A gluten-free camping holiday

A gluten-free camping holiday – main image

As a malicious Chinese once said, may you live in interesting times. And we live in a world of smog and a growing number of lifestyle diseases. The group of people suffering from gluten-related diseases (celiac disease, gluten allergy and intolerance , Dühring's disease) is also growing, having a negative impact on the digestive system. Gluten is found in cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oats. Patients should avoid, among others: bread made from these cereals, breaded dishes, noodle and whitened soups. In addition , gluten may contain many products, such as: cold cuts, blue cheeses, salads with dressings. This repeated "among others" can be problematic on vacation. We are sure about home-cooked food, but what about restaurants, cafes and fast food bars? Of course, you can cook on your own while on vacation, take products with the crossed-out grain with you or look for them in local stores. You can also choose tourist facilities where a person with a gluten-sensitive disease will feel safe when choosing a dish from the menu. Below we present a list of such places.

Villagio Turistico Internationale

It opens with Villagio Turistico Internationale , a 4-star property right on the beaches of Veneto, less than 2 km west of the center of Bibione. A stone's throw from the Adriatic Sea, with a water park with heated swimming pools and a full accommodation package with exclusive apartments for the most demanding people - a real paradise for vacationers. There is also a gym and a playground on site.

Vacationers who would like to go on a gluten-free Italian holiday will be pleased with their stay. The camping restaurant is certified by the AIC (Italian Celiac Association), which means that guests with celiac disease can eat there safely.

To say that the facility has a lot to offer them is an understatement. It is a real paradise for people on a gluten-free diet! If you love Mediterranean cuisine, dishes based on pasta, meat (including fish), desserts or ice cream, you don't have to limit yourself. In many places you will see the symbol of a crossed grain.
