There are multiple reasons for anger, a prominent reason is the consumption of foods that cause inflammation and anxiety. To see if this is a contributory factor no consumption of dairy, sugar (ice cream or cheese or pizza), or grains for 2 weeks. The anger could be simply managed with proper dietary guidance.
