Vacation Vitamins: The Best Vitamins For Travel
Elderberry: A powerful antioxidant. Several studies, including a double-blind study that involved international travelers indicate that it can reduce the duration of colds.*
Vitamin C: You can get plenty of vitamin C by consuming fruits & vegetables. However, it’s easy to supplement with Vitamin C and it too has been known to shorten the duration of colds.*✝︎ Vitamin C is water soluble which means your body will absorb what it needs and eliminate the rest.
Vitamin D: Lots of positive attention & press being written about the benefits of Vitamin D. Some of those benefits include increased cognition, immune health & bone health.* The number of people who are deficient in vitamin D is surprising, especially among older adults.
Probiotics: This is good bacteria for the gut. Our digestive systems often need a boost when we travel as the foods we eat (or drink) can change from our home routines.
Magnesium: This mineral can help relax the nervous system which may aid with anxiety and sleep.* Magnesium is also known to help with bowel movements.* There’s never a good time to be constipated, but while you’re on road it’s even worse.
Vitamin B12: This vitamin may help boost energy for those with deficiencies.* Vegetarians & older adults are the people who are most likely to have a deficiency. Vitamin B12 is water soluble, which means if you have adequate levels your body will eliminate it.
Zinc: Studies published at the National Library of Medicine indicate zinc supplementation can reduce the duration of a cold by almost 3 days.* If you’re on a vacation, you want to get the most out of every day.

Just got back from a trip to Florida with my husband. We both took these vitamin packs and it was so convenient…. thank you!
I initially bought these because I was going on a trip and didn’t want to make a bunch of baggies of vitamins. Done with the trip but now just use them everyday.
