Dear Friends: For these past six months, I've been writing 'Fat Flush for Life,' the latest plan in the Fat Flush detox diet series. It is the first Fat Flush year-round program for permanent weight loss! And, you can preorder yours today! In addition to brand new fitness routines, there is a seasonal wellness program I think you will love. In the meantime, June is upon us and that means travel season is right around the corner. Here are some timely tips to keep in mind so that you can remain healthy and return home safe and sound: - Skip the salad. Including fruit salad. Especially when you’re traveling in a relatively undeveloped country, don’t eat vegetables that are not extremely well cooked. Don’t touch raw salads no matter how well washed. And personally, I wouldn't’t eat fruit, even if you peel it first, unless that fruit is a banana.
- And, by all means, skip the salad bar. Serve-yourself salad and food bars, in any country, are just colorful buffets of bacteria. First of all, the food literally sits out for hours. Dishes are often “married” together, meaning that restaurant workers combine leftover, potentially-already-spoiling food with fresh hot food in a continual round robin of bacteria.
- Do a covert kitchen inspection. You should also be mindful of cooked food that has been contaminated by unsanitary handling techniques. If you can, take a peek into the kitchen and watch the way food is being prepared. If you’ve decided to brave a salad, check to make sure that gloves are worn by the salad makers.
- Dust your food. I often take along some powdered charcoal from activated charcoal capsules, my very own stash of “CharDust,” OR Flora-Key which can be sprinkled on foods.
- Don’t eat off the street. Along with this advice, remember to avoid consuming drinks or food bought from street vendors. They are often contaminated with pathogens.
- Choose specific ethnic foods. The safest restaurants to frequent would be Italian, Greek, Moroccan, Turkish, Lebanese, and Indian because of the rich use of pathogen-fighting garlic, oregano, and cayenne in these cuisines.
- Eat before a plane flight. But now researchers have found that a snack before take off is healthy for a different reason. Eating raises your blood volume and can keep you from feeling light headed or having circulatory problems when you’re air borne. Food and drink protects you against the negative effects of the low pressure in the airplane cabin at high altitudes. Try pumpkin seeds, which will not only parasite-proof your body but contain fats, protein, and carbs for blood sugar regulation as well.
- But not on the plane. The CDC cautions that you shouldn't’t assume that water and food on a commercial airliner is always safe to consume. Those items may have originated in the country from which a flight takes off. So you should assume they could be contaminated and don’t eat or drink them.
- My motto: Eat, drink, and be wary.
