On a journey from Ibadan to Shagamu back in 2008, we barely just left the motor park
 when my stomach started singing Sunday games as we got to the express, it became
 intense and by this time I was profusely sweating despite the cross ventilation. Few
 minutes later I was the only passenger awake as sleep is the last thing on my mind,the
 only thing I cared about was how to relief myself of the excretory pressure I was feeling
 while regretting adding vegetable sauce to the noodles I ate earlier, shyness denied me
 talking and I had to face the consequences, belief me it was a horrific experience. What I
 experienced is called Travellers Diarrhea.
 Traveller's Diarrhea is a digestive tract disorder that commonly causes loose stools and
 abdominal cramps.Symptoms do vary, some experience just one while for some two or
 even more, here are some of the symptoms of Travellers Diarrhea;
 passage of loose stool three or more times a day.

 People prone to or have experienced it before will always feel some form of anxiety
 whenever they want to travel, Sticking to the following precautionary measures a day
 prior travelling can reduce the severity of the symptoms to a great extent:
 avoid consuming street food.
 -avoid pasteurized milk and diary products like ice-cream.
