## Prompt

```text
Help me plan how to stay healthy on an upcoming trip.

**Destination and dates:** [WHERE, HOW LONG]
**Type of trip:** [e.g. "work conference", "backpacking", "family visit", "long-haul flight"]
**Time zone change:** [HOURS]
**Health needs:** [e.g. "daily medications", "food allergy", "pregnant", "mobility limits"]
**What usually goes wrong for me when traveling:** [e.g. "terrible sleep", "eat badly", "get sick"]

Give me:
1. A pre-trip checklist: medications (enough plus extra, in original containers, a copy of prescriptions), travel health insurance, whether I should see a doctor or travel clinic about vaccines or health advice for my destination, and my emergency contacts.
2. A travel health kit list tailored to my trip.
3. A jet lag plan based on my direction and time change: sleep, light, meals, and caffeine for the days before, during, and after travel.
4. Long flight or drive tips: moving regularly, hydration.
5. Food and water safety basics for my destination type, framed as things to check with official travel health guidance.
6. A simple routine for movement and eating well while away.

Don't state country-specific vaccine or entry requirements as fact - tell me to check official government travel health sources. Note how to reach emergency services where I'm going.
