Coeliac Self-Testing

Bloated? Regular Nausea?

Two thirds of people with coeliac disease are undiagnosed. It’s not an allergy; it’s an immune reaction to gluten. When gluten is eaten, the immune system attacks its own tissue, damaging the gut and preventing the body from absorbing nutrients. Our test kits detect anti-DGP antibodies in the blood, an indicator for coeliac disease.
