KEEPING FIT WHILE ON THE MOVE

STAY FIT

Keep fit while on the move. There is nothing worse than being out of commission, with a bout of the "loosies". Follow these simple steps to remain in fine fettle, and sound as a bell!

WATER AND FOOD

Eliminate chances of getting Delhi Belly or Montezuma's Revenge(gastro enteritis) by eating and drinking sensibly. Drink only bottled water. When not available, use water purification tablets. If doubtful about the source of water, stay with a hot cup of tea, coffee or aerated drinks. Always remember to brush your teeth with bottled or purified water.

Drink plenty of water/fluids when travelling in hot countries as dehydration suddenly catches up with you.

Eat only freshly cooked food at clean and well-patronised places. Avoid salads and cut fruit, eat only fruit that you can peel. Do not eat food that has been left in the open or appears stale. Avoid meat and fish during the summer months in tropical countries.
