LDN - Pamela

September 8, 2011

Hi Pamela,

Here's an extract from an email I received from Dr Zagon, hope this helps:-

Once one realizes that LDN is nothing more than an instrument to evoke the

opioids (and receptors), and these opioids/receptors are what is really

doing the good things, then they start to realize that less is more. It is

interesting that the 4.5 mg story came out of the Bihari era. When I first

recommended 3-10 mg to him, I suggested he take a 50 mg tablet and take 1/5

or less. The next day he called me and said that it worked splendidly in the

sense he felt wonderful when he arose in the morning. After that I lost

touch for a while, and only when patients were not responding to LDN did he

send them my way. The vast majority needed to reduce their 4.5 mg to 3 mg.

Some had to take 3 mg every other day - or every 3rd day. Again, this was

counter to these folks thinking that it was LDN that did the trick.

So, keep spreading the real story. And that includes the myth that

LDN needs to be taken in the evening. I told Bihari this because I reasoned

that for 4-6 hr the patient would be without endorphins that would work (the

naltrexone would interfere with function in making one feel good). So I

advised him to take this in the evening and sleep through the possible

uncomfortable feeling of endorphin deprivation. This led Bihari and

followers to a story about circadian rhythm as the reason. Nonsense, the

endorphins - and especially OGF (met-enkephalin) does not have a circadian

rhythm. And people who took my advice and used it in the morning found out

that they did just as well.

Best,

Jayne Crocker
