Does Travel Make You Sick? Here Are 4 Ways to Prevent it and Reclaim Your Vacation
DURHAM, N.C., July 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Has jet lag ever hampered the first few days of your vacation? Or has motion sickness spoiled what was to be a gorgeous boat trip to faraway lands? Travel-related disorders, such as high-altitude sickness, motion sickness and jet lag, are very common; with appropriate preparation, however, they can be prevented or at least easily managed.
Melatonin supplements, for example, can help you quickly reset your body clock when you land in a new country. Similarly, simply closing your eyes or looking at objects at a distance can alleviate symptoms of seasickness. DAN Boater has compiled useful tips such as these into a new guide designed to help boaters and travelers learn how to prevent and manage travel-related disorders.
The association's newest guide, titled 4 Common Travel Disorders and How to Manage Them, provides tips and professional guidance on travel-related illnesses, convering questions such as:
- Want to learn how to combat jet lag on your next trip?
- Are long-distance boaters at risk for DVT?
- Know someone who suffers from motion sickness when they travel?
- Could high altitude illness be a factor on your mountain climbing trip?
DAN Boater is committed to helping recreational boaters and global travelers in need of emergency assistance — on land and sea — and to promoting smart travel health and safety practices through research and education. The association's blog is also a useful resource for other travel health and safety tips.
