Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I have been following the LDN group and the websites with much interest. Recently diagnosed with Crohn's disease and am looking for something relatively safe to treat what is apparently pretty serious condition. What I haven't been clear on is the mechanism of how LDN works. I see that it is working for many people. But if Crohn's disease is thought to be due to an overactive immune response in the digestive tract and if LDN stimulates the immune system further is that safe? Any comments appreciated.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Welcome Suzanne, I just sent you over about 1/4th of the saved chats I have that people talk about how they think LDN works.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 What I suppose you mean is the Metabolic treatment of autoimmune diseases. T1 and T2 are thyroid hormones aren't they? That's what I am kind of doing for my fibro. I want to get somewhere with that before I try low dose naltrexson. I just noticed that someone is spending $45 a month on the stuff. LDN helps but is it enough? Just my 2 cents. ann [sPAM] Re: [low dose naltrexone] Re: Why would a company not put together a pill for autoimmune disorders? one way to see it is to say that when you get crohn your immune system is out of balance.the LDN helps to regulate it.if you want to know more you must look for the the T1 and T2 theory with relation to the autoimmune.> > > > Hey Red, it may just be me, but I can't get that link to work...> > > > > > > > > > > >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 It makes sense to me. Think about it. By taking a little tiny bit of Naltrexone (thus LDN-low dose) you block your endorphins for a short period of time and your body is tricked into producing a large number of endorphins. Now if you take a large amount of Naltrexone (50mg or so) then your block your endorphins all day long. You should have the opposite effect and your body might suffer from not having endorphins. I wonder if large dosage of Naltrexone would be considered an immune suppressant? I know nothing about chemistry, so just my very limited non-medical an non-scientific thoughts.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Hi Celia, In high doses naltrexone has an effect which is opposite to the low dose effect. If someone taking HDN for alcoholism, say, has a precancerous condition that condition will be accelerated by HDN. The OGF/OGFr axis which in LDN turns off the switch in the cell cycle preventing cell proliferation, in HDN that same mechanism causes the switch to be turned on. I'll go through my papers and I'll send whatever links I have but I fear I have mainly PDFs so I'll send those to you privately.
