Why travelling makes us ill and see doctor after the trip

taking photo from the plane...bukan 'sakai'




1. You are not eating your normal balanced and healthy diet

Yes...we like to try different food when we are away from hometown, the food that we are not used to take (too spicy, too salty etc)..and we eat food from stalls and streets (Hygienic?)...
Again, healthy eating is the least priority
And...while attending function or meetings...buffet and heavy meals in hotels are irresistable!!
Believe me...i don't thing we eat enough vegetables while travelling too. :)


2. You don't drink enough water

We walk, we carry bags, we go up staircase and even run for last minute things...so we require more that normal days of water intake...it is a simple truth...
We think we must drink just enough because we dont want to go to toilet too often...some people do and think like this
Most of our drinks are not plain water...am I right?



3. You don't take enough sleep and rest

Waking up early and do not want to close our eyes too early because there are too many things to see and to do....Friends will make you awake all night long...to mention a few reasons.
Always on the go and no time to rest..maybe rest when back home...why missed everything in this trip...mmmmmm...true!



4. Your body is not used to long distance & physically demanding activity

When you board a flight you have to carry heavy bags. You walk and walk because you don't travel with your favourite vehicle. You walk endlessly to shop... till you drop. Walking with your favourite shoes that mostly not comfortable...problem knees and back...huh..


5. You forget your medicine....

If you have medical problem...it is not wise to go medicine-free for a few days.
Diabetics with all the nice foods and canned drinks on top of not taking your usual medicine.
Hypertensive with all the salty fried fast food.
Asthmatics with all the unfamiliar weather and.... airconditioned as well as carperted hotel's room. ...just to mention a few situations.



6. You do not enjoy the travelling

Sometimes you will not enjoy your trip...instead, being so much stressed.
Go for a trip not to unwind and have a break but full with conflicts and must do things.
Visiting in laws is not fun...one of my client did say that to me...ha..ha..



>>>>

So guys and girls...all mentioned points above will weakened your immune systems and become a test for your unfit body and stressful mind

Enjoy your holiday...and to all friends and followers who celebrate Gawai Festival
Selamat Hari Gawai...
