On the subject of blood products, here is part of one of the Reichelt Net
articles:

The only certainly established peptide problem so far is gliadin, gluten and
casein. However, people can be allergic (IgE mediated) to almost anything.
Opioids may also be formed from hemoglobin (hemoceptins) so I guess it is
better not to consume blood products.

Dr. Reichelt, has been researching the impact of gluten and casein
intolerance on certain individuals with developmental delays. A collected
set of his postings to the Net has been put up at:

The articles include:
 
1. Intolerance to food proteins
2. Diet and mental disease
3. Diet
4. Gluten, autism and schizophrenia
5. Autism and coeliac disease.
6. Intestinal permeability in schizophrenia
7. Trace amount of protein in milk.
8. Diet and mental disease.
9. ADDHA.
10. Schizophrenia and diet
11. Gluten, casein and behaviour
12. Ear infections, allergy, autism & gluten
13. Behaviour and Gluten
14. Downs syndrome and gut permeability

They are very enlightening, somewhat technical and include many references
to published studies. It is 58K of info and I can easily e-mail it if one
doesn't have web access.
