No More Colds

"I started taking LDN nearly two years ago after reading about its immune benefits in Dr. Whitaker’s newsletter. I didn’t think much about it until I realized that I haven’t had any colds or other illnesses since I started taking LDN. I have always been healthy, but I usually get two or three colds or sinus infections a year. I’m not 100% sure it’s LDN, but I’m not about to stop taking it to find out!"

Adieu, Allergies

"For years I was plagued with allergies: chronic sneezing, runny nose, congestion, the whole nine yards. Then I started taking LDN. The results were remarkable. Within two days, my symptoms improved dramatically. LDN works better than any allergy drug."

Improvements in Lymphedema

At the advice of her Whitaker Wellness physician, Nancy began taking LDN as an overall immune booster because she’d had cancer in her pelvic region five years ago. Most of the lymph nodes in both of her legs were removed, and she underwent a course of radiation therapy. About a year later, Nancy developed a severe case of lymphedema in her right leg.

Lymphedema is a chronic and often painful condition marked by a buildup of lymph fluid that often affects cancer patients who have undergone lymph node removal and radiation. Nancy’s leg was so enlarged and heavy that she had difficulty putting on her pants, and her shoe left deep indentations on her foot. Her mobility was limited, and at times sticky lymphatic fluid would seep through her skin. Her conventional doctors told her there was nothing they could do for her.

But within days of starting LDN, the lymphedema in her leg diminished noticeably. Her success inspired fellow employee Bobbi, who’d had 21 lymph nodes removed from her armpit during breast cancer surgery and developed lymphedema in her left arm. She’s been taking LDN and reports considerably less heaviness and achiness, as well as a loss of one-half inch in the circumference of her arm.

Stopped Shingles Outbreaks

“Shingles made my life a misery. In a year and a half period, I had eight outbreaks, and the pain was awful. But since I began taking low-dose naltrexone, I haven’t had a single episode. That was about two years ago. I am very grateful for this therapy.”

Put the Brakes on Cold Sores

“Before I began taking LDN, I used to get cold sores whenever I was under a lot of stress. I’d get them every other month or so. Then I got an LDN prescription for its overall immune benefits. Much to my surprise, my cold sores completely went away. I haven’t had a single outbreak for two years!”

Calming an Irritable Bowel

“I have been dealing with irritable bowel syndrome for years. My main symptom is diarrhea, and I used to average 30 episodes a day. As you can imagine, this was very hard to deal with. I actually had to plan my outings and even my driving routes around bathroom locations in case I needed to make a sudden stop. After I started taking LDN, my episodes decreased to eight per day. This may still sound like a lot to most people, but for me, it’s been a dramatic improvement in how I feel and my quality of life. I would recommend LDN to anyone with this condition.”
