Channel 13 viewers have noticed the absence of TV presenter Elad Zohar from morning shows and weather forecasts in recent days. Zohar, 44, revealed on his Instagram account Tuesday that he is suffering from severe vertigo that has confined him to his home. He explained that the condition prevents him from driving, interviewing guests, or appearing on camera. Zohar stated that the vertigo struck unexpectedly and that treatments so far have not provided the desired relief. He is currently taking medication for dizziness and hopes for improvement, noting that physical therapy has offered only minor help. Zohar, who also serves as the channel's senior meteorologist, co-hosts the morning show "Po'chim Yom" with Yarden Harel. He is also an active public advocate for celiac disease patients, having been diagnosed with gluten sensitivity in 2011. He has campaigned for lower prices on gluten-free products and for the inclusion of celiac children and teens in society. This is not Zohar's first absence from the screen; he was previously away for a period following the death of his father a year ago.
