Anna wanted to warn women in the group concerning her experience in San Cristobal. She emphasized that women should not be out alone, as that will invite unwanted comments from young men and sometimes unwanted touching. She said that she was followed every time she went out alone. Anna also noted that precautions differ for different parts of the city. For example, tight pants or a shortish skirt would be inappropriate for the market.
Anna also suggested special care in social situations with local residents. Even aquaintances may become persistent in unwanted attentions. Also, drugs are often offered in these situations and should be refused. On the other hand, in social situations it is expected that food will be shared.
On other issues, Anna noted that if you are not awarded sufficient time on your tourist visa when you enter, you can go to an immigration office in San Cristobal or Tuxtla Gutierrez and have it extended. But do it in time, as the bureacratic necessities may take a day of scurrying around.
For disinfecting food and as a potential prophylactic against internal infection, Anna suggests nutribiotic drops, from grapefruit seeds, an organic antibiotic.

just an FYI:
another strong natural antibiotic is Wild Oregano Oil: it is also anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anit-parasitic. For both external (topical) and internal (ingensted)application.
But i guess if you are already there, it might be hard to come by. if desperate, you can probably order it on the internet.
This is the highest quality brand:
