Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter shares strategies for staying healthy while traveling, especially in places like Bali where food poisoning is common. He recommends taking pre and probiotics and staying hydrated to strengthen your gut microbiome.
Especially in this climate, and we were doing a lot of physical activity. What do you think prevented us from getting ill? Because Bali Belly is a real thing, right? Like food poisoning here is a real thing. We did not get sick at all. We were here three weeks. Well, and we say food poisoning, but really what it is is that our gut, our microbiome, is not attuned to the natural bacteria and other things in this environment. So what we did is made sure that our biome was really strong. So I took extra pre and probiotics every day, made sure that I drink lots of water to keep everything moving through my system. It can be really strong and healthy, especially in this climate, and we were doing a lot of physical activity.
