I finally found it/Nerve proliferation/pain/(vestibulitis)/dairy and gluten cause/article

[Guest guest]

Peptides so I read are small proteins. Casein, a

protein in milk, is one that has opioid properties

which means it has opium like properties that key into

opium like receptors in the brain and the nervous

system.

The following article talks about a study which

suggested that opioid peptides (casein in milk and I

will add my own contribution here--in gluten) MAY PLAY

A ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND REGENERATION of nervous

tissue.

" Thus, opioid peptides were shown to exert a strong

growth-promoting effect on nervous tissue in culture.

This effect is dual: in neurons the peptides stimulate

the outgrowth of neurites and their survival, while in

glial cells they change the rate of their migration

and, probably, their proliferation. It is suggested

that opioid peptides, besides their already

established functions, MAY PLAY A ROLE IN THE

DEVELOPMENT OF REGENERATION OF NERVOUS TISSUE. " (My

Vestibulitis, the condition of severe pain in the

vulvar vestibule (and I suspect in other genital parts

like the clitoris), has been shown to have extra small

fiber nerves in the vestibule of women and has been

assumed to be why there is so much pain.

I have been trying to convince people for years that

there is a connection between vestibulitis (and other

vulvar pain) and gluten and dairy products.

Voila!

Here is an abstract about Vulvar Vestibulitis and

nerve proliferation which has been believed to be

responsible for the pain of Vestibulitis as the small

nerve fibers are so increased in that tissue and

nobody to my knowledge has ever connected drinking

milk or eating gluten which are both opioid containing

foods to this pain. I have been saying it for years

but here is an actual connection. YAYYYY!!!!! (I

think!) (I am reasonably sure)

The only three foods that appear to have opioid

peptides are dairy, gluten, and some yeasts. I can't

find any more but there must be.

Girls, stop eating dairy and gluten if you have

genital pain before it destroys your whole nervous

system. Here is proof to me that the stuff likely

causes the pain of vestibulitis with its nerve

proliferation. (Certainly it causes more than that).
