Barely alive in India, send strength...

in travel •  7 years ago 

So sorry to hear you have Delhi Belly! As someone who has visited India many times may I suggest a local remedy there that always works for me?

Ask for the water of a green coconut..that is the coconut still inside the husk. They will lop the top of it off with a machete and stick a straw into it for you with the husk still on the outside.
The straw sits in the water around the actual coconut and this is what you must drink

Raw natural coconut water has many healing properties and has saved me several times especially when I traveled in rural India and ate the wrong thing!
Hope you feel better very soon :-)

Those coconut vendors were all over Kolkata, and i wanted to have one, but never seemed to be stopped by one long enough. We had them all around florida where I lived for a decade as well.

Good advice. It turned out to be children's lime popsicles that got me through! :D
