How to prepare
If you are testing to investigate a new gluten-related concern, continue eating gluten normally, or reintroduce it for at least 6 weeks first if you've already removed it. If you are monitoring an existing gluten-free diet, no reintroduction is needed. Collect your sample using the provided sterile container.
After the test
If your result is positive, discuss next steps with your healthcare provider. They may recommend a blood-based coeliac panel, genetic testing (HLA-DQ2/DQ8), or referral to a gastroenterologist. Do not start a gluten-free diet before completing any recommended follow-up testing, since removing gluten can prevent an accurate coeliac diagnosis. Follow-up stool testing in 6 to 12 months can help monitor diet effectiveness.
Your test results will be available in your private dashboard. If there are any urgent issues, we'll let you know so you can follow up with your health professional.
Understanding results
A negative result suggests no significant gluten immune reaction was found. A positive result suggests an immune response to gluten in the gut. Your healthcare provider can interpret results alongside your symptoms and may recommend follow-up testing.
