    Hi!
    I have heard "choque cultural" just like that.
    Hope it helps!

    Me gusta la opción de Hebe, "impacto cultura", suena muy natural. También oigo y leo mucho el préstamo innecesario "shock cultural".

    I agree... "impacto cultural" sounds better.

    Definitivamente, Hebe tu opción es la que yo usaría también. Por cierto ¿han escuchado la frase "choque proteico"?
    Es cuando una persona ingiere por ejemplo mucha carne de una vez y no acostumbra a hacerlo. Bueno, creo que la pregunta es para la parte de medicina pero estoy aprovechando el hilo.
