Supplements to Take On-the-Go
Don't Let Travel Derail Your Health Goals This Winter
Whether you're heading off on a ski trip, escaping to tropical weather, or just travelling interstate to see family — winter travel can be tough on your body. Changing climates, disrupted sleep, jet lag, shared germs, and limited food options all put pressure on your immune system and recovery.
At Nutrition Capital, we’re all about making your health goals travel-friendly. Here’s our go-to winter travel health kit to help you stay energised, supported, and feeling your best — no matter where you’re flying.

-
Vitamin C + Zinc for daily defence
