An Ounce of Prevention…

New germs, lots of crowds, and irresistible street food. When you travel you expose your body to all kinds of challenges, so feeling well on a vacation is a must!  You don’t have to travel paranoid or bring a full medicine cabinet with you to stay healthy.  Outside of the more serious or unusual exposures, these key items will be your tonic, and keep you armed with “an ounce of prevention (that will be worth) a pound of cure”:

• An antihistamine like Benadryl
• An antibiotic
• Anti-diarrhea like Imodium
• Motion sickness medicine like Dramamine
• Good ol’ Advil
• Keep your body moving – walking, dancing, swimming… It doesn’t have to be strenuous or boring, but we all know moving is good for you.

You could do an apple a day too, but we know you’re saving room for that currywurst or Bao Luo Fen.

Safe and healthy travels!
