The Celiac & Gluten Sensitivity Profile (Finger Prick) helps differentiate between Coeliac Disease and gluten sensitivity by evaluating the serum titers of IgA and IgG for deamidated gliadin peptide, gliadin, and gluten

In regards to consuming gluten before taking the test, do NOT reintroduce gluten if you have a known allergy which could trigger anaphylaxis.

Otherwise, introduce gluten containing food every day for 7 days. Approximately 25-30 days after introducing the food, provide the sample.
