Small pouch, big trip insurance — the 10-minute pack
Travel illness is boringly predictable: upset stomach, dehydration, motion sickness, headache, blisters. One pouch covers 90% of it — and the remaining 10% is knowing to carry prescriptions properly.
Traveller's diarrhoea + Indian summers. Sachets weigh nothing; mix per label.
Headache, fever, feast-related acidity — the two everywhere-safe basics.
Take 30-60 minutes BEFORE the winding road, not after the first wave.
New shoes, new blisters. A mini wound-care set earns its space.
The single best traveller's-diarrhoea prevention is clean hands before eating.
Carry double the trip's need, split across bags, with the prescription photo on your phone.
Beach or mountain, UV doubles outdoors all day.
Best ORS & Electrolyte Drinks in India
WHO-formula ORS (Electral, Electrobion) vs energy drinks like Enerzal — they are not the same thing. What to use for diarrhoea, heat and workouts.
Best Thermometer for Home Use in India
Digital stick vs infrared forehead thermometers — accuracy, speed and which to buy for a house with kids. Control D and Dolo Fevometer compared.
Best Sunscreen for Oily & Acne-Prone Skin in India
Gel and matte-finish sunscreens that don't trigger breakouts — Acne UV, La Shield, Photostable and Cetaphil Sun compared.
