Recover Faster From Jet Lag

Nothing's worse than arriving in Europe for a vacation only to spend the first three days feeling like you've been hit by a truck as you try to recover from jet lag. To reset your internal clock more quickly, follow this advice:
 

• Allow a day for every time zone you've passed through to fully recover from your jet lag.
  
   
• If you're flying east, book an early flight. If you're flying west, however, book a later flight.
  
   
• Begin preparing for time changes a few days before your departure by getting up a half hour to an hour earlier or by going to bed later (depending on where you're heading).
  
   
• When you get on the plane, immediately adjust your watch to the time of your destination. If it's nighttime, try to sleep.
  
   
• Use sunlight to reset your clock. After flying west, spend a few hours outdoors in the afternoon; after heading east, take a half-hour walk outside in the morning.
  
   
• Consider taking melatonin when you get on the plane to help you sleep, and then again after arrival when it's time for bed to help reset your body clock.
