The reason LDN works for many - the opioid connection

[Guest guest]

The studies also found high levels of Ig A antigen specific antibodies for

casein, lactalbumin and beta-lactoglobulin and IgG and IgM for casein.

Beta-casomorphine-7 is a morphine like compound that results in neural

disfunction (24,25), as well as being a direct histamine releaser in humans and

inducing skin reactions (14,21,25c). Similarly many also had a corresponding

form of gluten protein with similar effects(24,26). Elimination of milk and

wheat products and sulfur foods from the diet has been found to improve the

condition of ASD children (100,28,etc.)[and with other conditions]

A double blind study using a potent opiate antagonist, naltrexone(NAL),

produced significant reduction in autistic symptomology among the 56% most

responsive to opioid effects(28). The behavioral improvements was accompanied

by alterations in the distribution of the major lymphocyte subsets, with a

significant increase in the T-helper-inducers and a significant reduction of the

T-cytotoxic-suppressors and a normalization of the CD4/CD8 ratio.

Studies have found mercury causes increased levels of the CD8

T-cytotoxic-suppressors(29). As noted previously, such populations of patients

have also been found to have high levels of mercury and to recover or

significantly improve after mercury detoxification (23,11,22a,30,40,96,100). As

mercury levels are reduced the protein binding is reduced and improvement in the

enzymatic process occurs(22a,11,96).
