Managing Endometriosis While Traveling: How mm food Makes Dining Out in Turkey Easier
Traveling to Turkey offers vibrant bazaars, ancient ruins, and legendary cuisine – but dining out with endometriosis can feel daunting. Between language barriers and hidden inflammatory ingredients like gluten, dairy, and excess sugars, enjoying Turkish food safely requires careful navigation.

Why Diet Matters for Endometriosis in Turkish Cuisine
Endometriosis thrives on inflammation, and Turkish culinary staples often contain common triggers:
- Börek and Pide: Flaky pastries packed with gluten and dairy
- Creamy Dips (Cacık, Haydari): Yogurt-based sauces high in dairy
- Fried Mezes: Inflammatory oils in calamari or eggplant dishes
- Sugary Desserts: Baklava and şerbetli treats that spike inflammation
- Processed Meats: Salamis and sausages in breakfast spreads
