jet lag management

This is a big issue for me, now that I travel to the U.S. a couple of times per year to give lectures, since 3-week recovery times are normal for me upon returning to Egypt.

The obvious point is that you have to try to force yourself to sleep on a normal schedule as much as possible.

I’ve also found that jet lag is a double-dip phenomenon. The first time you think you’ve beaten it, you haven’t. It rises from the dead once. Beat it a second time, and you’re generally cured.
