      Hi 'ConfusedCelic'. I was very interested to read your post and the letter from Prof. Federico Biagi you linked to. Blown away actually! I am DQ7.5. I tested sero-negative for Celiac 10 days AFTER giving up gluten (August 2023) when I knew very little about this topic. I now know a whole lot. I am not game to do a gluten challenge. My body is still 'recovering'. I did my tests through my GP here in New Zealand although here the genetic result is termed differently which confused me for a while: DQA1*05 and DQB1*03:01 (DQA1*05) = DEMONSTRATED Relative risk for coeliac disease - VERY LOW It seems to me that statistics can give you slanted views. Perhaps what this really means is, there are a low percentage of people generally with this gene combination rather than the genes giving a low risk of developing celiac disease. The other thing that I found strange was, the letter and the work it referred to, talk about 'only having DQA1*05, not also having DQB1*02:01'. It doesn't seem surprising to me that there could be another combination of genes capable of causing celiac disease. On a local facebook chat this month, 2 people stated that they had been diagnosed celiac 30 years ago via biopsy when they were 2 and 3 respectively, and they have now 'learned' via private testing companies that they 'aren't celiac after all'. Presumably, they were only tested for the 'common' types. I am astonished at how much disinformation goes on. I have pointed them to the letter from Prof. Federico Biagi. Did you ever manage to complete the other genetic tests?

      I will have to try them. Looks like same sugar in both regular and gluten free. Fingers crossed they taste the same. Thanks!
