E34 | Health Explored | Switzerland - Alpine Flavors

Our Swiss journey begins at the Neuro Culinary Center, where a gastroenterology researcher demonstrates how sugar affects blood glucose in real time. Through hands-on testing, we see immediate physiological responses, sparking conversations about metabolism, diet, and long-term health. Next, we visit the Herb Hotel, where hyper-local alpine ingredients create rich, grounded flavours connected to season and place. We learn traditional cheese-making methods before visiting Salzano, a renowned Green Michelin Star restaurant known for elevating Swiss mountain cuisine. The day ends with a sunset hike up a mountain, finishing with raclette melted over an open flame—a perfect celebration of the region’s flavour, simplicity, and beauty.
