Is Improvement Of Immunity Possible After Being Diagnosed As Not Having One?
My Son had no Iga at the time of his test for Coeliacs disease and had constantly suffered from chest infections etc, and had to have antibiotics after every cold, however since he has been on a gluten and wheat free diet if he gets a cold it remains as just a cold and does not end up with infections. Does this mean that he now has Iga and that it is improving? Is it possible to improve your immunity once being diagnosed as having none

Hi Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Is possible to improve Immunity by using passive injection of immunoglobins.
There is a possibility to synthesize new IgA when precipitating factors like gluten and wheat are removed from the diet.
Self destruction of antibodies comes to halt when wheat is removed from diet.
Consult an immunologist in case of further queries.
Thank you,
Take care.
