Which Test Is Best...? From Enterolab

I went to sign up at Enterolab.com for the gluten test and there are two choices for the $99 test...Gluten sensitivity or Tissue Transglutamase, I could get both for more money, but would rather just have one test if that is enough to let me know that I have a gluten problem.

Please advise me anybody who knows anything about these tests.

Thankyou so much,

Micah

The Tissue Transglutamase is the one to get

I would get the gluten sensitivity test. I got that one first and it was positive. Later, I ordered the tTg test (from the same sample) and it was negative. I am definitely gluten intolerant but didn't have the tTg reaction yet.

      Get your total IGA checked to make sure your celiac antibody test scores are trustworthy.

      I do eat 4 slices of wheat bread with almond butter. Yes it was a reference to my iron consumption.

      To give you a frame of reference for pretesting gluten consumption necessary to ensure valid antibody testing, here is the current recommendation for those who have been on a gluten free diet: The daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks. Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken...

      Thanks for your insight. I've been eating wheat bread at least 5 times a week for several months. I've been eating chicken or eggs 5 days a week for at least a year.

Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken. They are not sources of gluten. Was that in reference to dietary iron consumption?
