Gluten and the Brain [Episode 138]

Does diet really matter? Yes, the intake of gluten can directly affect the brain and the behavior of your child on the autism spectrum. Gastrointestinal surgeon, Dr. Andrew Wakefield, found the greatest results in treating children with autism came from a gluten free/casein free diet. When he treated the inflammatory bowel disease he found their behavior improved, sleep improved and there was an increase in communication... Gluten (wheat protein) and casein (dairy protein) release natural opiate-like substances into the bloodstream, which, if they get through the blood-brain barrier, can mimic the effects of morphine in the brain. The opiates in casein and gluten are called exorphins, specifically, gluteomorphins and caseomorphins... Behavioral issues such as hyperactivity and mood disorders are common in people with gluten sensitivity.
