gluten test

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody,

Has anyone used the Gluten test ? Is it conclusive and reliable ?

I'm very new to all those tests and wander if it's worth it to do it. After

reading some emails i just wander if my son will benefit from the GFCF diet as

he does not have any real gut issues except a little bit of constipation, or

behavioural difficulties because of it. But he has severe learning and

communication difficulties so i want to try anything that could help him.

Talking to some parents around me the GFCF diet might help but i don't know

anybody who has a child like mine, a teenager really, so i'm wandering if any of

you could help him with that and especially if like i said before the gluten

test is worth it. There are different tests, (i'm sure many of you are aware of

that already) like :

- Peptide and IAG

- Dysbiosis

- Homocysteine pathway

- Tryptophan pathway

I contacted ESPA research in Sunderland who asks me to send an urine sample to

a laboratry name Analutos. Does anybody know about them ? And also will they be

able to tell me the result or should i have to go to a doctor to understand the

signifaction of the test result. Maybe i should call and ask them directly but

it is not easy to get hold of them.

Thank you. Axx
