When we go on holiday, we often want to maintain our daily routine as much as possible, including our nutritional supplements. But what are the rules for taking supplements on a trip? Are you allowed to take them to another country? In this blog we will delve deeper into this question.

To answer your question straight away. Yes, in principle taking nutritional supplements on holiday is no problem at all.
You can safely take vitamin and mineral supplements with you.
In some countries, there are sometimes stricter rules about pre-workout or fatburn supplements. Substances that are in these are considered doping in some places and CBD oil is also not allowed in every country, for example. These are substances that are not in Ovabalance supplements.

Taking food supplements with you within and outside the EU.
When you travel within the EU by car or plane, this is no problem and you can safely take your supplements with you.
General nutritional supplements are therefore no problem, but outside the EU the rules regarding CBD oil or pre-workout supplements are sometimes different.
An example of a country with strict rules for food supplements is Singapore. Other countries, such as the United States, allow many supplements.
Are you unsure whether your supplements are permitted in the country where you are going on holiday? Then you can always ask the customs of the country where you are going on holiday what the regulations are.
Is there a maximum amount of vitamins you can take on a plane?
When traveling to and from abroad, there is often a limit to the amount of a product that you can take with you. However, there is no limit set for supplements, so you can in principle take as many vitamins as you want. Now I would not take a huge number of jars of 1 particular product, because then it could be seen as trade.
How do I take my supplements on holiday?
To avoid any risk, take your supplements with you in their original packaging when you travel by plane. At least with powder supplements like Myo inositol . Then it is immediately clear what the white powder is ;)
Because with the original packaging you can easily show what is inside in case of inspection. If necessary, make sure you have your purchase confirmation with you or at least have it in your email.
If you travel by car, I recommend putting your supplements in a handy XL pill box .
We have specially designed a handy small package of the DCI supplement to take on holiday, which will save you space in your suitcase.
Can I take supplements in my hand luggage?
Supplements in capsule, powder or tablet form can be taken in your hand luggage without a maximum quantity limit. Liquid supplements may contain a maximum of 100 milliliters.
Why should I take supplements on holiday?
When you are doing well with taking nutritional supplements, you do not want to interrupt this for a long time. Because on holiday your diet often looks different (read: a little less healthy, more sweet and more alcohol). And you may also exercise less fanatically, it is wise to continue to supplement your vitamins and minerals.
In conclusion, we can say that taking food supplements on holiday is in principle not a problem as long as you inform yourself about the rules in the country of destination and keep the packaging or take a picture of it. That way you can enjoy your holiday without worries and continue your daily routine.
