Navigating Endometriosis at Korean BBQ: Your Safe Eating Guide
Eating out with endometriosis can feel like navigating a culinary minefield, especially at Korean BBQ restaurants where hidden triggers lurk in marinades and side dishes. Common endometriosis triggers like gluten, soy, refined sugars, and processed meats are abundant in traditional Korean BBQ. But with smart strategies and the right tools, you can enjoy safe and delicious dining.
Common Endometriosis Triggers to Recognize
Korean BBQ menus often feature:
- Soy-based marinades (containing gluten and estrogen-like compounds)
- Heavily processed meats
- Dishes with high sugar content (e.g., bulgogi sauce)
- Sesame oil-tossed banchan (side dishes)
- Cross-contamination risks on shared grills

Try these mm food-approved approaches:
