I'm not sure I would lump anaphylactic w/ behavioral.  Some of ours do
cause behavioral changes - in fact any allergy flare of DD will cause
behavioral issues.  Some items more than others.  She has outgrown 2 of
her food allergies after numerous years of strict avoidance and the rest
have lessened in sensitivity - even the one that we are the least strict
about.  I do know of kids w/ anaph reactions that have outgrown them
also.
