Guest guest Posted June 26, 2001 Report Share Posted June 26, 2001 Our results came back really high like 160 for one and 180 for the other only my son hasn't had gluten or casein for at least 8 months. Maybe there was an occasional accident, but I don't see how that could make his scores so high. Our Dr. said maybe it was soy, but he hardly eats any soy because I am allergic to it and I just don't buy anything with soy in it. Any other ideas? Could the test be inaccurate?

Could the test be inaccurate? > Our results came back even higher (over 200 for casomorphin and 192 for gliadomorphin). And we'd been casein-free for a year with only minor infractions and none within three months of the test; we were mostly but not totally gluten-free for several months too, so I guess the second number could be accurate. But I'm having terrible problems believing the first. I've heard several people say the Great Plains tests can show occasional strange results. We had also been off soy completely for several months pre-testing as well. However, we HAD been using a digestive enzyme called Acti-Zyme and stopped it only three days before the test. I'm wondering if this enzyme could have screwed up the results, though it is not mentioned on the Great Plains test explanation like Serenade and Enzymade are. I'm trying to find out now. But I know completely well that the casomorphin level of over 200 is not due to casein consumption (unless it is that of breastmilk, since my son still nurses, and we've been told repeatedly lately that only cow and some goat casein are measured.)
