Neuropeptides…Yikes!

saBEE, 24 Jan ’1325 Jan ’13

The other day, I was reflecting on the last months of holistic nutrition studies.
I remembered how panicked I was with each of the first classes.
Armed with new information, I would often march to the health food store and pick up whatever it was I thought we needed to have. So much seemed to need change.

As I remembered those early days, I felt good about where I am today.
Tons of work still to complete and much to learn…much calmer with plans forming for when the studies are done.

Today’s class freaked me out again.
Neuropeptides…
large unbroken down protein molecules from wheat and dairy that can cross the blood brain barrier, attach to opiate receptors and mimic the effects of heroin and morphine?!? Yikes!!

Having dinner with my mate tonight, he commented on how our dinner was so different from what used to be typical.

Grateful today for
the progress we have made at home in our diets – forward movement is always good,
frozen curried lentils that made having a healthy dinner easy,
and for learning – knowledge is powerful.
