FAQs

What does this test detect?

This test screens for gluten sensitivity, which can be an indicator of Coeliac Disease. It detects specific antibodies in your blood related to your body's reaction to gluten.

Is this test a substitute for a doctor's diagnosis?

No, this is a home screening test. A positive result should always be confirmed by a healthcare professional through further medical evaluation and diagnostic tests.

How accurate is the test?

The accuracy depends on following the instructions precisely, particularly regarding dietary intake before the test. Consult the product insert for specific accuracy data.

Do I need to be eating gluten for the test to work?

Yes, for accurate results, it is generally recommended to consume gluten regularly in the days leading up to the test, as indicated in the product instructions. This allows your body to produce the relevant antibodies if they are present.

How long does it take to get results?

The test typically provides results within a short timeframe, usually a matter of minutes, after the sample has been applied and processed according to the instructions.

What should I do if I get a positive result?

If you receive a positive result, schedule an appointment with your doctor to discuss the findings and undergo further diagnostic procedures to confirm a diagnosis.

Can I use this test if I have already stopped eating gluten?

If you have already stopped eating gluten, the test may not be accurate. It is best to consult your doctor about the best approach for testing in this situation.
