Travel is the time when most of our healthy eating habits go for a toss. But it’s as simple as this, do we stop brushing our teeth when we are on a holiday? No! Because that’s a part of our routine. Similarly, healthy eating and exercising shouldn’t be counted as extra work.
Despite this, let’s look at tips that you can follow on your next trip to make sure you are eating healthy, enjoying your travel and keeping your system clean.
