What is the best way to avoid jet lag??? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. Stiffler07 (627)3 years ago

A friend of mine chalks up 100,000 air miles a year and he swears by melatonin, a hormone,released by the pineal gland,that lets the body know what time of the day it is. By taking melatonin for a few days after his flight, he does seem to get his act together with impressive speed. Melatonin can be bought in a local supermarket. Do you have anything you do??? ....(Details)

I have heard of Melatonin. I didn't realize it helped jet lag...Now I know and I can spread the news. My girlfriend travels an awful lot. I will tell her about it. My husband used to travel over seas playing basketball all the time and the time difference was huge in some cases ...too bad we didn't know about melatonin then...thx

I had never heard of using melatonin for this purpose, though I know it does have some properties relating to getting restful sleep.

When I have flown in the past, I have never crossed more than two time zones, so I usually adjust my body's internal clock by going to bed at the same local time I would as if I were at home. For example, if I normally go to bed at 10 p.m., I would wait until 10 p.m. local time to go to bed, even if that is a couple of hours before or after my normal time zone. By the next morning, I am usually adjusted to the new time zone.

Yes, it does take a little bit to adjust from different time zones. Ty 4/answer.

Get plenty of sleep before you leave.
Don't drink too much alcohol.
Eat well-balanced meals.
Avoid overeating.
Exercise as much as you can during your trip.
Use sleep medicines only for a few days.
Get used to the new time zone by following the local mealtime or bedtime schedules.
