How to Fight Jet Lag?

Jet lag, also called 'jet lag disorder', is a temporary sleep problem that can affect anyone speeding through multiple time zones.

The body has its own internal clock, or circadian rhythms, that tells it when to stay awake and when to sleep.

Jet lag occurs because your body's clock is still in sync with your original time zone, rather than the time zone you traveled to.

The more time zones you have crossed, the more likely you are to experience jet lag.

Jet lag can lead to daytime fatigue, malaise, trouble staying alert, and gastrointestinal problems.

Jet lag is temporary, but it can significantly reduce the comfort of your vacation or business trip.

Fortunately, there are steps you can take to help prevent or minimize jet lag.
