Celiac Test

15,33 

Our Celiac test aids in the diagnosis of celiac disease by detecting specific antibodies. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by the consumption of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. The importance of a Celiac disease test lies in its ability to diagnose this condition, which, if left untreated, can lead to severe complications.

Individuals experiencing persistent gastrointestinal symptoms, such as chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, and unexplained weight loss, should consider a Celiac disease test. However, it’s crucial to note that the symptoms of Celiac disease can vary widely, and some individuals may not manifest obvious digestive issues. Therefore, anyone with unexplained or recurring symptoms, including fatigue, joint pain, infertility, or skin rashes, should also consider testing.

Positive results may indicate gluten intolerance and the need for a gluten-free diet.
