This story just popped into my inbox, which suggests that it may be easier to reset your body clock when food is scarce. In other words, fasting before a long flight might help reduce the amount of jet lag you feel. This data is derived from animal experiments and has not yet been validated on humans but it’s worth thinking about.

If nothing else it just gives one more excuse to avoid eating dodgy airline food…

    Don’t bother staying hungry. I am a frequent traveller and I don’t get Jetlag. I carry a product called Biodisc. Its similar to the one that Lauda Air and 40% of the Qantas staff carry. Don’t believe me. Go to http://www.biodisc.com.au and click on Video FAQ’s. Try it out yourself.
