It occurs when the <a href=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/sleep\/jet-lag-syndrome-how-it-affects-your-sleep\/\">body&#8217;s internal clock<\/a> is out of sync with cues from a new time zone. When you travel internationally, your time zone changes. As a result, you experience disturbed sleep or sleepless nights! This is called jet lag <a href=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/sleep\/jet-lag-syndrome-how-it-affects-your-sleep\/\">syndrome<\/a>. You may also experience low energy levels or lethargy when facing jet lag. Moreover, jet lag syndrome can also occur without change of timezone. It&rsquo;s possible that if you change your activity and sleep schedule, your sleep-wake cycle is compromised. It&rsquo;s important to know ways to beat it and jet lag treatment is very important!<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_53 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-662e8698a5ccd\"><span class=\"\"><span style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-662e8698a5ccd\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/sleep\/jet-lag-treatment-4-ways-to-beat-jet-lag\/#How_to_identify_it\" title=\"\nHow to identify it? \n\">\nHow to identify it? \n<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/sleep\/jet-lag-treatment-4-ways-to-beat-jet-lag\/#Jet_lag_treatment_and_prevention\" title=\"\nJet lag treatment and prevention \n\">\nJet lag treatment and prevention \n<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-identify-it\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_identify_it\"><\/span>\n<strong>How to identify it?<\/strong><br>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \">You are likely to be suffering from jet lag if you&rsquo;re travelling internationally. Once in the new time zone or country, you may find yourself unable to sleep on the first few nights or feeling very tired. If so, it probably is jet lag and you need to find ways to beat it. Jet lag treatment and prevention are extremely important!&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading wp-block-heading\" id=\"jet-lag-treatment-and-prevention\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jet_lag_treatment_and_prevention\"><\/span>\n<strong>Jet lag treatment and prevention<\/strong><br>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<ol style=\"\" class=\"wp-block-list \">\n<li><strong>Good sleep habits<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Exercise &amp; light stretching<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Eat the right food<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Stay hydrated<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><strong>Plan your sleep timings. <\/strong>A simple jet lag treatment or prevention measure is to follow good sleep habits. This applies more when you&rsquo;re travelling. Look at your flight timings, time difference and when you&rsquo;ll be able to sleep once you reach your destination. Basis that, try and get just enough sleep on the flight. If you land in the morning, you&rsquo;ll be well rested and ready to enjoy. If you land closer to the night, you will be able to fall asleep that night and counter jet lag.<br><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Sleep_1200-x-628-1024x536.png\" alt=\"Jet lag treatment is easy - improve sleep habits with Evolve!\" class=\"wp-image-2709\" width=\"512\" height=\"268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Sleep_1200-x-628-1024x536.png 1024w, https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Sleep_1200-x-628-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Sleep_1200-x-628-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Sleep_1200-x-628-720x377.png 720w, https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Sleep_1200-x-628.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/evolveinc.app.link\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download now<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><strong>Exercise and light stretching. <\/strong>Plane travel is difficult, more so when it&rsquo;s international. The duration is long, the wait is plenty and eventually the thrill and adrenaline wears off. Your journey can get tiring and your energy levels are low by the time you reach. Moreover, jet lag can make it worse. Hence, it&rsquo;s important to do some light stretching when you&rsquo;re on the plane and travelling or once you reach. Light exercise first thing in the morning could also help your body loosen up and feel better. Plus, exercise directly helps you get better sleep, so it&rsquo;s a win-win.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><strong>Eat the right food. <\/strong>Eat <a href=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/sleep\/6-foods-for-good-sleep-you-should-eat-at-night\/\">healthy and nutritious food<\/a> when you&rsquo;re travelling. Junk food on the plane will make it worse for your system to fall asleep. A simple jet lag treatment measure is to snack on nuts instead of chips, drink milk rather than coffee and eat light food so your body isn&rsquo;t too active and can sleep easily. Melatonin rich food can cure jet lag as well. So improve your food habits once you reach and while you&rsquo;re on the plane. In case you&rsquo;re experiencing jet lag without travelling, eating good food is even more important.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pause-and-recharge-519x1024.png\" alt=\"Manage energy and ease jet lag!\" class=\"wp-image-2845\" width=\"260\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pause-and-recharge-519x1024.png 519w, https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pause-and-recharge-152x300.png 152w, https:\/\/evolveinc.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pause-and-recharge.png 549w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px\" \/><figcaption><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/evolveinc.app.link\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download now<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph \"><strong>Stay hydrated.<\/strong> Drink plenty of water during the flight, and avoid alcohol and caffeine, to minimize dehydration.
