re TIMING OF DOSE & METABOLISM & CAPSULE FILLER

[Guest guest]

I emailed the following post before I left for work this morning but

I cannot see it anywhere so I'll re-post it,

Hi Belinda,

re TIMING OF DOSE & METABOLISM & CAPSULE FILLER

We all understand LDN is most effective when the dose is taken

between 10pm and 2am, however; I don't believe

this is the only variable factor necessitating consideration when

targeting optimum efficacy.

Metabolism is another variable factor that must be considered,

especially when working with such small doses.

Each person's metabolism is different - we metabolise foods,

medications, etc differently.

Also, a person's normal metabolism can change over short or long

periods of time - weeks, days, even hours -

in response to other variable lifestyle factors such as changes in

diet, exercise, supplements, medications,

etc.

Antioxidants, for example; as supplements, detoxes, or even teas or

dark chocolate; can speed metabolism

(speed exit).

This means it's unlikely every person can take advantage of the full

four-hour (10pm to 2am) medication window

and achieve optimum efficacy.

Perhaps ...

a) Those with a slow metabolism may benefit most from the earliest

dosage window for LDN.

Those with a fast metabolism may benefit most from the latest

dosage window for LDN.

You know your own body better than anyone else - so please give

consideration to your own normal metabolism,

and consider anything that could be impacting metabolisation of LDN.

Speed of metabolism is also relevant to choice of capsule fillers:

Some time back now it was determined that

calcium carbonate was not the ideal filler in LDN capsules because it

had a tendency to compact and therefore,

could slow down release of the active ingredient (Naltrexone). For

those who already had a slow metabolism,

you can see how a delay in the release of the active ingredient could

very well be counterproductive.

To summarise, in my (unqualified) opinion, the bottom line here is

this ...

1. As the Naltrexone dose is minute, the timing of each person's dose

will be dependent on multiple variable

factors that must be given due consideration if optimum efficacy is

to be achieved.

2. Antioxidants (and anything else that may interfere with

metabolising LDN) should not be taken in the

evening near to when you take your LDN as they may negatively impact

metabolisation of such a small dose of

Naltrexone.

Kind regards,

Cris
