How to prepare for Gluten Check

To prepare for the MyBody-X Gluten Check, the key step is to continue eating gluten-containing foods before taking the test. A gluten-free diet prior to testing can lead to false-negative results, as the test relies on detecting antibodies or genetic markers that are only present when gluten is consumed. It is generally recommended to eat gluten daily for at least 4–6 weeks before sampling. The test is typically done via saliva or stool; follow the kit instructions carefully. Important: This test is not a substitute for a medical diagnosis of celiac disease. If you suspect celiac disease, consult a doctor before changing your diet. Evidence is based on clinical practice guidelines for celiac testing, not on specific MyBody-X validation studies.
