesome. It says to not use TSH for thyroid...not helpful and it explains why. This book was very validating and I enjoy the science details. LDN may help people avoid other drugs since LDN may help heal the root cause for brain/body health issues....Celiac. LDN is for Celiac health issues...thyroid/cancer/MS/Diabetes/ADD/losing hair/depression/fibromylagia/alcoholism/addictions etc. (Book: Dangerous Grains lists health issues due to Celiac). Tests may not work to diagnose Celiac. LDN helps block hidden gluten. A person still needs to try to not eat gluten since a person can override the low dose of LDN. LDN helps heal the gut lining/helps the immune system work right. It costs about $1 from a compounding pharmacy/Alternative doctor usually. 3 -4.5mg of LDN may help taken at night usually or in the morning if LDN keeps a person awake. LDN is stronger at night when opioid receptors kick in between 2-4 am. LDN in the morning helps, but not as much. LDN lasts 18 hours. LDN helps my brain/heal my intestines/helps my adrenals/liver/eyes/hearing/personality etc. LDN is a miracle. I am not ok without LDN since hidden gluten hurts me. 23% of supplements may have hidden gluten. Gluten maybe in meat basting/some spices...food in a box/bag/label,...lotions etc..Certified gluten free may have 20ppm of gluten which is too much. Microscopic gluten hurts me...takes 1 1 /2 months to heal from. Without LDN I feel like I am dying. I have MS and recently Lyme/coinfections. With LDN I am stable and strong. I get a cellulose filler. Ca filler may block LDN and corn starch filler maybe GMO and corn hurts me. I take my thyroid medicine..wait an hour...take my LDN and wait another hour before I eat. I don't want food to block my medicine. LDN may help 99% of MS people and 85% of HIV people. LDN may help Lyme. People who catch Lyme may have been Celiac which lowers their immune system so Lyme grew and was hard to get rid of until they get Celiac help and LDN.I need no gluten/dairy/soy/sugar/GMO..take vitamins/good oils/minerals...probiotic..LDN..detoxing for my Celiac/MS/Lyme. LDN at night dehydrates me..acts like a diuretic and then constipation. LDN may have not have side effects for most people I know. It is a small white capsule and works like a miracle. Some people eat Paleo to avoid hidden gluten/gluten. I eat Celiac and still eat rice which has a 5 for gluten.This is what I do my my Celiac/MS/Lyme..short/long version:No gluten/dairy/soy/sugar/GMO and vitamins/good oils, LDN and detoxing help me. Vit D3 5000IU, zinc 50mg if detoxing, 2000mg fish oil , 20000mg evening primrose oil. 2000 mg lecithin, Phosphatidylserine/DMAE, krill oil, CLA, Coenzyme Q10, Rhodiola, Mg citrate 400mg, Vit C, 5000mcg of biotin, Nature's Plus- Source of life multiple, HCl and enzymes with meals, dairy free probiotic, Vit B12 methylcobalamin shot/spray/under the tongue kind/intrinsic factor kind, MTHF folate, coenyzme Q10, rhodiola, may help brain/body/thyroid/depression/immune system and more. Gluten is wheat/barley/rye..oats may act like gluten with avenin. GMO corn/soy/canola oil may hurt. Amour thyroid maybe needed since gluten may made antibodies to the thyroid. Coenzymated B vitamins far from synthetic kind make make me calm.Sunlight (helps the immune system and helps to heal the gut lining),exercise, organic food, good water..not tap water, cooking by scratch pure food..... no food in a box/bag/premade/label/restaurant which may help avoid hidden gluten. Certified gluten free food may have 20ppm of gluten...too much. Nuts not sold in the shell/meat basting/some spices may have hidden gluten and lotion/make up etc. One restaurant cooks special for me...rice/veg/tea/extra mushrooms (no meat since the woks may have MSG/gluten in them).EDTA/DMPS IV chelations from an Alternative doctor, 600mg of cilantro, organic sulfur, Now brand- Detox support, Far Infrared Sauna and more may help detox. Hair tests show good minerals and heavy metals. Heavy metals can block thyroid and other chemical reactions in the body/brain.LDN may help block hidden gluten/heal the gut lining and help the immune system, but the Celiac diet is still needed. 100% no gluten..no hidden or microscopic gluten may help. Cutting back on gluten or cheating by eating gluten hurts the immune system. It may take 1 1/2 months to heal the gut lining after getting hidden gluten.Amour thyroid has some T3 and Calcitonin. Synthroid is only T4..may not convert to T3. Zn/Se/enough iron/strong probiotic may help convert T4 to T3 for thyroid.Alternative doctors/chiropractors/acupuncturists and more may help with health/vitamins etc.Longer version:[...]

It has changed my practice of medicine
The first chapter is the same in both Volume 1 and Volume 2. It elucidates the mechanism of LDN and is the foundation of the whole idea.I was particularly impressed with the thyroid chapter. As a American-trained medical doctor and avid reader, i can assure you that most of the physicians in this country are unaware of the physiology and pathophysiology presented here (which is quite frightening, frankly).I have been prescribing LDN since finishing the first chapter and have had fantastic results in some of my most difficult patients; particularly Celiac, fibromyalgia, and rheumatoid arthritis.But I feel sorry for the American public. Your doctors do not read after they finish residency, and what little they know has been force fed to them by the pharmaceutical industry which has no interest in you. They will never think for themselves or risk doing something thats not written in a "guideline."i digress...the book is great and ive read both volumes twice. The first chapter would suffice for the layperson

Incredible book
This book was so much more than I bargained for. It is so filled with research, data, and practical application as well as resources. The podcast that you can get through Amazon prime a great too on LDN. ❤️ I can’t wait for book 3 to come out, it will have more information on other conditions that LDN is helpful with. I really wish they would do an audiobook because so many people have dropped in their thinking abilities due to Covid and Long-Haul that it would make it so much more helpful for them. I recommend that people that can’t read have friends and or Family read it for them. Thanks for all of the doctors in for the wonderful woman who started this foundation to continue education and functional medicine that we can afford, and that is actually safe and doesn’t require us to get additional medication’s to take care of side effects. Such a novel idea.
