Staying on a healthy track is more challenging when traveling. 

Using these 7 healthy travel tips may help reduce your risk of illness or fatigue so you can stay well and focus on enjoying time with friends and family! 

Tack on a day or two to acclimate: Taking a day off before a trip helps one to relax and ease into vacation mode, while an extra day after the trip gives one time to gradually ramp back up for daily life.

De-stress in advance of travel: Traveling, in general, can be stressful and subject one to jet lag and dehydration, as well as increased risk of illness. Be sure not to miss your workouts when you are looking forward to a vacation, as exercise helps the body to de-stress before the trip begins.

Maintain some healthy eating habits: If you’ll have access to a kitchen, make your first stop the grocery store and stock up on healthy breakfast options, such as fruit, yoghurt, oatmeal, eggs, or cut up vegetables and hummus. When dining out, opt for protein, high fiber salads and extra veggies. Considering carrying healthy snacks such as nuts, protein bars, dried veggies or fresh fruit, to prevent hunger and keep blood sugar stable while on the go. Be cautious about what you consume. When in doubt, skip the ice, tap water, and salad and opt for bottled water, thick-skinned peeled fruit and well-cooked foods.

Hydrate: When taking a flight, remember to hydrate. To help keep the immune system at its best, limit or avoid alcohol while travelling to your destination. Carry bottled water at all times and sip regularly to ensure sufficient hydration.

Carry disinfecting wipes: During air travel, try not to touch surfaces likely to be contaminated, including the tray tables, arm rests, and seat-back pockets on planes. Carry easily accessible disinfecting wipes to clean surfaces before use. Be sure to wipe down the air vents and turn them to low or medium pressure to create enough current to keep germs away. Directing air in front of your face, can also help relieve nausea for those who fall victim to air sickness.

Don’t overdo: Traveling can be hard on the body, so rest is extremely important. Crossing time zones, walking all day, and toting luggage may all take a toll. Listen to your body, rest when needed and be sure to get plenty of sleep. Many tend to overdo when sightseeing. Be active but pace yourself to avoid fatigue.

Breathe and balance: Whether you plan an active or leisure vacation, take a few minutes to center yourself with some stress-relieving deep breathing exercises that can be performed anywhere and anytime. When traveling for pleasure, soak up the local culture and have fun.  Take some leeway to enjoy things you don’t normally see, eat or do. If you overdo one day, take a breather the next. Just remember to keep balance in mind.
