ist dinkelmehl glutenfrei — what can you do yourself?

Spelt flour is not gluten-free. Spelt is an ancient wheat variety and contains gluten (including gliadin and glutenin). People with celiac disease or diagnosed gluten sensitivity should avoid it. What you can do yourself: A DNA test can reveal genetic risk markers (HLA-DQ2/DQ8) for celiac disease, but it does not diagnose the condition. An elimination diet (gluten-free for 4–6 weeks, then reintroduce spelt) can help identify personal tolerance. Microbiome tests may show gut inflammation markers but cannot confirm gluten sensitivity. Important: Self-testing has limits; always consult a doctor for proper diagnosis, especially before making major dietary changes.
