Keyword: jet lag (時差ボケ)According to the latest research carried out by Harvard university, you can reduce the effects of jet lag by avoiding food. Our body may have two ‘body’ clocks, where one is determined by time and the other by how hungry we are.
"If, for example, you are travelling from the US to Japan, you are forced to adjust to an 11-hour time difference. Because the body's biological clock can only shift a small amount each day, it takes the average person about a week to adjust to the new time zone. And, by then, it's often time to turn around and come home. A period of fasting with no food at all for about 16 hours is enough to engage this new clock. So, in this case, simply avoiding any food on the plane, and then eating as soon as you land, should help you to adjust and avoid some of the uncomfortable feelings of jet lag."
