Is there anything than planning a trip eagerly awaiting the moment to embark on your adventure only to end up falling terribly ill instead? I don't think so. The whole purpose of a trip is to feel good not unwell. Unfortunately it's an occurrence for many travelers to get sick. However many of these issues can be easily avoided if you have the knowledge. Fortunately we're here to share that knowledge with you.

Forget about those boosters

First and foremost don't waste your money on those so called "immune boosters." It may be tempting to stock up on them as they promise protection against colds and flus. The truth is that there isn't much scientific research backing up their effectiveness. So save your money.

Leave vitamins aside

Here's another thing not worth bothering with;, over the counter vitamins. There's a rumor going around that loading up on vitamin C and zinc can improve your system but the scientific evidence is still inconclusive. Far very little benefit has been proven that makes it worth your while or money.

Preparing for Travel

One of the most reliable ways to strengthen your immune system for your upcoming travels is by training. Think of it as getting ready for a marathon. Putting effort into getting in shape before your trip will greatly increase your ability to fend off any illnesses you may encounter compared to not exercising at all.

Include Plenty of Fruits and Vegetables in Your Diet

Instead of relying solely on vitamins from the pharmacy opt for good old fruits and vegetables. They provide all the vitamins while also helping to maintain a balanced diet. It's wise to enter a vacation with a balanced system since you never know what delicious culinary surprises await you during your trip.

Consider Getting Vaccinated Against the Flu

For those who're skeptical about vaccines it's important to note that getting a flu shot does not actually give you the flu. Moreover if you're traveling to an area where theres an incidence of this years targeted flu strain getting vaccinated can provide valuable protection.

Practice Thorough Handwashing

It goes without saying. Always remember to wash your hands when away from home (or even when, at home).I hope you've been practicing hygiene throughout your life. However many people are unaware of the importance of washing their hands for least 20 seconds. This is the recommended duration to effectively eliminate bacteria and germs that may be present on your skin.

It's advisable to minimize touching door handles whenever possible as they can be breeding grounds for germs. Sink faucets, toilet levers and door handles are particularly notorious for harboring microorganisms. By using a paper towel to handle these surfaces you can avoid coming into contact with them and reduce the risk of getting sick as a result.

An interesting fact that not everyone knows is that alcohol acts as an immunosuppressant. In terms it weakens your bodys natural defense system against bacteria and infections. When traveling it's essential to have an immune system. Therefore it would be wise to limit alcohol consumption much as possible during your trip.

Lets talk about airline tray tables for a moment. Did you know that some people actually change their childs diapers, on these tables? Enough flight staff rarely clean them between flights. Does this information make you feel queasy? If not then good!To maintain cleanliness make sure to disinfect them right after you board.

Consider Wearing a Mask

I understand that it may not match your outfit perfectly. Its worth considering wearing a mask on the plane. Many individuals fall ill during their flights due to the recycled air, which means they arrive at their destination already sick and remain unwell throughout their trip. If you have a weakened system due to chronic illness or age wearing a mask during your flight might be beneficial, for you.
