Hi, My 11 year old autistic son who is severe asd has recently been tested for allergies. He does not show any symptoms of allergies but I was curious due to having seen a behavioural change from a GFCF diet. His preliminary results have come back with a high IgE of 1777, when 2 - 170 is normal. Obviously I am awaiting further test results for us to identify and target what the actual allergy/allergies is. But I am curious to know that if his levels are high and he has never shown any signs of anaphylactic shock or negative response to food other than behavioural issues. Surely when we identify the allergens and eliminate them from the diet, the autism may become milder and certainly there will be room for improvement as his body is just reacting to the allergens via his behaviour, quite possibly. Have there been any other accounts of people experiencing this. Targeting the allergies, GF/CF Diet, Nutritional supplements = improvement.
Thank you in advance for reading
