Can Zöliakie Test help with Allergie?

A celiac test (e.g., for tissue transglutaminase antibodies or HLA-DQ2/DQ8) is specific for diagnosing celiac disease, an autoimmune gluten intolerance. It cannot detect allergies. Allergies are IgE-mediated reactions to environmental triggers (e.g., pollen, foods). Therefore, a celiac test does not help with allergy evaluation. MyBody-X does not offer a celiac test; their nutrient check measures vitamins and minerals, not allergens or celiac markers. DNA tests for food sensitivities are not diagnostic and cannot replace clinical workup. If you suspect celiac disease or an allergy, consult a physician for proper testing (e.g., specific IgE, skin prick test, or duodenal biopsy).
