Please see conventional, complementary, and alternative medical treatments for important background information regarding the different types of medical treatments discussed on this page. Naturopathic, Complementary, and Alternative treatments that may be considered include:
In addition to benefiting sleep, melatonin has been reported be protective in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [Polimeni2014 🕮 ].
According to the Low Dose Naltrexone home page [LDN], LDN has been seen to benefit many different neurodegenerative diseases associated with autoimmune processes, including Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson's Disease. Although Dr. Weyrich is not aware of any reports of treating Huntington's disease using LDN, Dr. Weyrich speculates that Huntington's disease may also respond to LDN. Dr. Weyrich has been trained to use Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN). However, Dr. Weyrich has not treated any cases of Huntington's disease with LDN.
Please see What is Low Dose Naltrexone? for more information.
Neuro Research [Hinz2015] reports that chronic diseases such as Huntington's Disease can be benefited by balancing neurotransmitter levels in the body.
Dr. Weyrich has been trained in neurotransmitter balancing protocols, but has not treated Huntington's Disease using this technique.
