If you’ve ever crossed time zones, no doubt you’ve probably experienced these decades old symptoms of jet lag at some point:

Fatigue, irritability, nausea, anxiety, dehydration, constipation, diarrhea, headache, sweating, temporary memory loss….am I missing any?!.

Finally, beating the inevitable jet lag is possible and each crucial step on how to fight it has been detailed in The Cure for Jet Lag.

Authored by Lynne W. Scanlon and Charles F. Ehret, Ph.D, this book demystifies jet lag and scientifically breaks down its symptoms with various ways of treating them.

The first two chapters cover symptoms of jet lag such as fatigue and their expected duration and effects on the body.

Subsequent chapters are dedicated to explaining the different time zones, how they impact the body, and how to trick the body into naturally adjusting without incident.

The Cure’s three step program outlines how to overcame jet lag using specific foods, tea, coffee, low/high calorie meals, physical/mental activity, light/dark settings, and how to use them preflight, inflight, and postflight.

If you’re ready to kick jet lag for good, you may want to grab a copy.

    Lola, thanks for the kind review of our book, The Cure for Jet Lag. Actually, the book is not being sold online at B&N or AMAZON, nor in bookstores. (The $20 copy for sale on AMAZON is, no doubt, one of a handful of unproofred editions that were sent to book critics.) The book can ONLY be found at ” target=”_blank”>http://www.thecureforjetlag.com. By the way, I have new blog associated with that site. Very different from yours. I'm getting quite a few sage comments on the latest posting: Plane Crashes . . . and The Bridge of San Luis Rey. Thanks again for the mention of my book!
