CELIAC TEST RESULTS OFFERED IN JUST TEN MINUTES

HOLLYWOOD, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2006--The latest advancement

in the screening for food allergy, food intolerance and Celiac Disease

is available through US-based Optimum Health Resource Laboratories. With

an estimated 70-80% of the world's chronically ill population suffering

from medical conditions either caused and/or aggravated by immune

responses to foods, it is anticipated that for many these laboratory

innovations will be the key to gaining optimal health.

"Our collection kits are a convenient, reliable and cost-effective

method for an individual or medical professional to identify the hidden

culprits behind many chronic ill-health conditions of unknown origin.

Additionally, our collection kits can be administered in the comfort of

one's home or at a doctor's office," says John Kernohan, Director of

Optimum Health Resource Laboratories.

For food allergy and food intolerance, a unique collection kit is used

by simply pricking the end of the finger to collect the tiny sample of

blood required for testing. According to Charlotte Newbury, Optimum

Health Resource Laboratories' Operations Manager, "The absorbent pad

safely preserves the specimen until it reaches the laboratory, which is then

tested against 96 foods. In addition to the results and a 48-page

support program we produce for the patient, we also include 12 months of

telephone and Internet support at no additional cost!"

"For Celiac Disease, our kit detects the antibodies associated with celiac disease

and gluten intolerance by displaying results within 10 minutes of

collecting the blood - there is no need to send the specimen to the

laboratory for analysis," states Kernohan.

For further information about Optimum Health Resource Laboratories and

its kits for food allergy, food intolerance and Celiac Disease, visit

Is this test effective if a person has a gluten intolerance and has not been eating gluten for some time? If it is cheap enough, I might try it for confirmation. Barbara

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
