Jet Lag and Melatonin
"Several human trials suggest that melatonin taken by mouth, started on the day of travel (close to the
target bedtime at the destination) and continued for several days, reduces the number of days required
to establish a normal sleep pattern, diminishes the time it takes to fall asleep ("sleep latency"),
improves alertness, and reduces daytime fatigue.
"Overall, the scientific evidence does suggest benefits of melatonin in up to half of
people who take it for jet-lag. More trials are needed to confirm these findings, to determine optimal
dosing, and to evaluate use in combination with prescription sleep aids."
There is "strong scientific evidence for this use."

Recommendations Compared
| Source | Dosage | Timing |
| U.S. National Institutes of Health |
Try taking 1 - 3 milligrams of melatonin. |
Several hours before bedtime for several days once you arrive at your destination. |
| Mayo Clinic |
Small doses — as little as 1/3 milligram — seem just as effective as doses of 5 milligrams or higher. Some scientists think that higher doses actually overload the body, causing the melatonin to become ineffective. |
30 minutes before you plan to sleep or ask your doctor about the proper timing. |
| Reader's Digest |
Consider taking melatonin when you get on the plane to help you sleep, and then again after arrival when it's time for bed to help reset your body clock. |
(not mentioned) |
Get a bottle of 300 mcg (0.3 mg) melatonin to get you asleep,
a bottle of 1.5 mg sustained release melatonin to keep you asleep,
plus a padded, silken, light-weight sleep mask to create your own personal nighttime.
