HEALTH PRECAUTIONS FOR KARNATAKA TRAVEL

'Health is Wealth' - this age-old adage holds true for all people and in all season. More so when we embark on a holiday tour and land up in foreign shores. After months of planning and excitement, nobody would want to fall sick and miss out on the fun and frolic.

If you are visiting the state during the hot summer months, always carry plenty of drinking water with you. Use sunscreen lotions and sunglasses to beat the scorching heat and the sweltering sun. Drink plenty of water to ward off dehydration and always prefer bottled mineral water.

You may be a foodie but do not gorge too much on roadside food. Ensure that proper hygiene and cleanliness have been observed in the roadside stalls. Make it a point to carry some essential medicines for any emergency.
