How to take your home blood test
โ Coeliacs disease affects about 1% of the population and it can often be tricky to diagnose. This test is highly accurate but it is important to continue to be consuming regular gluten based foods for at least 6 weeks prior to undertaking this investigation. The only treatment is avoiding gluten based products although there are many gluten free foods now available.ย “
