I've always been sensitive to things and I don't have any type of

reaction after I take 4.5mgs of liquid LDN. But I know for me, the

liquid is working much better than any other way of taking LDN. I

do recall feeling some things when I first started the crushed LDN

but I can't recall exactly. May have been a slight headache or

light headed and seems I felt something with my heart but whatever

it was went away quickly and that is why I can't recall for sure. I

really didn't care b/c I knew I would be getting better eventually

on LDN and did.

Also, I think now that anything I take in capsule form, I'm not

getting the full dosage for some reason. I remember years ago

taking a capsule pill and not sure what it was right now but I must

have not drank enough liquids and I burped and powder came up out of

my mouth. That was gross and I wouldn't think the capsule would be

apart that fast and if so, then why don't I absorb what's in it?

What is the vinegar suppose to do? I don't seem to have any reflux

problems nor heartburn etc. Before LDN tho, seems I had more

digestive problems intestinal like blowing up etc and I don't have

much of that anymore. I also tho stopped taking MSM thinking that

could be causing gastrointestinal problems and I took glucosamine

also. I stopped taking acidolphlus also which had many strains of

bacteria. I also stopped drinking decaf coffee b/c reading to decaf

they use nasty chemicals plus being fatigued, I inhaled the

caffeinated coffee but didn't help me with energy at all back then.

Can't remember what else but I eliminated several things I thought

could be irritating my intestines. I have read that when we get older

the acids in the stomach reduce causing problems instead of people

thinking they have to much acids and they pop antiacids daily which

really just causes them more problems. I did try years ago some

digestive enzymes with papaya and bromelin etc but didn't help much

then. I just thought I must have allergies to foods and additives but

I seem to be fine now. I think the MSM and Glucosmine did irriate my

intestines. They did help in the beginning 10 years ago with the pain

I had but last two years, didn't. The pain was constant and extreme

and LDN took care of that thank goodness.

[low dose naltrexone] does anyone recognize this?

Hi all,My boyfriend uses LDN for about 3,5 weeks now and is doing quite well. He uses 4,5 liquid REVIA. But after he takes his dose he always has a slight headache and feels itchy all over his body. It does not really bother him, but I wondered if more people have a similar experience.Thanx, Carolina.

He might need to back down his LDN dose a bit. Try 4.0mg and if still a problem

try 3.5mg or 3.0mg. Most, not all men do better at a little lower dose than

4.5mg...the liquid is also a bit more potent.

- I, too, experienced hair loss...in fact it was rather alarming

for the first 2-3 months. I also addressed the board and only had one

reply from another person experiencing hair loss. I believe it has

now tapered off...maybe a little more than the usual amount (I think I

once read 30 strands a day was normal). I still believe the benefits

of LDN are worth it and I hope I'm right that I'm not losing as much

hair now.
