I did ask about LDN, and many MDs say the same thing. Many believe it to be in the snake oil catagory. Actually that is exactly what my MD called it. The local guy said its a product of great mystery and he feels that its a placebo effect on most. Anything that can cure Cancer (which raises the bodys immune system) and MS (which lowers the immune system) cant truly exist in the same potion. Said he believes it to be in the same catagory as the bee stings, and other such treatments.

They want meds that have been through thier double blind studies, and have been measured for years by the FDA, and other such agencies. Look at years ago, they used to say that Vit C or Vit D was a waste of our money. Dont take it, it just makes expensive pee. Now they are telling folks all the time, to increase their C and add in D. Same for multi's. They used to be a children, or pregnant woman thing, now they ask all adult, healthy or sick to take one.

One of these days our MDs will catch up and pay attention. Till then, they stand on their corners saying "prove it in double blinds" sad, just sad.
