How To Overcome Jetlag

Jet lag is caused by disruption of your "body clock". This clock is designed for a regular rythm of daylight and darkness. It is thrown out of "sync" when it experiences daylight and darkness at the "wrong" times in a new time zone.

There is no quick fix for the symptoms of jet lag, but there are some general remedies:

-spend time outside during daylight hours to enlighten your body clock
-sleep on local time
-try to do what the locals do: their food preference, meal times, recreational activities etc.
-schedule activities when you have maximum energy, i.e. in the mornings after flying west.
