Gastrointestinal Health: How to Protect Your Gut While Dining or Travelling Outside?

Gut Health Tips: Gut health is important for overall well-being since the gut contains billions of microorganisms that aid digestion, immunological function, and mental health. A healthy gut microbiota promotes food absorption, decreases inflammation, and keeps dangerous bacteria at bay. However, while dining out or travelling, new meals, unusual eating regimens, and unsanitary conditions can all have a negative impact on gut health. In this video, our expert Dr Vidhi Chawla will decode some tips and effective methods to take care of your gut health while travelling or enjoying your vacation.

How to Protect Gut Health While Travelling?

To preserve your gut, eat freshly cooked meals, avoid hot or oily foods, and take probiotic-rich options such as yogurt. Stay hydrated and wash your hands frequently to avoid foodborne illnesses. Carry healthy snacks like fruits and nuts to maintain a balanced diet, and choose bottled or filtered water in unfamiliar places to avoid stomach problems. Eat grilled, and baked snacks rather than fried food. The more fried food you eat, the more it will harm your gut health. Avoid more sugary and irritated drinks.
