Argonne Anti-Jet-Lag Diet

Article Type: Food facts From: Nutrition & Food Science, Volume 39, Issue 5.

As the summer travel season begins, many vacation and business travellers will beat jet lag with the Anti-Jet-Lag Diet developed at the US Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory. A study published in 2002 in the medical journal Military Medicine found that travellers who use the Argonne Anti-Jet-Lag Diet are seven times less likely to experience jet lag when travelling west and 16 times less likely when travelling east. A copy of the study is online at AntiJetLagDiet.com. “Anyone traveling across three or more time zones can use the Argonne Anti-Jet-Lag Diet to eliminate or reduce jet lag”, said Argonne's Dave Baurac. “The Argonne Anti-Jet-Lag Diet maintains our healthy cellular rhythms by using the same natural time cues that nature uses, such as meal contents and timing, light and dark cycles and daily activity cycles”.

Jet lag symptoms include feelings of irritability, insomnia, indigestion and general disorientation that occur when the body's inner clock is out of step with environmental time cues like meal times, sunrise and sunset, and daily cycles of rest and activity.

Invented by Charles Ehret, an Argonne biologist whose career was devoted to the study of daily biological rhythms in a variety of organisms from paramecia to mammals, the Anti-Jet-Lag Diet has helped hundreds of thousands of travellers avoid jet lag.
