FARMINGTON, Conn., Dec. 22, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Immuron Limited: The latest travel forecast released this week by AAA, projects that 103 million Americans will travel during the December 23, 2016 – January 2, 2017 Holiday Season. Many of those travelers will become ill, or experience intestinal discomfort, from the food they eat along the way.
While food-borne, E. coli-based illnesses are certainly of concern during international travel, last year’s largest E. coli outbreak was actually in the United States - at several Chipotle’s restaurants. So it’s important to be prepared to minimize the risk of food/water-borne illness wherever you are traveling, both domestically and abroad.
Travelan is a supplement that was developed by Australian bio-pharmaceutical company, Immuron Ltd., to help protect your intestinal track against the 13 most commonly occurring strains of E. coli*. Popular in its native Australia for the past 10 years, and in Canada for the past three years, Travelan is now available in the United States on CVS.com and in select CVS/pharmacy stores, on Amazon.com, at Passport Health clinics and other travel medical providers.
