  • Screening CD antibody serology results outside normal range: participants excluded if deamidated gliadin IgG (AGA) is \>11 units/mL or if anti\-tissue transglutaminase antibody (tTG\-IgA) is \>11 units/mL
  • Other chronic inflammatory or functional gastrointestinal disease (eg symptomatic gastrointestinal reflux disease, inflammatory bowel disease, functional bowel disorders)
  • Uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune, psychiatric, neurological disease or chronic disease (eg HIV\-AIDS or cancer other than skin cancer) that could interfere with assessments
