Beware of some food. I usually eat most local food, even street food carts, yes even in India (as long as it looks really cooked well) However in Peru we ate the alpaca ....DO NOT EAT THE ALPACA, even if well cooked. They have some weird parasite that does not die when cooked. Water is a danger everywhere. Until you have acclimated to water it will do a number on your tummy. (NEVER drink any tap water in India!!!!!! EVER) That said only twice have I been slammed by water. Yes India , it was an accident, and Spain (bathroom tap, didn't want to pay for a bottle in small town...bad move) After a time in most cities I was good to drink, strangely Panama small towns had good water everywhere (spent 2 months traveling there.)
