One important hormone that helps regulate body rhythms is melatonin. Melatonin is produced by the pineal body in the brain. Some research has shown that taking melatonin supplements helps reset body rhythms. I've decided to give melatonin a try at fighting jet lag.
I recently purchased a bottle of 1 mg tablets of melatonin ($5.00/bottle). I plan to take 1 tablet about 30 minutes before I go to sleep after my arrival in India. According to research studies, melatonin will not prevent jet lag, but it may speed up recovery from traveling across time zones.
