Traveling can be an exciting adventure. There are new destinations to explore, exciting foods to try, and lots of opportunities to be active. The most beautiful trip can be ruined, however, by an ailment that hits you unexpectedly.
Struggling to find effective medicine or remedies to ease your malady can leave you feeling frustrated and lost. But if you have the comforts of your home remedies as part of your travel gear, you’ll get back to enjoying your trip and feeling in control much more quickly.
In this article, we’ll talk about common travel emergencies and the importance and appreciation of bringing a travel kit, such as the AnnaKare Portable Remedy Organizer (AnnaKare PRO), including the best natural remedies with you.
The AnnaKare Portable Remedy Organizer & Travel Bag
While many of us would love to bring our remedies with us when we travel, typical toiletry travel bags aren’t the ideal way to securely and safely store them. They are oversized, making room for toothpaste, brushes, and shaving cream, and aren’t made to hold homeopathic remedies.
The AnnaKare Portable Remedy Organizer is made for homeopathic remedies and tissue salts and also fits other one to two once bottles and containers of your indispensable remedies and supplements. You can fill it with all your favorites and never fear that you’ll be caught traveling without them. Plus, you can roll the bag up and it will hold tightly together with the two attached straps.
The handle makes it a breeze to carry it with you or hang it up on a bathroom hook. It comes with 3 rows of 4 pockets making it ideal for storing 12 one-ounce spray or dropper bottles and also capable of fitting several two-ounce bottles.
The cotton duck fabric adds to its durability and aligns with AnnaKare’s mission to be good for the planet, as does the packaging of each product you receive from our store. Plus, all of our remedies come in recyclable bottles and are made from clean and traceable ingredients.

6 Common Travel Emergencies
Sometimes, with the excitement of a trip, we don’t plan ahead for how we’ll handle a sudden sickness or injury. And if you’re traveling somewhere foreign, language and cultural barriers can make finding your preferred remedies challenging.
Below are common travel emergencies that often come without warning and the helpful natural remedies that matter most when you are away from home.
1. Catching a Cold
The common cold is a recurring respiratory infection that is easy to catch when traveling. A runny nose, congestion in your chest, and the exhaustion that come with a cold may ruin your trip and leave you tired and unable to enjoy your destination.
Relieve your cold with homeopathic oral spray Cold Armor, which contains a special blend of herbs and minerals to support your immune system and recovery. With natural ingredients that help alleviate rhinitis, cough, and mucous membrane swelling, you’ll breathe more easily without the risk of nausea or drowsiness.
Even better, start taking Cold Armor three days before your vacation and continue during the first 3 days of your trip for your best defense. Take two squirts three times a day.
If you’re someone who frequently catches a cold every time you travel, you’re not alone. Reasons include different climates, proximity to more germs, and if you’re stressed before your trip this can wreak havoc on your immune system.
2. Fighting Off the Flu and Other Viruses
Fall can be the best time to travel to many places regionally and abroad. The temperatures are dropping, and with fewer travelers on the road, many destinations are becoming less crowded and easier to enjoy. But fall coincides with the beginning of flu season, and many viruses are quicker to catch as more people gather indoors and crispier air allows viruses to spread more easily.
In 2020 when one virus changed the world and how we think about our health and immunity, our homeopaths and naturopaths formulated Virus Defense, a natural remedy to help support you during flu season, winter illnesses, and other viral attacks.
Virus Defense includes homeopathy’s key ingredients to assist you in fighting acute upper and lower respiratory inflammation, harsh body aches, fever, nausea, rashes, and more. Take it at the first sign of symptoms and as a precautionary measure. Take two squirts of Virus Defense four to six times a day for acute discomfort and four to six times a week for overall virus protection before and during your trip.
Having Virus Defense in your homeopathy travel kit is good for your body and your mind as you can rest assured that you have one of the best natural homeopathic remedies by your side.
3. Dealing with Jet Lag, Anxiousness, and Sleeplessness
Traveling to a new place across different time zones may leave you anxious and jet-lagged, making sleep feel like an uphill battle. Fortunately, smart natural products such as Peacefulí and our Liquid Melatonin drops can help you feel relaxed enough to catch up on sleep and find your balance.
Peacefulí is a homeopathic anxiety spray that works to calm your mind and relax your body. It eases muscle tension caused by stress and overexertion from pulling heavy luggage and sitting for extended periods of time.
Liquid Melatonin drops are easier to absorb than tablets or capsules, help you adjust to the new time zone or rhythm, and promote sleep when you have arrived at your destination and want to wind down.
With high-quality natural remedies in your homeopathy travel kit that have been crafted by industry experts, jet lag and sleepless nights will no longer feel insurmountable, and you can transition into vacation mode more quickly and gently.
4. Avoiding Dehydration
Staying hydrated no matter your location is essential, but some climates (particularly hot and humid) may cause you to lose more bodily fluids than normal. Becoming dehydrated while traveling can lead to unwanted constipation and fatigue and lower your immune defenses.
Adding an all-in-one formula of the 12 Schuessler cell salts to your travel kit will help you stay hydrated, keep you regular, and give you the energy to keep going. That’s all thanks to Cellergy, a brilliant remedy that combines the most essential electrolytes in one bottle and is offered as an easy-to-take lactose-free liquid spray by AnnaKare.
And who hasn’t pushed themselves further than usual while on vacation because you are wanting to fully explore your destination?
But with the aid of Cellergy, you’re including key minerals such as Magnesium, Potassium, Calcium, and Phosphate in natural form and healthy absorbable micro doses that will ensure you replenish lost electrolytes, and help you recover from strenuous activities.
If you’d like to know more about the benefits of Cellergy and why you should choose cell salts over sports drinks, you can read more about it in our article, How to Replenish Electrolytes With Cell Salts. Always make sure to keep your water levels balanced for a more enjoyable trip.
5. Recovering from Injuries and Muscle Pain
Although you may be determined to slow your pace and take additional precautions against falls and injuries, hurting a muscle or joint is still one of the most common inconveniences while traveling. Sprains, bruises, and muscle pain may leave you wondering how you’ll manage to keep going.
Add in back or neck pain that can come from long flights, sleeping in a strange bed, or from unaccustomed strenuous activities, and your trip could end before it’s even started.
Add cell salt Ferr Phos and cell salt Mag Phos and don’t leave for a trip without Arnica Relief Cream in your homeopathy travel kit. Ferr Phos helps stem blood flow from cuts, heals bruises, and can help with a speedier recovery from a sprained muscle or joint.
Cell salt Mag Phos is a great option if you suffer from muscle cramps, whether you pushed yourself too hard walking all around the city or let yourself get dehydrated. And Arnica cream is your rescuer for any injury or overexertion.
Put these three remedies in your backpack when you had out for a hike as well as for city sightseeing. You never know what can happen on an excursion to cause a sore muscle or pain. Having your remedies on hand will get you onto the road of recovery that much sooner.
6. Warding Off Allergies
Allergies are common year-round and can cause symptoms and discomfort wherever you go. Stress may cause you to become more sensitive to irritants and insect bites, and different foods may trigger a reaction from the presence of new chemicals in your body.
Use Elderberry Liquid Extract daily to support your immune system and prohibit allergic reactions. Bring our homeopathic oral spray Allergy Escape and use it at the first sign of hypersensitivity to quickly address sneezing, itchy eyes, sinus pressure, and even overreactions to bee stings and insect bites.
Having excellent natural options to avoid and relieve travel emergencies benefits your whole health and can help you get the most out of your trip.
