Gluten-free shopping workshop in Maribor
A gluten-free workshop was organized on 31st January 2019 in cooperation of Slovenian celiac
society and Focus IN CD project. Young celiac disease patients have learned how to shop gluten-free.
Trying to follow a strict gluten-free diet can be overwhelming, and your first few gluten-free
shoppings will be challenging; however, it will become easier over time. If you have just started
eating gluten-free, you will be glad to learn tips and tricks on how to find safe gluten-free products,
which products are naturally gluten-free, which may contain hidden gluten, how to organize your
shopping, where you have to be careful, and much more. Read more: https://www.interreg-

The most important part of gluten-free shopping for those following a strict gluten-free diet is
reading and decoding the labels (the ingredients). We have provided young celiac disease patients
with some tips.
The best advice comes from experienced coeliac disease patients and their family members. The
workshop was led by Simona Ornik.
