Title: Dramatic Recovery In Parkinson�s Patient with Gluten Free Diet

A remarkable new case report describing the dramatic recovery of a 75-year-old Parkinson's disease patient after following a 3-month long gluten free diet reveals the need to explore whether there is an increased prevalence of silent or symptomatic celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity both in those afflicted with Parkinson's disease and the related multi-factorial neurodegenerative condition known as Parkinsonism.

Gluten Acts Like A 'Brain Drug': The presence of pharmacologically active opioid peptides in wheat including four gluten exorphins and gliadorphin, and another is gluten's ability to restrict blood flow to the frontal cortex.

'Gluten Brain' Autoimmunity: Plenty of research now indicates that in susceptible individuals wheat adversely affects the gut-brain axis, increases intestinal permeability, and ultimately leads to the immune system misidentifying self-structures within the brain or neurological tissue as "other," causing the host immune system to attack its own nervous system.

Wheat's "Invisible Thorns" Affect The Brain: The defensive carbohydrate-binding protein in wheat known as wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), also know as "wheat lectin," has been found to cross the blood-brain-barrier and can interfere with neurological function in a number of ways.

Grains Metabolically Impair the Brain: The larger context is that grains provide an inappropriate or suboptimal set of nutrients for brain metabolism. Dr. David Perlmutter in his NY Times bestselling book Grain Brain links cognitive impairments endemic to older populations in Western cultures to the over consumption of carbohydrates (from grains and sugar), and the under consumption of fats.

Although I agree with the article they have missed a very important part. That gluten destroys the ability of the small intestine to absorb minerals, vitamins, amino acids, fatty acids, and cholesterol which is a large molecule. By the photo of this person you can see he has a copper deficiency and probably deficiencies in a lot of essential nutriments.
It might have been the ability of the body to get what it needed after the damage of the gluten went away.

They call it leaky gut syndrome. When food starts to leek out of the intestines and spill onto inner organs causing bacterial infections. I just emphasized that a little but really thats what gluten can do to you. Also, I notice how bad your sugar craving get when you eat bread.
