Product Description
Naltrexone is an opiate antagonist drug developed in the 1970s and approved by the FDA in 1984 for opiate and drug abuse treatment. When used at much lower doses in an off-label protocol referred to as low dose naltrexone (LDN), the drug has been shown to halt disease progression in Crohn's disease and certain cancers, to reduce symptoms in multiple sclerosis and autism, and to improve numerous autoimmune and neurodegenerative conditions, including Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Grounded in clinical and scientific research, this book describes the history of naltrexone, its potential therapeutic uses, its effects on the immune system, its pharmacological properties, and how the drug is administered. It also lists fillers and compounding pharmacies, doctors who prescribe LDN, and patient resources, and includes interviews with LDN patients and researchers.

Such texts are greatly needed on the new near-costless, harmless treatments and cures. LDN balances the immune system, whether hyper or hypo. If you suffer from MS, cancer (or a candidate), AIDS, etc. please consider this $1.00 a day miracle.
 good information for those thinking of LDN October 17, 2009

After trying repeatedly to get into a class for LDN and failing I decided to buy this book. It seemed thorough about the treatment and had lots of supporting documentation. I gave it to my GP to get her on board (my naturopath prescribed the LDN.)
The Promise of Low Dose Naltrexone--excellent book September 8, 2009
Debora L. Ireland (down state Illinois)
A perfect book for the serious minded patient who is researching treatment for immune system mediated diseases. This field is growing so swiftly that this book could already use an update, but it is by far the most detailed and up to date book of its subject. It is understandable by both doctors and their patients. A must-read for those whose chronic illnesses include MS, Crohn's disease and its relatives, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and the major mental illnesses. Highly recommended.
Please help to educate yourself, use this book. April 27, 2009
Allen Bender (East Bethel, MN United States)
This is a great book to learn valuable information that is hard to find and may some day help you or someone you know. Easy to read and understand if you are willing to learn some terms and do a little research.
LDN Book Review April 6, 2009
P. Fox (CA)
This is a wonderful book, full of information about the history and current uses of LDN (Low Dose Naltrexone), for all sorts of illnesses. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their health, from auto-immune diseases to allergies.
