ImpactModerate impact
The discussions suggest that the article could influence personal treatment choices and raise awareness about drug repurposing, implying a noticeable impact.
Abstract in brief
Low dose Naltrexone (LDN) helped about 75% of IBD patients experience clinical improvement, with 25% reaching remission, showing potential as an alternative treatment for those not responding to traditional therapies.
LDN appears to directly enhance the health of the gut lining by promoting wound healing and decreasing cellular stress in the intestinal epithelium, which may help restore barrier function.
The study suggests that LDN is a safe and effective option for difficult-to-treat IBD patients, addressing issues like mucosal stress and impaired healing that contribute to disease persistence.]

@StenHelmfrid Linné classified some species wrong. In biomed the biology is studied, not the billable code index (icd-10, icpc-2(b)).
In "your" mind naltroxene helps drug addicts. Why is it used partly successful in pwme, fibro, ibs?

@chydorina so, why does low dose naltrexone help in "classic psychological diseases" like ibs and fibro and me?
I didn't read this paper, just part of it. Brainfog. I did however find it bcs i know things. BTW, somebody may update the me-pedia article on ldn.

@ninapaley I have autoimmunity and have benefited greatly from LDN, as discussed in this article.
I also have benefited greatly from healing my gut with the GAPS diet.
Both prescribed by my naturopath.
