The main things to avoid with low dose naltrexone are opioid medications, hidden opioids like loperamide, kratom, and calcium carbonate capsule fillers, since each can block its effects or trigger withdrawal.
A knee stem cell procedure costs $3,000 to $25,000 or more in the U.S., depending on cell type, and no major insurer covers it for knee osteoarthritis. Results depend more on arthritis grade than on price.
Ketamine treatment costs $400 to $800 per IV infusion session, so a standard six-infusion series runs $2,400 to $4,800. At-home oral ketamine costs about $200 to $400 a month, and Spravato nasal spray is the form insurance most often covers.
Neurofeedback trains the ADHD brain toward a healthier theta to beta ratio using real time EEG feedback. Learn the protocols, the trial evidence, how it compares to medication, and whether gains last.
IV iron infusions can restore iron levels in a single session when oral supplements fail or are not fast enough. Here’s who needs them, what the different formulations are, and what to expect during and after treatment.
At a Glance Low dose naltrexone (LDN) uses 1.5 to 4.5 mg nightly, far below the 50 mg dose used for addiction treatment, to modulate the immune system rather than block opioid receptors. Jill Smith’s 2011 pilot RCT at Penn State showed 88% clinical response and 33% remission in pediatric Crohn’s using 0.1 mg/kg LDN….
A complete practical guide to peptide injections — covering subcutaneous vs. intramuscular technique, reconstitution, dosing math, injection site rotation, equipment, storage, and answers to the most common questions about self-injection.
GHK-Cu is a natural copper peptide that changes the activity of more than 4,000 genes in lab studies, with its best human evidence in small topical skin trials. Here is what the research shows for skin, hair and wound healing, plus dosing, safety and its 2026 FDA status.
Cryotherapy can reduce some signs of inflammation, but the effect is modest and backed by small studies. Whole body cryotherapy shifts some inflammatory markers, a 2015 Cochrane review rated the soreness evidence very low quality, and the FDA has cleared no whole body device.
At a Glance PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) therapy uses low-frequency electromagnetic pulses to influence cellular activity, reduce inflammation, and support tissue repair. The FDA has cleared specific PEMF devices for bone healing, pain management, and urinary incontinence. These clearances are for specific devices, not the technology category as a whole. The strongest evidence base is…
An evidence-based look at stem cell therapy for hair loss, including how it works, the types available (BMAC, SVF, exosomes), clinical results, costs, and how it compares to PRP, minoxidil, and hair transplant.
Stem cell therapy for knees injects concentrated cells, usually BMAC or SVF, into an arthritic knee to ease pain. Many patients improve, but the largest trial (Nature Medicine, 2023) found it no better than a steroid shot at 12 months.
