Jet Lag Calculator
Jet lag is a temporary sleep disorder caused by rapid travel across multiple time zones, disrupting the body's circadian rhythm. Symptoms include fatigue, insomnia, and difficulty concentrating, which can significantly impact travel experiences. This online jet lag calculator aim to mitigate these effects by providing personalized schedules for light exposure, sleep, and darkness, to help the body adjust to the new time zone. Light exposure is a key factor, as it influences the circadian clock, with bright light signaling wakefulness and darkness promoting sleep.
Please note that the maximum time difference is +/- 12 hours in the jet lag calculator.
Example: if you have a -15 hours time difference, you need to enter +9 hours (24-15=9)
