I tell everyone I work with to go 100% grain free. However, if a client insists that they do
not have a sensitivity, or cannot give up grain, then I insist they be tested. Cyrex abs is a
testing co!pany whose results I co!pletely trust. "hey are a new lab that has developed
the !ost accurate tests for finding out if a person is sensitive to the #luten $rotein. If the
test co!es back that you have a reaction to gluten then I a! 100% convinced that you
