Symptoms are epilepsy (not always) Weakness in body left or right side off body! Balance problems Global Delay. The test for this is a lumber puncher and taking blood. What it is the gluten transporter from body to Brain is defected (not working) so the brain is left starving!! Treatment is the ketagonic diet. There are only round 400 kids with this in the world!! The longer the child gose without treatment the more brain damage they get!!!!! Tell everyone!!
