Stomach problems, North Korea

Displayed:   times.

Many travellers have stomach problems. This usually is not caused by the food quality, but by the way of cooking, the use of oils etc. In most cases you will cure within a few days. You might take some medicine (i.e. imodium and/or salt and minerals powder (ORS). Beware that the water used in cooking might not always be clean. We advise against drinking from taps or to eat un-cooked food.
