Anyoe here from the German speaking part of Switzerland? I'm an American living in Zurich, and my German isn't so good, so I'd love any pointers on ingredients. I know all the major grain names, but some of the little additives are a bit tricky--for example I was eating hydrogenated oil here for months because I had translated it wrong. I also don't know the labeling laws very well--seems to be optional to say if something has allergic stuff or possible cross contamination.

Hi!

I do not live in Zurich but I was hoping to get a little advice! I will be going to Zurich next weekend for a few nights and was wondering if you have any suggestions of places to eat or buy food.

Thank you! Any advice will help!

Enjoy your day.

I'm not sure about gluten-free dining--I just went gluten-free last week and haven't even considered eating out. All the health food stores carry gluten-free foods--there are two big chains, the Mueller Reformhaus and the Egli stores. There is an Egli in the shopping mall part of the main train station (underneath the ground floor). Luckily gluten free is "gluten-frei" (rhymes with fry) in German.

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.

      I am not sure where you are going, but we have articles in this section which may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/

      There are supplements available that can help breakdown minor amounts of gluten such as you might experience with cross contamination when dining out and you order gluten free items from a menu. But they will not help when larger amounts of gluten are consumed. One such product that many on this forum attest to as having helped them in this regard is GliadinX. The inventor of GlidinX is one our forum sponsors so you should know that.

      There is such a thing, believe it or not, called gluten withdrawal. Gluten has addictive properties similar to opiates. I know it sounds bizarre but research it. Also, are you compensating for the loss of vitamins and minerals you were getting from the FDA mandated fortified wheat flour products you were formerly consuming?
