>High intelligence: A risk factor for psychological and physiological overexcitabilities
>Specifically, those with a high intellectual capacity (hyper brain) possess overexcitabilities in various domains that may predispose them to certain psychological disorders as well as physiological conditions involving elevated sensory, and altered immune and inflammatory responses (hyper body).
>High statistical significance and a remarkably high relative risk ratio of diagnoses for all examined conditions were confirmed among the Mensa group 2015 data when compared to the national average statistics. This implicates high IQ as being a potential risk factor for affective disorders, ADHD, ASD, and for increased incidence of disease related to immune dysregulation.

The study shows there is a higher prevalence for mood disorders, anxiety disorders, ADHD, autism, food allergies, environmental allergies, asthma and autoimmune disease.
