Anyone do the gluten/casein peptide test?

[Guest guest]

Anyone do the gluten casein peptide test. What were the results, would you

recommend the test?

Can't decide if removing these two are doing any good or not.

We ran the test more than a year ago. It's a very simple urine test. Our son's

results showed WAY outside the reference range for casein (very intolerant), but

on the very low end of the reference range for gluten (tolerant). Personally, as

I knew it would be hard, I needed to see that result to make the diet change. He

has casein every now and then (if we're out to eat, at a birthday party, etc...)

but always make sure to take our Houston Enzymes, and he never seems to have a

problem.

Our now 4y10m old son also had the tests performed.

Dr Karl Reichelt in Norway did them 8 months ago.

He was on no diet whatsoever when the samples were taken.

The results take quite some time to be returned (the process takes weeks).

Our results were very high gladiomorphin, but no caseomorphin.

The opposite of Summer's results !!

Since the test samples were taken, he has now moved on to the GAPS protocol,

which is significantly more restrictive than most GFCF.

Interestingly, back then, our lad was completely addicted to breads and grains.

In hindsight of course, it makes complete sense. He does not crave any, and I

guess we are lucky that he understands that he is not allowed to eat certain

things.

His issues are primarily around speech and some stimming.

Generally he is high functioning.

I say this because when we got the results back, Dr Reichelt had characterized

our boy as 'high functioning infantile autism', which is spot on...and he had

never seen or heard about our son previously in any way. Some of these

researchers have developed a very good nose for what these results generally

mean in the individual.

We will be sending off new samples shortly to see if the gluten is still present

in his system. I will let you know he results.

Good Luck

I looked at direct labs and couldn't find this.. what is it called? Where do

you get testing?

As a side note, of course you are to run the test following a few days of no

diet restrictions and enzymes, as if the proteins (casein & gluten) are not

being consumed, then the test won't be accurate. I've often considered running

the same test letting our son eat with no restrictions, but along with our

Houston Trienza enzymes. That would give a true measure of how well the enzymes

are working :-)
