At times it can brutally affect travelers in the day causing trauma and loss of sleep many learn to cope with it but others can be mentally injured for a few weeks.

According to recent studies, for each hour difference, it takes the body about a day to adjust. For instance, a trip across the US is a 3-zone difference, and will take about 3 days for the body's inner clock to re-set to the new time zone.

Factors affecting how well an individual recovers include how well-rested the person was before traveling, youth, individual temperament, and general health.

It is helpful to make a conscious effort to adjust sleep to local time:
  • Planning a light schedule the first day or two to allow for tiredness.
  • Taking an afternoon nap (if traveling eastward) will help to stay awake until a more locally-appropriate bedtime the first evening.
  • Taking B-complex vitamins in the morning (local time) and a melatonin pill at bedtime (local time) may also help reset your inner clock.
