Tip #4: How to Stay Healthy in Hotel Rooms (tips listed below)

We probably all know that hotel rooms are not that clean after all. And without being condescending, judgmental, critical, impolite or rude, hotel room cleaning is probably not the most exciting or high paying occupation, and I suppose the hardworking people laboring away at this chore are at best applying a minimum standard of care. I bet making all of these beds is tough enough. I'm pretty sure not all bedspreads or quilts inside the duvet covers are wash every day.

According to Dr. Philip M. Tierno, a professor of microbiology at the New York University School of Medicine, "common places of travel, such as cabs, airports, airplanes, hotels, restaurants and business meetings, are battlefields in the never-ending war against germs" (Source: news article Seattle times, 08/04/12).

The same article references a study done by a Yale researcher who found that a person entering a room could add about 37 million bacteria to the air every hour. So now that's pretty scary. What do we do to stay healthy? Your best bet is to boost your immune system. You want to do that a few days prior to your travels, and ideally, you work on strengthening your immune system every day of the week so you're ready to fight these germs.

DannyTheCoach.com can help you with that - reach out today!

A few tips to boost your immune system:
  • Vitamin A: Snack on carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, dark leafy greens, cantaloupe, wild-caught Alaskan salmon, organic pastured-raised eggs, grass-fed & pasture-raised beef.
  • Vitamin D: Get sunshine on your skin is the best. Look for raw grass fed milk, wild-caught Alaskan salmon, organic pastured-raised egg, high-grade cod liver oil.
  • Vitamin C: Citrus fruits, leafy greens, bell peppers and broccoli, wild organic berries.
  • Vitamin K: Important for healthy blood clotting - abundant in leafy green veggies, animal foods.
  • Zinc: Helps create & activate immune system's white blood cells, helps with enzymatic reactions needed for wound healing. It's found in grass fed beef, turkey & chicken.
  • Water: DRINK DRINK DRINK - it's vital to flush food through your system, flushing toxins out and keeping your body hydrated. Remember - A gallon a day will keep the doctor away!
It is impossible to live in a germ-free environment. And using toxic chemicals to clean every single space in your hotel room, cab or airplane is dangers, not possible and not recommended.

A few tips while at a hotel room:
  • Wash your hands up to your wrists for 10 - 15 seconds. Backs, between fingers, fingernails. Use hot water.
  • Try not to come in contact with the top comforter or duvet cover. Pull it to the end of the bed. Avoid touching it if you can.
  • Bring sanitizing wipes or use a clean, damp towel and wipe down the sink, bathroom countertop, toilet handle & shower faucets.
  • Clean/Wipe down all the door handles, knobs, TV remote, phone, refrigerator, bedside tables, chairs…anything that could harbor germs.
  • Wash the glass you'll be using. They might not be as clean as you think.
  • Watch out for air fresheners. They can disinfect the air a little bit but your lungs will suffer from all the toxic chemicals. Ask management to remove those air fresheners if any way possible.

Also keep in mind that about 80% of all infectious diseases are passed on by direct or indirect human contact. And when we travel, our encounters multiply exponentially. Try staying away from sneezing, coughing co-travelers.
