Jet Lag: What causes it and what are the symptoms?
Jet lag, also known as circadian rhythm disruption or desynchronization, occurs when people travel quickly across time zones or when they have irregular sleep patterns, for example due to working shifts.
Your internal clock helps your body understand what time of day it is and regulate its functions, such as temperature, blood pressure, sleep, food intake, and metabolism.
When the actual time of day does not match your internal clock, your system becomes confused and a set of symptoms appears, including a general feeling of fatigue, weakness, confusion, mood swings, restless sleep, gastrointestinal problems, and stomach disturbances, which may last for several days.
