Probiotics are a key for us. We take them for 3 weeks prior ...... during the vacation...and then for 2 weeks after. Of course that won't protect you against everything.......but it's been great for us.
I agree probiotics are awesome. I've recently had some stomach issues and the doctors couldn't figure it out...three days of probiotics and poof all better. I don't eat dairy or pretty much anything with a label so natural fermented foods like kim chi is out..so capsule form of probiotics works out nicely. Christy
