TRAVEL Sickness
Getting sick while on vacation is always a bummer. After dropping large sums of money, spending time planning and building up excitement, having to miss out on the adventure and fun because of an illness is a feeling that no one wants to experience. While some things are out of your control, there are a few travel tips and tricks that will help you get out of sickness and into a swimsuit!
1. Stay hydrated
The second you start to feel under the weather, grab some water and don't let it go. Flushing the ailments and toxins out of your body is one of the best ways to get better quick.
2. Go to the local pharmacy
A lot of travelers may shy away from going to the local pharmacy when on vacation, but it is there to help you! Get some flu medication—your body will thank you.
3. Plan seated activities
If you aren't feeling up for walking around your travel destination, plan a bus tour! See the sites while saving energy—it's a win, win.
4. Consume a lot of citrus fruits
Whether you are drinking hot lemon water with honey or peeling yourself a fresh orange, eating and drinking citrus fruits will put you on the road to recovery.
5. Don't get mad, get proactive!
One of the worst things you can do when you get sick on vacation is to beat yourself up about it. Rather than wallowing, improve your attitude and your health will come around as well.
