I am Dr. Maki Dr. Davidson: And I am Dr. Davidson. Dr. Maki: So today, we are going to do not really an actual question like we have been doing on some of the past episodes. But today, we are going to actually something that does come up quite often. So it is kind of a question. It is not coming from one person. But today we are going to talk about low dose Naltrexone or LDN. Dr. Davidson: Exactly. So LDN, low dose Naltrexone. We have actually used with our patients for a number of years, but we do get a lot of listeners, just people that run across our website, people from thyroid groups looking for low dose Naltrexone, because while it has been around for… Gosh.
