Low Dose Naltrexone. Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist used to treat opiate, smoking, and alcohol abuse at full dose. Some years ago it was discovered that used in small/low doses it can help with autoimmune conditions and cancer. More recently it is being used more widely than that, as people find it benefits their particular condition.
I don't understand why people would source their NDT from potentially dodgy places Thailand when they can buy what appears to be an identical product just as cheaply from England. I must surely be missing a point somewhere?
NDT is not available in England (or Scotland or Wales or N Ireland) without private prescription and rarely is it possible to get one. Perhaps you are thinking of the USA. Some glandular supplements are available but they are much more expensive than NDT. Pharmaceutical companies get their products manufactured all over the world.
Thanks for you reply. It was the dodgy (now deleted by Admin) post above that confused me - and I fell for it. I thought it strange that someone in the UK was selling it.
Some websites are .co.uk, but that does not mean they are actually IN the UK. I have obtained supplies from a .co.uk where the company is in Eastern Europe, so the domain name means nothing
Before I sound misleading. It doesn’t help with increasing FT4 but it definitely helped me with FT4 to FT3 conversion and as a result I do feel better.
It’s also worth testing Selenium levels before and afterwards as you definitely don’t want to take too much either.
If anyone is around who takes NDT, has read your post and is willing to share their source, I'm sure they will send you a PM.
Your say your friend says she would "rather not take synthetics", does she realise that it's only the thyroid powder in NDT that is "natural" in that it is derived from pigs' thyroid glands, and that to make the tablets then synthetic excipients are used? Here is an article which lists the ingredients of all brands of NDT so she can check exactly what's in them:
