Why test for bloating & digestive discomfort?
Bloating and digestive discomfort are often linked to diet, stress or irritable bowel syndrome. Blood tests can check for coeliac disease (an immune reaction to gluten) and allergy antibodies, and look at liver function. Coeliac testing is only reliable while you are still eating gluten.
