I will always support natural healing methods over pharmaceuticals.
<smile> But I am not going to throw the baby out with the bath water.
However many natural substances are also chemicals so to me there is not
so much a line in the sand over where the substance originated as in how
it acts in the body. Given a choice I go for the sustainable, available
and safe-er approach.
In the case of Low Dose Naltrexone, if there were a substance that was
natural that would
have the same effect I would be all over it. At this point there is not,
and when I see that
some people with MS might still be walking had they found it a year or
so earlier, I can't help but want to ensure that everyone at least knows
that it is available. There are many who would not consider natural
means until they had experience LDN and the holistic approach of the
practitioners that prescribed it for them. Some doors swing both ways.
And yes I have heard of Epilepsy being cured ! and MS going into
complete remission. As well as the myelin sheath regrowing in MS.
I might also mention that if you take vitamins they are chemicals, many
are synthetic and therefore they are also drugs. Colloidal silver is a
mineral but none of us would have
access to it were it not for batteries, electricity, and many other
artificial substances and
devices.
I think it is easy to get hung up on the small picture and miss that
what is important is that we
heal with the most ease, safety and comfort, not that we never use
something synthetic.

Janet, thanks for your info., but if my arm was broken as you shared,
I would go for manipulation and putting it back in the socket
regardless of the treatment if that was the only option. However,
knowing self I had severe torn ligaments years back, surely surgery
for most, but chiro took time and totally healed and remains that way
decades.
It's a choice and no judgment to anyone's choices, other than one need
to be educated, if they desire, and then decide for themselves. My
husband had EPILepsy confirmed, was on drugs for 10 days, but during
my search alternatives was what we ended up doing. Over 30+ years
back and still healed. No there is no cure for Epilepsy or MS or many
other diseases I have heard, but I can say this worked and I know of
others who had diseases and went alternative with victories. I can't
speak for all. I believe diet is a big factor and also attitude.
I respect your position and not everyone would buy into my thinking.
Glad we can share civilly without judgment. It's all about choices and
then for some who want to dive into further education outside the
doctor's views another choice for them.
Just sharing my perspective and not trying to beat anything to death.
Again, thanks for sharing. I'm sure you will help many by your
opinion as most tend to go towards drug route -- their choice.
It is so confusing for most people to know the right choice as we are
bombarded with this and that works...who knows...I can only research
for hubby and self -- not even my adult kids who have infant acid
reflux babies on drugs....one has damaged vocal cords at a year sadly
and hopefully a miracle will give him his vocal cords. It was not the
drugs, but wrong strength for the damaged vocal cords -- too weak for
his condition...and then they let this innocent baby cry when he woke
up many times during the night probably because of burning to his
cords....they thought he was just wanting to stay up....bad call on
their part, but they don't seem to have any guilt as I would for
sure. I let them make their own choices and they go the drug route
always....they know my position, but I am not the parents...I'm cool
with that...millions of kids have infant acid reflux...very epidemic
too...
Best to ya and thanks.

Although Naltrexone is a drug, the site is not about drug treatment
for MS. It is about how this
unique effect of blocking opioid receptors for 4-6 hours a day results
in a rebound modulation of the immune system. There may also be
effects on oxidative stress through Nitric Oxide and also DNA
replication. The drug is a shift in paradigm. It increases
Met-5-enkephaline which is natural and can be used, aka Opioid Growth
Factor is costs $3,000 a month and does not have the full range of
benefits.
Natural is good, but if you broke your arm would you allow it to heal
naturally?
I'm not saying not to use natural means, many who take LDN do, and the
doctors generally are holistic with an emphasis on diet and
nutriceuticals.
Where there is sensible safe treatment it never hurts to investigate.

drug users and those wanting to go more natural. Just wanted people to
be exposed to both choices and it's really their choice once they have
knowledge as it is power.
