However, when you are not with the group, we recommend being careful with food and drink, definitely consuming bottled water, avoiding ice, milk, and dairy products, consuming meat and fish products that you are sure are well cooked, and for fruit, eating fruits with peel that can be removed such as bananas and pineapples.
