A member asked:
Why west jet lag causes early awakerning? can't this be corrected by melatonin like when flying east?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies for many: There are all kinds of supposed remedies for jet lag, and what works for one person may not work for another. Some people even try and keep their same schedule regardless of the time change. Melatonin has had some positive effects, but most of the time, it is a trail and error experience.
