autism autismo dieta gluten caseina péptidos proteínas aminoácidos

  • Estudios recientes constatan el efecto positivo de las dietas sin gluten y sin caseína en los niños autistas. Se han detectado péptidos anormales en la orina atribuidos a la incapacidad del organismo de descomponer esas proteínas en los aminoácidos. Las sustancias más problemáticas son el gluten y la caseína de la dieta.
  • Estos componentes mal metabolizados producirían los neuropéptidos caseomorfina (derivada de todos los productos lácteos) y gliadinmorfina (procedente de cereales como el trigo, la avena, el centeno, la cebada y el triticale), que pasarían al torrente sanguíneo y de ahí al cerebro, donde actúan como los opioides endógenos y provocan toxicidad. Esto explicaría parte de los síntomas autistas.
  • Pese a los positivos resultados encontrados, se necesitan más ensayos controlados aleatorios de gran escala y de buena calidad antes de generalizar el uso de este tipo de dietas en personas con autismo.

autism syndrome apraxia symptoms Gluten Casein biomedical treatments vitamin E vitamin D malabsorption low muscle tone cordination sensory integration HLA gene

  • Children’s Hospital & Research Center Oakland scientist and pediatric emergency medicine physician, Claudia Morris, MD says she has identified a syndrome which combines apraxia (a speech disorder) with symptoms often associated with autism. Many of these symptoms are precisely the ones that are pointed to by those whose children appear to benefit from biomedical treatments -- specifically Gluten and Casein-free diets and vitamin supplements.
  • The data clearly demonstrated a common cluster of allergy, apraxia and malabsorption, along with low muscle tone, poor coordination and sensory integration abnormalities. In addition, Dr. Morris was able to gather laboratory analyses in 26 of the children, which revealed low carnitine levels, abnormal celiac panels, gluten sensitivity, and vitamin D deficiency among others. All children genetically screened carried an HLA gene associated with gluten sensitivity and celiac disease.
  • Most significantly, the data indicate that the neurologic dysfunction represented in the syndrome overlaps the symptoms of vitamin E deficiency. While low vitamin E bioavailability may occur due to a variety of different causes, neurological consequences are similar, regardless of the initiating trigger. The study suggests that vitamin E could be used as a safe nutritional intervention that may benefit some children. Growing evidence support the benefits of omega 3 fatty acid supplementation in a number of neurodevelopmental disorders.

  • Like all preliminary studies, this one is... preliminary. In other words, it has not been replicated, and the findings may turn out to be misleading.
