HEALTH
Jet Lag Can Affect Sleep
For people that travel a lot, it is
extremely important to be fresh, productive and razor sharp, however
jet lag can affect your sleep. While you can’t avoid jet lag, you
can reduce the effects of traveling from one time zone to another.
Here are some tips.
Jet lag is when your body needs to reset its clock because you are
not adjusted to the new time zone. For instance, if you fly from New
York to London, you will need to speed up your internal circadian
clock by five hours. If you fly from New York to California, you
will need to turn back your clock 3 hours. These hours can affect
your sleep habits tremendously.
Most health professionals state that for every hour in time
difference give yourself a day to adjust. For instance from a flight
from NY to LA it should take your body 3 days to adjust. Before the
flight you should sleep normally and don’t be overly concerned about
napping on the plane. A good diet is also important, you do not need
to eat excessively on the plane or before your departure, this can
make jet lag worse. However drink plenty of water and skip the
alcohol and stimulants such as caffeine.
If you will only be in an area for one or two days, try to keep your
same sleep schedule. For only a few days your body will not notice
the difference. If you are planning on flying in the near future,
take a look at the above tips on how jet lag can affect your sleep.
