Be Healthy on Holiday!

We all know a great natural diet and healthy lifestyle cannot be beaten. Following this type of regime may not always be that easy however, especially when on holiday. Foreign or in-flight meals may not agree with everybody, jet lag, lack of fluids, tiredness, being cramped and in close proximity to crowds and queues can expose you to a greater degree of viruses and bacteria, which your immune system may find it hard to repel. How many of us have come back from holidays with colds?

We have compiled a range of easy to pack products that “fill the travel health gap” which may assist you in maintaining your system in tip top condition. These products are from leading manufacturers and supported by some of the UK’s leading Nutritionists. These products are the highest quality and all have references and advice associated with them.

Tourist Information.

The Helsinki Tourist Information Centre hands out excellent books of walks [in English] with good maps. They also issue a multi-lingual guide on what to look out for from the 3T tram, a figure of eight route that passes many points of interest.

Suomenlinna.

Suomenlinna is a UNESCO world heritage site at the coast of Helsinki. Suomenlinna is an old sea fortress and the biggest of its kind in whole Europe. Suomenlinna is built on four different islands connected by bridges. It was build by the king of Sweden to protect Sweden against Russians. There is a scheduled ferry connection to Suomenlinna from the market square about every 30 minutes per hour daily. A couple of hundred people live in Suomenlinna.

The West End.

The West End of London is part of the city centre of London in England. The city centre also includes the City of London, which is the financial district, and by some definitions some other districts as well. The West End contains the highest concentration of London's attractions, shops, administrative functions and business headquarters. It also includes most of its major theatres, so the term 'West End' is also used to refer to London's commercial theatre.
