Let’s pack to go on holiday - with no gut worries holding you back! 🏖️

Let’s be honest - keeping your gut happy while you're on the move can be a real challenge. But don't worry, we’ve got your back! 

We’ve put together a list of must-have items for your handbag, backpack, or suitcase so you can relax the whole trip with no gut troubles and no panic over IBS flares

Wipes

We've all had those moments - that sinking feeling when you realise a public toilet is out of toilet paper… 🧻

But for people dealing with diarrhoea, constipation or any gut troubles, this situation can sweat-inducing. 

Instead of feeling stuck or hoping for a random act of kindness, the Gut Wealth team recommends packing tissues or wipes in your bag. 

Stock up on those supplies and breathe a little easier knowing you're prepared for anything ✨

We love Cheeky panda tissues and Wype’s spray

Sanitiser

If you're dealing with upset digestion or IBS, tossing a hand sanitiser in your travel bag is a smart move. 

Think of it as your germ-fighting sidekick, especially when you're stuck in less-than-sparkling-clean restrooms 🦠

If you find yourself making more toilet stops, having hand sanitiser handy is like a shield against those pesky germs. It's all about staying ahead of the game, keeping your hands clean, and dodging unwanted bugs that could worsen your symptoms!

Water Bottle 💦

When preparing for a holiday with IBS, having essentials at your fingertips is key 🗝️ 

While a bottle of water is generally handy for staying hydrated, it becomes even more vital if you often experience diarrhoea or constipation - a hydrated gut is a healthy gut 💩

Staying hydrated is crucial for rehydration and can help alleviate stomach upsets. We highly recommend investing in a small, reusable water bottle that you can effortlessly take with you wherever your holiday adventures lead ⛰️

Loose Clothing

Wearing loose clothing isn't just about feeling comfy—it's a game-changer for your gut! Less pressure, less bloating, and less gassy discomfort 💨 

Plus, loose clothes let your digestive organs do their thing without any squeezing or squishing, which can help keep acid reflux under control!

And here's the best part: when your clothes aren't hugging you too tightly, there's less chance of irritation or inflammation in your belly area. So, keep this in mind when you're shopping for your holiday clothes 🛍️ 

Gut Wealth Supplements

Travelling can throw off your routine in more ways than one, and for people with IBS, that can mean dealing with some unwelcome symptoms. 

Whether it's new foods, stress, or just eating at irregular times, your gut might start acting up. 

That's where Gut Wealth supplements come in handy! Packed with goodies like postbiotics and a vitamin & mineral blend, they can give your digestion the boost it needs and help ease symptoms like bloating, gas, and unpredictable bathroom visits 🚽 💩

Happier poos = happier you!

Euro Key

If you’re travelling to Europe this one is for you! 

Not many people know this but you can get a EuroKey (European Disabled Toilet Key). It's like a secret pass 🤫 that unlocks specially designed accessible toilets and fits about 12,000 locks! 

With the Eurokey system, people dealing with IBS can unlock accessible toilets easily, making sure they have a toilet when they need it most - like during those unexpected flare-ups or emergencies 🚨

The Eurokey brings a sense of relief and comfort whether you’re out and about or travelling 🧡

Last but definitely not least … Don’t forget your passport and enjoy yourself!
