anyone do anything special to stay well for your dive trip? like a certain supplement you swear by to prevent colds, etc.? , also do you take pepto bismol chewables and start eating them a few days before travelling?
 
A big bowl of oatmeal for breakfast with fruit with a multi vitamin. A glass of carrot juice (12 oz) with an alfalfa sprout and cheese on whole wheat for lunch. A big fruit smoothie with eggs or egg whites around dinner. Other healthy snacks (nuts, fruits etc) in between. Sleep 8-9 hours every night. Exercise regularly.

I don't think there's a miracle pill or fruit but carrot juice seems to have given my immune system a boost.
 
I have been to Mexico about 6 times & Dominican Repulblic 3 times for dive trips. No intestinal problems at all. Just don't drink the water. Think CERVASA!
