Jet Lag
Traveling to Europe from East coast USA
Get a good night rest prior to departure
In flight drink enough fluids, and wear loose clothes to make it easier to fall
asleep. Take sleeping pill if you can not sleep. (Sonata (Zalpelon) is a good
choice. Make certain that there is 4 hr of flight time remaining.)
Once in Europe, avoid bright light in morning till 7 AM. Use dark glasses if
needed. Take abundant sunlight or bright light in the afternoon and evening.
Take Melatonin 3 mgs at about 8 PM. Take short naps (30 - 60 minutes) if needed.
