6. What to do next?
• Gluten intolerance (celiac disease) can today be tested for fairly accurately
through a quick blood test and, should this test prove positive, confirmed by
taking samples from the small intestine through and endoscopic biopsy - a
procedure that takes about half an hour.
• In order for your celiac blood test to be reliable, it is important that you
continue eating a normal diet containing gluten during the whole diagnosis
process. Therefore it is not a good idea to go gluten free on your own before
performing these tests.
• While modern medicine works hard to find better answers for us, the best
thing you can do as a patient is to use the testing procedures currently
available first. Only after that is it a wise choice to start eliminating gluten
from your diet in order to carefully evaluate the positive improvements it may
have on your health.
