Does Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) Push TH1?

Does LDN push TH1?  Could it be problematic for those who have TH1 dominance or lower doses be better in this circumstance?  I would either stop or go to lower doses.   I often do that and if it's not counterproductive for my patient I'd have them stop for a few days and see what happens.  

I had somebody on a miramide, which pulls out Mercury and this little kid was vomiting and I said stop for a few days.  He stopped.  His symptoms got better.  I had him then restart at half the dose.  He did perfect.   If you feel that's the way,  then go on lower doses if it would be better. Just because somebody's on four milligrams of LDN doesn't mean that they wouldn't do well on two, okay maybe for a longer period of time.  You can't have somebody having worse symptoms for what they're taking.  Your logic there is good.
