Eight ways toxins affect our brains (Pizzorno)

  • Poison enzymes -less effective
    • Enzymes are molecules that speed up rate of all chemical reactions
  • Displace structural minerals resulting in weaker bones. Eg. Bones
    • Lose bone release toxins
  • Toxins damage BBB through molecular mimicry
  • Damage DNA which increase rates aging and cellular degeneration
  • Modify gene expression
  • Directly affect function of our cell receptor sites
  • Interfere with hormones and cause imbalances such as endocrine disruptors
  • Inhibit body’s ability to detoxify

Fasting 12 hours

  • Burns stored fat cells releasing toxins
  • LFTs improved
  • Weight loss
  • Gene repair
  • Improved CVD health, insulin sensitivity
  • Less accumulation damaged cells and less damaging of cells, less ROS
  • Lower TG, ghrelin (hunger hormone), normal leptin, , insulin
  • Reduced cancer risk

  • WBC in blood stream
  • Brain: glial cells
    • cortex
      • 84 billion glial cells protecting the brain protecting BBB
      • 34 billion neurons
    • Cerebellum
      • More neurons > glial cells
    • Ancient arm of immune system cellular or innate
      • Protective handguns firing chemical bullets and creating inflammation to destroy threat
      • Humoural, adaptive immune system
    • Environmental exposure: bacteria, virus, parasite, offensive dietary proteins and peptides
      • Innate/ cellular arm produce cytokines first responders
        • Recognize and destroy
        • Antibodies stay in body 2 – 6 months
        • Elevated antibodies when innate , first responders depleted & ineffectiveà excessive inflammation, autoimmunity
          • From biochemical: food sensitivities, env toxins,
          • Posture, intestinal permeability
          • Emotional: stress
          • EMF

Excessive Inflammation

  • Every degenerative disease linked to inflammation
  • throw gas on fire
  • Light switch is on
  • inflammatory cascade à cellular damage, organ inflammationà initiate antibodies in that organà dysfunction, damage
  • NFL 99 % have CTE chronic traumatic encephalopathy
  • College football players 91 %
  • High school players 21 %

Brain Inflammation

  • Forgetfulness – nerves that carry messages
  • Depression – frontal lobe
  • Seizures from inflammation in occipital lobes.

Molecular Mimicry

  • To remove damaged cells with autoantibodies.
  • If molecular mimicry to corn, tomato, spinach, soy or tobacco, make Ab to nerves of brain and eyes called awauporin 4 à vision problems
  • When have a toxin (food sensitivity, mold, stress, hormones, bugs)à inflammatory cycle occupying first cycle responders
  • The demand of innate immune system is greater than is, adaptive immune system comes in,
    • There are powerful but not precise.
    • Creates lots of debris and creates collateral damage
    • Body makes autoantibodies to get rid of damaged cells
    • When inflammation is ongoing, Ag exposure is ongoing, keep making autoantibodiesà damage and dysfunction
  • Molecular Mimicry
    • Most common cause of brain dysfunction (AD, depression, anxiety, sz, schiz)
    • Mistake and destroy genetically similar molecules to toxins
    • Proteins like necklace
      • GI produces enzymes to break into individual pearls called aa
      • These amino acids build each cell.
      • Humans do not have enzymes to break down wheat so get peptides
        • Ab to gluten attack cerebellum, myelin
      • GAD glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD)

        • If sensitivity to what, low gABA
      • Ab to wheatà Ab to GAD
      • Ab to casein have ab to myelin basic protein and myelin oligoglycoproteins (biomarkers MS

Gluten

  • US consumes 165 g q D: Europe 10 – 20 g QD
  • Breaks down into exorphins ~ morphine
    • Like a belly laugh

Milk

  • Not fully digested causing inflammation in intestines
  • Some of these macromolecules are exorphins stimulating opiate receptors
  • Milk broken down into casein which contains exorphin called casomorphin
  • 2 T cows milk negative impact on brain
  • Even human breast milk stimulate opiate receptors so will suck
  • Opioids in cows milk 10 x stronger than human milk
  • Opioids in casomorphin are 10 x potent than morphine
  • Bovine casomorphin-7 (bcm-7) ~ disruptive brain function and neurological disorders such as schiz and autism
  • Other type ~ SIDs

    • When this sticks to vessel wall immune system protects by making antibodies to it called oxidized LDL bad guy
      • Inflammation makes foam cells go inside blood vessl walls swell, rigid, inc BP
    • LPS leaks out of intestines toxin,à sepsis
    • LPS damage will start at weakest link
