Celiac, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and Crohn’s Array

The Celiac, IBS, and Crohn’s Array (CICA) evaluate your genetic risk for celiac disease, serum markers associated with the active celiac disease process, and genetic serum markers associated with Crohn’s disease all through a simple blood draw. Optionally, it can be combined with the Alcat Test to evaluate innate immune cell responses to as many as 400 other foods (including gluten, gliadin, casein, and whey) and substances for the most comprehensive assessment. You may benefit from the test if you are experiencing any of the following:

GI issue prevalence in the United States

In the United States, an estimated 60-70 million people are affected by gastrointestinal disorders (GI). Celiac disease may be present despite the absence of GI symptoms, particularly, in relatives of individuals with celiac disease.

  • In the U.S., 2 in 5 Americans are affected by GI disorders.
  • Up to 20% of adults in North America suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
  • Approximately 0.44% of Americans experience Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
  • Up to 1% of the general population have symptoms of celiac disease.
  • 15% of the general population in western countries suffer from indigestion and constipation.

Not surprisingly, there is overlap between these disorders.

CICA test results are color-coded and easy to read. Each result is thoroughly explained with expert commentary.

See what people are saying

As someone who has never been extremely fit or healthy, it took a couple of health diagnoses for me to decide to change my unhealthy habits. My weight had crept up over time and I was technically considered obese. I decided it was finally time to prioritize my health.

With Helen’s nutrition instruction and accountability, I have achieved a 30lb weight loss in less than 3 months. Helen’s guidance has helped me to make sustainable healthy lifestyle changes. Helen has shown me that eating healthily is doable. It’s not a fad or an overcomplicated puzzle. I can do this.

Because of Helen’s guidance, I am seeing big changes. My hard work is paying off. I highly recommend Helen Agresti to anyone ready to prioritize their health!

I HIGHLY recommend Helen Agresti. Within the past month, she’s helped me lose 11 lbs. without having to resort to any fad diet. I’ve been going back and forth with keto for years… I can eat bread now. I’ve had no cravings at all because I’m eating a balanced diet. She’s taught me how to read labels and cut chemicals out of my food. I could go on and on, but I feel so much better and healthier. The money I saved on groceries alone over the past month has already paid for the initial consult. I cannot recommend her enough.

Helen has completely changed the way I look at nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. She has taught me the balance of giving my body what it needs, while also enjoying life at the same time. Helen helped me find a workout routine that works best for me and was sustainable. I am forever grateful for her support and motivation to get me on the right track to feeling my absolute best!


Lauren S, 24

I am so grateful to find Helen. She has help me understand nutrition and how to fuel my body so I don’t  feel deprived. She has helped me to understand my portions of food, and given me guidance to understand the value in good wholesome foods. I am down 25 pounds and feeling great! I am so happy to be headed in the right direction.


Michelle M, 60

I am so happy I decided to change my life and schedule an appointment with Helen. She has truly helped change my whole mindset. She’s taught me to stick to better sleep, and an eating schedule to get my metabolism running. With just a few tweaks to my schedule and enjoying eating my food instead of skipping meals, I’ve boosted my metabolism and lost 19lbs in 1 month!  I’m so grateful to Helen and excited I finally found a lifestyle change that will last forever.


Victoria S, 25

As soon as I met Helen I knew I made a life-changing choice.  I have been struggling with losing a few pounds and trying to figure out what to eat for optimal health benefits.  From my first visit,  I knew I was on my way to a healthier me.  Helen has educated me in several areas.  Most importantly, learning how to fuel my body nutritiously.  She also introduced me to an exercise program that fits my fitness level.

I recently began using Helen’s app that helps with meal planning. Helen created a nutrition prescription for me and the app gives menu options for breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner. These are healthy choices that are easy and delicious. If there is something on the menu I do not find appealing, I am able to swap out the meal for other options. This app makes it easy to try new and different combinations of energizing food.

Helen has helped bring exciting variety to my meals. I am so grateful to have the expertise of Helen guiding me to a healthier lifestyle.


Jill M 56

When it comes to meal planning, the app has been a game-changer! I can plan simple meals and snacks, and even swap out foods if I wish. By tracking my food choices, water intake, and exercise on a daily log within the app, I can hold myself accountable for the goals I have set for myself. The grocery list feature allows me to add any ingredients I need right into my Instacart app with a click and my meals are planned and shopped for!! So convenient.

I have been pleasantly surprised with the app and Helen’s input when it comes to making weeknights a little less hectic, and a little healthier!
