Herbal Remedies for Jet Lag

Jet lag is a set of symptoms that can occur after a long jet flight across several time zones, such as light-headedness, dizziness, nausea, depression, and fatigue. The symptoms are related to the disruption of the body's internal levels and rhythms.

Helpful herbs include adaptogens, and antidepressive, hormone-balancing herbs. Eat lightly during long flights and drink plenty of water.
