Support Digestive-Sensitive Inclusion in Restaurants, Cafés, and Hospitality Spaces

Petycja skierowana do: European Parliament Petitions Committee

People living with digestive conditions such as IBS, bloating, reflux, cramps, food sensitivities, stress-sensitive digestion, and other chronic gastrointestinal issues often experience more than physical discomfort.
Many gradually become socially isolated and anxious about eating in public spaces due to:
• uncertainty about food ingredients, 
• fear of symptoms, 
• lack of suitable options, 
• embarrassment, 
• and the absence of supportive hospitality practices. 
While allergen information has become increasingly standardized and legally recognized in many countries, people with non-allergic digestive sensitivities still face significant barriers when dining outside their homes.
We believe that restaurants, cafés, bars, and hospitality providers can become more inclusive through simple, realistic, and non-medical supportive measures.
