Travel Tips To A Healthy Journey!
Before You Fly
Doctor's orders - If you suffer from any medical conditions, or are on
long term medication, talk to your doctor about your travel plans and discuss
whether you need to take any special precautions when flying.
Check if you need anti-malarial advice and remember, a full course of
immunization takes at least four weeks to complete.
Carry any regular medication in your hand luggage and ensure you have an
adequate supply for the duration of your trip.
If you have any concerns about your health when traveling, for example
traveler's thrombosis (DVT), please consult your doctor.
Take it easy Rest, allow lots of time, and there will be no need to rush.
Avoid heavy meals. Dress in loose, comfortable clothing and let a trolley
take the weight of your luggage.
During the Flight
Be a mover - Try not to sit still for too long. When convenient,
get out of your seat and move around the cabin. Stand up and stretch your
arms and legs every couple of hours and carry out basic exercise.
Go for the Light Bite - Eat a light meal and drink water, little and
often is best. Go easy on alcohol, coffee and tea!
Spoil Yourself - Indulge in some moisturizer to keep your skin feeling
fresh.
Sleep It Off - Help your body cope better when traveling to new time
zones by taking every opportunity to sleep en-route, every little nap will help.
