4 Tips for Healthy Travel

4 Tips for Healthy Travel

Em Batger

Travel is back. It's pretty exciting; maybe more so for those lucky Aussies who actually have tickets to a European summer (if only that were me). After a 2 year hiatus it's easy to forget just how uncomfortable a long haul flight in economy can be. I get terrible restless legs so for me extended periods of sitting does not bode well but I have learnt over the years a few little tricks that make these journeys much more bearable. Firstly the trigger ball comes in my carry on. Yep that's right and it's probably the most important item in my handbag. Why?

Is travelling your dietary downfall? According to Susie, "If you regularly jet set around the country for work you will know how difficult it can be to keep your diet on track. Plane food, airports, hotels and conferences are just some of the locations which can make finding fresh, nutritious and carb controlled foods very difficult." With this in mind, Susie provides her six simple steps to help keep our diets on the healthy track when working away from home.
