A crucial item in my “won’t leave home without” kit. These electrolyte drink tablets are made for athletes but I find them indispensable for my most un-athletic moments: doing nothing but melting in the hotter points of Thailand’s climate. I drink one on the plane in a bid to stay hydrated and avoid jet-lag, and then one per day in Thailand to make sure all my salty-electrolyte-y stuff stays in check in Thai heat. Bonus: Add one to a hangover and be … not quite amazed, but certainly grateful.
