How come everyone gets sick if the go to India ?

[โ€“] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Really too many reasons to list

If you're from a country that sanitizes water, you're going to get the shits from water in a place that doesnt. Because your body isn't used to fighting all that stuff off on a daily basis.

But there's also the insane amounts of air pollution in India, again, it's bad for everyone, but especially people whose bodies aren't used to it.

Very relevant.

Basically, it's a combination of new foods and exposure to new bacteria.

Same reason you get sick going anywhere, the water.
