In her book, The Globetrotter’s Get-Gorgeous Guide, professional travel journalist Debbi Kickham includes two Boiron products – Oscillococcinum and the Jet Lag Relief Pack – in her line-up of travel essentials. Check out the excerpts below.
In the chapter titled “Check-In Strategies,” Debbi lists Oscillococcinum as one of the top 10 items to have in your medicine bag.
I swear by this homeopathic medicine [Oscillococcinum], and I buy it in bulk when I’m in France. In fact, in France, where Oscillo has been around for more than 65 years, it is the best-selling over-the-counter product in the cough/cold/flu category and a top-selling brand in pharmacies. Of course, you can also buy Oscillo in the United States. It won’t interact with other medications, and it is not contraindicated with pre-existing conditions. As evidenced by four clinical studies, Oscillo helps to reduce the duration and severity of flu-like symptoms. “It is an industry secret found on many production sets in Hollywood,” says Chris Gilbert, M.D., a general practitioner in Torrance, Calif.
And in the chapter titled “Gorgeous Getaways,” Debbi believes that Boiron’s Jet Lag Relief Pack is a must-have for all traveling women.
For those who prefer a homeopathic medicine, Boiron (who makes the much-beloved Oscillococcinum for flu-like symptoms) has its own proprietary Jet Lag CareKit. The kit’s three tubes contain Nux vomica for drowsiness, Cocculus indicus for sleep pattern disturbance, and Arnica montana for stiffness and muscle pain. Since you just dissolve the pellets under your tongue, and they don’t require water, they’re ideal for travel.
