How To Manage Food Poisoning During Travel

Avoid dairy products

Avoid consuming dairy products such as milk or paneer while travelling as they might aggravate diarrhea. Look for light food options that are easy to digest

Wash your hands before eating

Make sure you wash your hands before eating as dirt and bacteria from your hands can get transferred to your food and worsen your situation

Have probiotics

Probiotic foods like yoghurt help manage diarrhea and digestive ailments. They will help you recover faster while travelling

Take rest

It is crucial for you to take rest as your body will need some time to recover. You might need to use the bathroom frequently which might get difficult if you go sightseeing

Have lots of liquids

Drink lots of liquids to prevent dehydration and maintain your electrolyte balance. Drink clean mineral water or boil water and consume it after it cools down
