KISS Principle Travel Med Support

Everyone (well, nearly everyone) likes to Travel, some places might have a great Medical Infrastructure and Pharma shops so help is generally close by.

Some places might not be so lucky (but still great places to visit) and some places like on a mission (I did Urban Search and Rescue in some countries who were not so lucky )

Here is some extra stuff I take with me (I say extra because I always have a small Pharma/first aid kit on Travel

* more at the end)

Oregano oil

Active Charcoal - Capsules

- Powder

ActiveCharcoal is great stuff, it is not same as normal charcoal (I guess in a pinch you could use it too)

if say you eat something which may have been dodgy and you dont have a Doc near you then you can try this

because Active Charcoal is great at absorbing Toxins that are in your body, but not those in your blood stream.

You just take one or two capsules with water at the onset of somethng. You can also use Active Charcoal powder by mixing some in a glass of water and drinking.

I was twice hit by bad food in the Army some years ago (nowadays a lot better) the first time I landed in the med center for about three days, where someone mentioned Charcoal. The second time I got my Girlfriend to make me a piece of burned toast (as in Burned black!) I smeared jam on it and was ok.

BIG Point to note, this info given here is for your entertainment only (?) I take no responsibility for it if you use and get bad.....

The Active Charcoal is not only good on the inside but on the outside!

Sometimes even the smallest wounds can get infected real soon, especially in

warm areas like the Tropics. So imagine you´ve got a big wound on your arm,

its got dirt in it what can you do? First clean your wound with water distilled

if you have it but otherwise clean then mix a mud or slurry of water

and Active Charcoal powder, paste it thick on the wound and put a dressing on it.

Check in about an hour or two and if the need is there paste more on top.

You don´t have to worry about the mess getting into you it is organic and would be absorbed.

Oregano Oil is one of the best natural Anti-virals, Anti-fungals and Anti-microbial.

more later on that. Just imagine you have your holliday/vacation booked and tommorow is the big day!

Then oh, oh, you feel a cold coming on or is it flu etc. (Maybe you are on holliday and it starts !)

Thats where the Oregano oil comes in. However take care!!!!!! You will see in the photo that it is 100%

that is far too strong to use as it will burn your throat ! You have to thin it down 1/20 with olvive oil

this means 1 part oregano oil to 20 parts olive oil.

Then when you want to use it put about 10 drops or tea spoonful in a glass of water/juice/milk and drink.

(I thined it down 1/20 and tasted it, uuhhhhh was still a burner so dont forget to add juice or such

you may find that you have bought 1/20 and just need to add water etc..

I hope that this was useful.

There is a lot of research out there about stuff like oregano oil since NORMAL(?) Antibiotics etc. are getting hit

with resistant Bacteria/viruses.

ahere are some good books to seek out. The first two are about natural Antibiotics or virals using Herbs

Bottom right is a great pocket sized book about Health etc on Travell showing conventional and herbal remedies.

Bottom left is a great book for those wanting deeper information, Sam was a Green Beret Medic for many years and during his time came accross Herbal remedies that work and researched deep into them. He also teaches various courses in USA and also some online courses too.

Another thing for Travelling on holliday to think about is your teeth, first off if you start getting tooth ache basicly your holliday is KAPUTT ! I remember doing Humanitarian Help and seeing lots of Doctors on mission but I never saw

any Dentists. Remedy, 1) go to Dentist before you go 2) look on the internet "Dental First Aid Kit"

Generally they help with tooth loss, filling/crown loss etc. You can always get oil of cloves which burns firdst and then numbs the area, if you cant get that chew on a clove. I hope this information is useful use with care!
