CGPEP

The Casomorphin and Gliadorphin Peptides test detects abnormal peptide fragments derived from incomplete digestion of casein (milk protein) and gluten (wheat protein). Elevated levels may indicate impaired gut function or “leaky gut” and have been linked to behavioural, neurological, and digestive symptoms such as brain fog, hyperactivity, bloating, or food sensitivities. This test helps identify whether gluten or dairy peptides may be impacting health.

Why Casomorphin and Gliadorphin Peptides Test Matters?

Incomplete digestion of gluten and casein can release bioactive peptides that act like opioids in the body, potentially influencing mood, behaviour, and gut-brain interactions. Measuring these peptides provides insight into hidden food-related triggers, especially in individuals with autism spectrum conditions, ADHD, chronic digestive complaints, or unexplained fatigue. Early detection allows for targeted dietary and therapeutic strategies.

What Gets Assessed?

This test typically measures:

  • Beta-Casomorphin-7 (from casein/milk)
  • Gliadorphin (from gluten/wheat)
  • Related peptide levels indicating incomplete protein breakdown

FAQs

What are casomorphin and gliadorphin?

Casomorphin and gliadorphin are peptide fragments produced from the incomplete digestion of casein (from dairy) and gluten (from wheat and related grains). These peptides may act like opioids in the body and have been linked to digestive problems, neurological symptoms, and behavioural concerns in some individuals.

Who should consider the Casomorphin and Gliadorphin Test?

This test may be useful for individuals with ongoing digestive issues, food sensitivities, behavioural or neurological concerns, or those who suspect gluten intolerance or dairy intolerance. It can help identify whether undigested peptide fragments could be contributing to health symptoms.

Is this test used to diagnose coeliac disease or lactose intolerance?

No. The casomorphin and gliadorphin test does not diagnose coeliac disease or lactose intolerance. Instead, it detects specific peptide fragments from gluten and casein, providing functional insights that may guide further medical evaluation or dietary adjustments.

How is the test performed?

The test requires a simple urine sample, which is analysed in a specialised laboratory to measure the presence of casomorphin and gliadorphin peptides.

Can dietary changes improve peptide levels?

Yes. Reducing or removing gluten and dairy from the diet, under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional, often helps lower peptide levels and may lead to improvements in digestion, mood, and overall wellbeing.
