Food Sensitivities

One popular recommendation for kids with ADHD or ASD is a gluten-free/ casein-free diet (GF/CF diet).  This can indeed be very helpful for some kids… but for other’s it makes no difference at all. Food allergies are severe immune reactions that are often tested by skin scratch tests. These are typically performed by Allergists and Immunologists, and will identify the more severe reactions. Blood tests that look for antibody (immunoglobulin) reactions (IgG, IgE, IgA, etc.) are often favored by general practitioners and alternative healthcare providers (Naturopaths, etc.), but are often expensive and are very limited in their usefulness. A third type of test is called a mediator release test (MRT). When there is an immune response, chemicals such as histamines, cytokines and prostaglandins (and a hundred or so others) are released from cells into the surrounding fluids.
