Magnesium & Sleep - Why are you sleeping poorly?

Who is this guide for?

• People with insomnia
• # Jet lag
• ## What is it?
• Jet lag is a temporary sleep disorder that occurs when travelling across multiple time zones. The body's internal clock (circadian rhythm) becomes desynchronised with the local time at the destination, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, insomnia, difficulty concentrating and digestive problems.
• ## How to minimise its effects?
• ### 1. Adjust your sleep schedule before travelling
• A few days before the trip, start adjusting your sleep schedule to the time zone of your destination. For example, if you are travelling east, try going to bed and waking up earlier. If you are travelling west, try going to bed and waking up later.
• ### 2. Stay hydrated
• Drink plenty of water before, during and after your flight. Dehydration can worsen jet lag symptoms. Avoid alcohol and excessive caffeine, as they can interfere with sleep.
• ### 3. Adjust to the new time zone upon arrival
• As soon as you arrive at your destination, try to adapt to the local time. Go to bed and wake up according to the local schedule. Sunlight exposure can help regulate your circadian rhythm, so spend time outdoors during the day.
• ### 4. Melatonin
• Melatonin is a hormone that helps regulate sleep. Taking a melatonin supplement can help reduce jet lag symptoms, especially when travelling east. Consult a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate dosage and timing.
• ### 5. Plan your meals
• Eating at the right times can help your body adjust to the new time zone. Try to eat your meals at the same times as local residents to help regulate your internal clock.
• Difficulty falling asleep
• Improve sleep quality
