Guest guest Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 Would anyone be able to send me the links for the demonstrated effectiveness of LDN for crohn's patients so I could bring it to my next Dr.'s appointment? I joined their yahoo group and sent out a few messages requesting it, but no one has gotten back to me and that was 10 days ago. I couldn't find them on the yahoo groups page either.

The drug companies won't fund studies for something that's off-patent because they can't make any money. So I don't have any actual studies to point you to, though I think there are a few. I would suggest you might look at the LDN data base, where patients list their condition, diagnosis, treatments before LDN and after. There's a section on Crohn's; https://ldndatabase.dabbledb.com/page/other/YxfKeofL# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Jill runs these studies and is now a strong advocate for LDN. This also lists other studies. See: http://www.ldninfo.org/ldn_trials.htmn-- Now available.
