Eat This to Prevent Jet Lag

Researchers from Northwestern University say the quickest way to recalibrate your internal clock is to immediately sync up to the regular meal times in your new time zone. 

Some people have personal “hacks” to help deal with jet lag, and most of them involve sleep patterns. But it may have more to do with what you eat.  Researchers from Northwestern University say the quickest way to recalibrate your internal clocks is to immediately sync up to the regular meal times in your new time zone.  So if you just got off a long flight but it’s morning where you landed, enjoy a big breakfast, even if you’ve been on the go for almost a full day.  The researchers say jet lag isn’t just about a disruption in your internal clock.  Your body has multiple clocks, and jet lag happens when they have conflicting time cues.
