Whether travelling abroad as far as Australia or spending your holiday in the UK, travel health is a subject that concerns many of us. In particular, our digestive health can be affected by various factors whilst travelling – including dehydration, eating and drinking differently, lack of exercise, less sleep, changes in time zones and other unusual stressors. We will also inevitably come into contact with unfamiliar bacteria.
All of these changes can disturb the normal healthy balance of your digestive system and it is useful to support your gut before, during and after travel:
Before travelling, make a plan – buy some healthy snacks to take with you, find accommodation with a kitchen and start taking your good bacterial supplements.
During travel – drink only bottled water, focus on healthy foods (including vegetables and fermented foods if you can find them), don’t go overboard with alcohol and you might want to double up on the good bacteria supplements.
After travelling, when you are back home – get back into your routines, diet and local time zone as quickly as possible and continue taking friendly bacteria for at least another week or until you feel that your digestive system is back to normal.
Helps maintain a balanced intestinal microbiota for people on the move
ProVen Probiotics Acidophilus & Bifidus for Travel is designed to help maintain a balanced digestive system whilst travelling. Each capsule contains 12.5 billion of the extensively studied Lab4 group of friendly bacteria, together with calcium, ginger, and glutamine.
ProVen Probiotics for Travel contains 14 easy-to-take capsules, designed specifically for easy packing and use. The small thin boxes mean it is easy to pop a few packs in your suitcase and they will not add to your weight limits if flying with hand luggage only.
The product is suitable for men, women and children from two years of age as the capsules can be opened and the contents sprinkled onto cold food or drink. For babies under two, we recommend ProVen Probiotics baby products.
ProVen Probiotics for Travel do not spoil easily and do not need to be kept cold in a refrigerator. They should be stored away from intense heat in a cool, dry place.
