[|Human|] high carnosine, and anserine levels? My son, 3 yrs. He is devlopmentally delayed and Autism has been cansidered. He had genetic testing and a full blood work up. the results were no chromosome problems. glad for that. However his. anserine was 377 and carnosine at 93. these were said to be high. A blood plasma test has been ran for inborn metabolism disorders. The nurse made me feel as if all this is diet related but I really don t feel we eat tones of meat. Are their any disorders that match those two levels being high? and are they treatable? if it is diet related? shat can I do as a mother to ensure he gets more of the other food groups? A side note. Years ago I was told I could not donate plasma because of a protien being missing. they thought it a mistake and told me to come back in a year. I never did. Could it have been right and related to my sons problem with speech delays. I too was delayed as a child for unknown reasons. sorry for the long question but I m worried. thanks for advice.
[|AI|]  High Carnosine and an serine levels in blood have not been co-related with any definite health disorder, as yet. There is no scientific proof as yet to make these levels point to a diagnosis. Diet does not have much to do with it. It is claimed by proponents of alternative medicine that Carnosine and an serine is helpful in treating autism, though there is no such proven clinical evidence, and we do not recommend its use. Have you, by any chance, been giving your child any such supplements containing Carnosine and an serine? This may have led to an increased level. Regarding diet, a child with autism can be given any diet, which contains adequate amounts of all nutrients, just like any other child. The finding of a protein missing in your blood should be looked into, but it most likely has nothing to do with Carnosine and an serine levels, which are not part of the proteins that are looked for when testing a blood sample! So don't worry.
