"Natural-born painkiller found in human saliva

Saliva from humans has yielded a natural painkiller up to six times more powerful than morphine, researchers say.

The substance, dubbed opiorphin, may spawn a new generation of natural painkillers that relieve pain as well as morphine but without the addictive and psychological side effects of the traditional drug.

When the researchers injected a pain-inducing chemical into rats’ paws, 1 milligram of opiorphin per kilogram of body weight achieved the same painkilling effect as 3 milligrams of morphine.

The substance was so successful at blocking pain that, in a test involving a platform of upended pins, the rats needed six times as much morphine as opiorphin to render them oblivious to the pain of standing on the needle points.
Anti-depressive angle

“Its pain-suppressive effect is like that of morphine,” says Catherine Rougeot at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France, who led the research. “But we have to test its side effects as it is not a pure painkiller,” she says. “It may also be an anti-depressive molecule.”

Rougeot and colleagues discovered that opiorphin works in nerve cells of the spine by stopping the usual destruction of natural pain-killing opiates there, called enkephalins.

Opiorphin is such a simple molecule that it should be possible to synthesise it and produce large quantities without having to isolate it from saliva, Rougeot explains. Alternatively, it might be possible to find drugs which trigger patients’ bodies to produce more of the molecule themselves.

oil pulling produces saliva. i was pulling on the road because i had no one to talk to and nothing else to do. i would pull for a couple of hours and do seven or so pulls in a row. after about the fifth one a strange thing would happen. a euphoria would overtake me and intensify as i kept it up. it did not incapacitate me. in fact, it was energizing. but i felt good without any of the side effects of a drug would have(not that i would know what thats like, hehehe).

the other thing that happened with this is that my night vision went off the chart good. i could see a veil of visual purple at dusk that was more than discernable. i could almost reach out and touch it. and bright lights had no effect. my eyes adjusted almost immediately.

now, there are several things. if you are oil pulling, you cant eat. if you are making salive, then i think this is what is what is comforting folks CHEMICALLY. i would not put Lugols in the oil as this may neutralize the natural painkiller.

think about it and see what you can do with this.
