Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) in Autoimmune Diseases: Recent Research Findings
Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) in Autoimmune Diseases: Recent Research Findings

Autoimmune diseases are a complex group of conditions in which the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells and tissues. While treatment options exist to manage symptoms, there is no known cure for autoimmune diseases. However, recent research has shed light on the potential benefits of Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) in managing these conditions. In this blog post, we'll explore some of the latest research findings on the use of LDN in autoimmune diseases.

Epilepsy is a broad term used to describe people who suffer multiple seizures in their life time. Seizures are defined as sudden, uncontrolled electrical brain activity. Depending on how the brain looks at these electrical currents a person may change behavior, display abnormal movement or even lose consciousness. Low Dose Naltrexone has shown promise as an alternative treatment option for seizure disorders.

Naltrexone is classified as an opioid antagonist. Naltrexone blocks opiate drugs from binding to the opioid receptors, which can result in increased endorphin and enkephalin release. This causes a biological response that results in reduced signaling and release of inflammatory substances, nerve cell inflammation and autoimmune mediators. LDN has been studied across a wide variety of autoimmune conditions and cancer diagnosis.
