What is casomorphin?
Casomorphin (or caseomorphin) is a peptide derived from casein, a milk protein. Casein is one of the major proteins in the milk of all mammals including cows, goats, and humans. When Casein is digested properly, it breaks down into large peptides like casomorphin, and should then be broken down further into smaller amino acids.
In its peptide form, casein has opiate properties similar to morphine, and may plug into the same opiate receptor sites in the brain.
And so the cheese addiction continues!!!!
