What Is Naltrexone?
We will never recommend a treatment or therapy that hasn’t been tested and trusted by experts, with research and results to prove it. Naltrexone is no exception! Originally developed in the 1980s, Naltrexone was FDA approved to treat opioid and alcohol addiction. Soon, doctors discovered that at lower dose, it had a completely different effect. Research showed that in doses of only 0.5 to 4.5 mg a day, Naltrexone offered immune-modulating benefits, as well as reduced inflammation associated with chronic disease.
LDN, or Low Dose Naltrexone, soon became a key player in the field of longevity and healthy aging field.
How Does it Work?
As we mentioned, Naltrexone behaves differently in the body when utilized as an anti-aging agent. While high dose Naltrexone is used to block opioid receptors and reduce the body’s demand for them, at low doses, it triggers a response called Endorphin Rebound Effect. This temporary increase of endorphins reduces systemic inflammation, supports tissue repair, boosts mood and cognitive function, and enhances immune function.
This response regulates an overactive immune system, causing a reduction in chronic inflammation, which plays a key role in the signs and symptoms of aging. Naltrexone’s anti-inflammatory effects help to protect against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s by calming microglial cells, the brain’s inflammatory immune center.
Many studies are reporting that LDN can improve insulin sensitivity and support thyroid health, even when participants are experiencing autoimmune dysfunction that’s causing thyroid irregularity.
Low Dose Naltrexone is making great strides in our understanding of and battle against the signs of aging. The most frequently reported evidence of LDN’s efficacy include:
- Improved Mental Clarity, Mood, and Sleep
- Slowed Progression of Age-Related Diseases
- A Significant Reduction in Inflammatory Responses
- Improved Immune System Regulation
- Reduced Symptoms of Existing Autoimmune and Inflammatory Conditions
- Reduced Fatigue and Improved Stress Response
- Improved Pain Management
Are You a Candidate for Low Dose Naltrexone Therapy?
At Anti-Aging Northwest, we know that there are no one-size-fits-all solutions to longevity, health, and wellness. It’s important to tailor each client’s protocol to their unique needs. Ideal candidates for Low Dose Naltrexone are those who are already on a longevity journey. They fuel their bodies well, prioritize rest, and are in pursuit of therapies to support their overall wellness.
Those who have the most to gain from LDN are adults seeking to improve immune function, manage chronic pain, or combat inflammation. They may see improvements in the symptoms and side effects of chronic conditions like lupus, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and multiple sclerosis.
Naltrexone will not take the place of your current medications for chronic illness or inflammation, but your provider can help you decide if adding Naltrexone therapy to your existing protocol will reduce symptoms and lead to a healthier, fuller, longer life.
What Are the Risks?
Naltrexone is very well tolerated, especially in the low doses utilized in anti-aging protocol, but some people may experience mild side effects which should ease or subside with dose adjustment, or changing what time of day you take your dose. These include vivid dreams (which can be mitigated by simply changing the hour you take your dose), mild headache, transient nausea, or mild anxiety or restlessness in the early days of treatment.
You should not utilize LDN if you are currently taking an opioid. Naltrexone was originally formulated to curb opioid addiction, and can block the effects of oxycodone, morphine, hydrocodone, and other opiates.
Naltrexone has been safely used for decades, and your experts at Anti-Aging Northwest are happy to help you find the right dose for your journey.
