Re: LDN and alcohol: a newbie question

[Guest guest]

I've never had a problem with alcohol and LDN and I've been on it for 2 1/2 yrs.

YMMV.

If you check the archives you'll find that LDN doesn't make much if any

difference to most people and their use of alcohol. However, Dr Skip

Lenz (pharmacist) has recently reported on someone on LDN who had a

severe reaction to alcohol (vomiting) after starting LDN. I've never

been a big drinker but still have the occasional red wine or three with

no problem.

Started with 4.5mg last week, and had the expected trouble with sleep.

I've reduced to 3-3.5 and am doing better, but before I did that, I did

something stupid the fourth night: celebrated with a couple of cocktails

(which disrupts my sleep ANYway these days!), and took a whole 4.5mg

capsule.

I didn't sleep all night.

Will I be able to tolerate a cocktail once my body acclimates?

Thanks!
