Many people react – or think they react – to gluten-containing foods. As recommended by NICE (the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence), this test includes both tissue transglutaminase (tTg) and total IGA. Based on the results of these tests, our doctor determines whether further testing is needed.
You must eat a moderate amount of gluten daily for at least 2-3 weeks before taking this test.

This test requires a blood draw, which can be done at your local clinic. It will be analysed by an accredited lab such as Karolinska, Aleris or Unilabs. The first results are usually available within 48h.
What happens next?
The lab sends the results to your personal dashboard, with comments from both a doctor and a nutritionist. If results are abnormal, we recommend seeing a doctor and, if appropriate, booking an appointment with a Nordic Wellth nutrition lifestyle specialist.
You may need to make lifestyle and dietary changes.
