Non-Indians don’t have a natural immunity for diseases that are endemic to India, so extra precautions are necessary. A strong immune system is your best defense against disease. Nevertheless, it’s scarcely possible to know how much resistance you may have to completely new diseases, so it’s best to be careful. You can also take antioxidants to help strengthen your immune system.
Some people can eat and drink anything and never seem to get sick, but, almost inevitably, even a person with a very strong immune system who is indiscriminate in his or her eating habits will fall ill eventually, though the illness may take years to manifest. Certain diseases, such as amoebiasis, can remain dormant for many months or years before they become active, by which time you 111 might not even realize that your illness is something you picked up in India. By the time you figure it out, the disease may be so deeply embedded in your system that it is all but impossible to get rid of it. It’s just better to be careful and ask your Travel Agents.
Generally speaking, traveling to India is not advised if your health is poor, unless you are coming as a medical tourist and will be staying in a good facility. Otherwise, if you can afford to stay and eat in five-star hotels all the time, you will be fairly well insulated, 1 from most health problems. However, even if you are staying in. a five-star hotel, don’t just assume that you can eat everything on the menu with impunity. Mostly, you should be fine, but raw foods, shellfish and under cooked meat should still be avoided.
Before coming to India, see your doctor for a checkup as well as advice on vaccines and prevention of tropical diseases, etc. If your doctor has little experience with tropical diseases—which is true of most doctors—seek out someone with more experience. If you don’t feel like asking your own doctor to recommend some-one, contact the Center for Disease Control. Incidentally, there is recent evidence that vaccinations may have serious side effects that were previously unsuspected, so you may want to think twice about taking vaccinations that you don’t absolutely need.
A dental checkup is also a good idea before coming to India so that you don’t risk having problems while you’re here.
If you are always tired, your immune system will be weakened. Staying rested is your body’s best means of resisting illness. Eating a balanced, healthy diet is also essential for keeping your immunity up. A constant diet of junk food weakens your resistance.
Don’t be too rigid about following every single recommendation listed below or you may start to worry too much about what you are eating, and that’s not good for your health, either. De-pending on how strong or delicate your body is, you may be able to be a bit more relaxed about some points and still stay healthy, though that’s something you have to determine for yourself. It’s most important to use your common sense and pay attention to how your body reacts to different foods, etc.
