Health tips

10 easy ways to make flying safer and more enjoyable

1. Take a good quality vitamin and mineral supplement along with an anti-oxidant (vitamins A, C & E preferably with bioflavanoids and selenium or zinc).

2. Drink plenty of water and avoid too much tea, coffee and alcohol.

3. Wear looser fitting clothes and especially shoes than you would normally do.

4. Stretch and contract your leg muscles especially on and off throughout the flight.

5. Take a tissue with tea tree essential oil on it and sniff on and off throughout the flight.

6. Take a personal sound system with you so you can listen to your own music or recorded book.

7. Put your watch forward to the time at your destination as soon as you get on the plane and keep checking the time as you fly.

8. Get up and move around the cabin every couple of hours, or if that is difficult, stand up and stretch your body.

9. If flying with children take plenty for them to do and lots of snacks.

10. Invest in a session with a Passport4Health practitioner to ensure you are in tip top health for all your flights.
