LDN for Parkinson's Disease: Low Dose Naltrexone Kindle Edition

This slim volume captures the essence of what it takes to begin a PD recovery healing journey with LDN. Dr. Robert Rodgers is a dedicated pioneer in exploring healing technologies and treatments and his interview with Lexie Lindstrom provides a treasure of good information. I have seen Lexie in person presenting at several PD Recovery conferences and she is an amazing lady radiating high energy, vitality and good health. I myself have yet to start any PD medications, but if ever I get to that point I will first try LDN and will use this book as my guide. Information includes safety concerns, how to work with your neurologist and places (compounding pharmacies) to obtain your prescription. The only addition I would like to see in the book is a “2014 update on Lexie’s health” – perhaps in the next edition!

interesting book

I bought this book because I Have Parkinson's, I read it in no time, it was easy to read. and very helpful. I recommend it highly. I bought two so I could give one to a friend that is in the same boat.

It is strictly anecdotal ....one person s point of view. NoT enough scientific research for back up

Great to read about the authors experience with LDN and PD.

Very interesting story from a person with PD.

This soft cover 8x10ish " book is in large print. It is written by an individual with no credentials listed. It could be read in 20 min or less. I don't know how to rate it zero stars or I would have.

Doesn't give enough details like how did she get to the dose. How long did it take? How did she taper up to her therapeutic dose? What other meds was she on? How did she taper off those meds? What were the symptoms that she was experiencing? What other supplements was she taking during this process? How much and when? All of this is important as not everyone experiences Parkinson's the same.I bought this for my wife who was diagnosed with Parkinson's 13 years ago. We did not find much useful information for us in this.To be really helpful, people need to provide explicit details and not just generalities.

This effort at extolling the benefits of LDN (low dose Naltrexone) was obviously a half assed effort to get the information out there. Robert Rogers, who is an accomplished man and well thought of in the Parkinson's circles for his work in promoting a positive attitude towards the concept of recovery should be embarrassed at this 28 page meander through the life and times of "Lexy". I purchased two copies: one for myself and one for my doctor. But was too embarrassed to pass such an unprofessional piece of writing on to a medical professional. The writing is full of generalities and casual usage of language which is not helpful in presenting the case for LDN to be taken seriously by professional caregivers.One example of this type of babble is where Lexy wanders through speculation of why she would shop at a goodwill store rather than Nordstrom's, which has nothing to do with anything of relevance with regard to LDNI guess I was looking for information about what specifically we should be looking for in terms of compounding, and possibly a chapter written by Skip on the importance of correct compounding. A little Hand book on the ins and outs of Naltrexone. A one spot stop to get all the relevant information anyone would need to have a successful experience with LDN.So if your looking for a piece of writing to take up and defend your right to try lLDN, or to justify it as a second witness for your doctor, look elsewhere. This is not the booklet you want. As a matter of fact, the only reason you would want this booklet is because you are deaf and could not listen to Robert Rogers on his internet radio show. Even the cover of this booklet screams AMATEUR WORK! This "book" is badly in need of a good editing , or maybe just throw it out and start again.

It gives hope to all PD sufferers.

Very interesting. I like it.

A useful pointer to LDN, but little more than a pamphlet and not worth £6. You can get significantly more information from the LDN Resarch website... and it's FREE!
