Stop eating for 24 hours, but continue to sip bottled water frequently (coconut water or a probiotic drink if you can find one is great too!). It is a good idea to carry some re-hydrating medication with you at all times. If you feel like eating try dry biscuits, unbuttered toast orplain rice. Stay away from dairy products and sugary foods or drinks. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
  • When travelling in the tropics, the risk of sunburn and dehydration is extreme. Even though there may be cloud cover you can still get very sunburnt.
