    But firstly, what causes jet lag?

    But firstly, what causes jet lag?
  • Our bodies are naturally designed to carry out certain tasks, such as eating and sleeping, throughout a 24-hour period. These built-in routines are referred to as circadian rhythms.

    But moving across different time zones can mess up with these routines, leading to extreme fatigue, indigestion, infrequent bowel movements, memory problems, and concentration issues, among other symptoms. This is known as jet lag.

    Cherries and Goji berries to the rescue against jet lag
  • Cherries: Cherries are one of the only natural sources of the hormone melatonin, which is known to help reset your body's clock. So, pop some into your mouth when you're traveling.

    Goji berries: Snack on a couple of Goji berries before you hit the bed, as they can help enhance the quality of your sleep, which is essential if you want to defeat jet-lag.

    Bananas and Ginger will help you get over jet lag
  • Banana: Reach for the good-old banana, as it contains essential electrolytes (read potassium and magnesium), and natural sugars, that can give you an instant energy boost, and also enhance your sleep quality.

    Ginger: When you are jet-lagged, try sipping some ginger tea, as it will help stimulate gastric motility and mitigate nausea. This way, it will help calm down your stomach, and improve digestion.
