WHAT’S THE BOTTOMLINE? SHOULD YOU GET YOUR OWN NIMA?

Nima is a portable gluten sensor that could potentially solve your gluten problems since it easily tests your food in just about minutes. However, the problem lies on its price; since the capsules that make Nima work contain a certain formula and chemistry, it could only be used once and it’s a bit pricey.

Avoiding food with gluten is not easy that’s why Nima seems very promising considering it makes everything easier—being portable and very much easy to use. However, the results are still not guaranteed with Nima as cross-contamination could still be possible as it only tests a small amount of food.
