There's a new "miracle drug" that effectively treats autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis (MS), lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia and Crohn's.
The FDA-approved, well-studied drug, naltrexone, is used for addiction treatment in dosages of 50 mg and up. In a tiny dosage, only 3 to 4.5 mg, Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) has been found to relieve the symptoms and stop the progression of many autoimmune diseases - long term, without side effects and for less than a dollar a day.
How is LDN so effective for a variety of different autoimmune conditions, from MS to fibromyalgia?
According to the American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association, 1 in 5 Americans has some type of autoimmune disease. The cost of treating these common autoimmune diseases has exploded to more than $100 billion a year.
Award-winning health author and blogger, Julia Schopick, shares case studies on LDN, research findings and valuable information about this lifesaving miracle drug.
