Stick to bottled water

When you are travelling, it is always suggested to drink bottled, mineral water. Water, of contaminated can easily cause food poisoning and there is no guarantee that local water will suit you.

Eat freshly cooked and hot food

Be very careful with your food as well. Always make sure that you are eating food that is freshly cooked and piping hot because heat kills bacteria, making them safer to consume. Avoid street food and never eat from shops that don't look hygienic.

Peel fruits on your own

Do not consume pre-cut fruits or raw salads when travelling. If you want to have fruits, buy them fresh and peel them yourself so that you are aware of the quality and condition.
