Got big travel plans coming up? 1. That’s exciting. 2. There is no need to spiral about your wellness journey. You can be a jet setter and stay on track to reach your goals. You just need to set yourself up for success first. Here are our seven best tips to globe-trot without spiraling out of control.
1. Hydration is Your Non-Negotiable
If you only do one thing for your health while traveling, let it be this: hydrate like it’s your job. Planes are dehydrating, and long days exploring can leave you parched. Keep your SWW® water bottle on you at all times. Not only will this keep you quenched, but it will keep you from being tempted by sugary sodas and juices while you’re on the go.
2. Alkalize to Energize
Travel exposes your body to a mix of stressors: airplane air, indulgent meals, extra caffeine, and maybe a few cocktails. Combat that internal chaos by alkalizing daily. Our SWW® Alkalizing Greens Powder is your travel MVP. It helps rebalance your system and keeps you in fighting shape to face all your adventures.
3. Master the SWW Plate® (even at airports)
Yes, you can eat well while traveling. The SWW Plate® formula makes it simple: veggies and proteins first, carbs last. Whether you're navigating airport lounges or a guest at someone's home, this rule keeps your blood sugar steady and your cravings in check. Pro tip: Airport food is notoriously average and overpriced. Pack a few healthy snacks to tide you over while you’re en route to wherever you’re going to avoid not being prepared and indulging unnecessarily.
4. Never Drink on an Empty Stomach
Always pair alcohol with a protein-rich meal or snack to slow down absorption and keep your body from crashing later. A handful of almonds or a hard-boiled egg PRE-cocktail can go a long way.
5. Take Restore, Rest Deeply
Sleep can be elusive when you're traveling across time zones, but it’s essential for recovery. Our SWW® Restore supplement supports your body’s natural detox pathways and helps you get deep, restorative sleep. Take it before bed and wake up ready to explore.
6. Carbs After Dark
Travel often comes with more indulgent meals—and that’s okay! Just save your carbs for dinner. This helps keep your blood sugar balanced throughout the day and minimizes crashes. Pro tip: always pair your carbs with protein or fiber to avoid spikes and slumps.
7. Be Kind to Your Body
This is your reminder that perfection is not the goal. One imperfect meal or skipped workout won’t set you back.
So go ahead, enjoy your trip, sip the wine, take the detour. With these simple habits in your back pocket, you can travel well and feel amazing doing it.
