Re: adolescent use

[Guest guest]

The amount of LDN used is miniscule compared to that used in testing. I'm

sure others here will have numbers, I just wrote the issue off because the

amount we use is so incredibly minor compared to what they used when testing

the effect on the liver.

From what I've read so far

1- at 300mg on mice they get liver damage

2-at 50mg taken 3-4 times a day the alcoholics and addicts have bad

side effets and must have their liver checked

3- 1.5 to 4.5mg there is no problem. Dr. Bihari had some of his

patients who have been on LDN for years and they had on liver damage.

4- You must not forget that at these low doses, the LDN doesn't work

on the same level as it does at 50mg or 300mg.

5- they give this amount to babies borned from dope addict moms.
