Is Melatonin An Effective Treatment For Jet Lag?

Abstract: 11 pages in length. Jet lag has been traced to a disruption of sleep patterns, and many who either research the effects or experience them agree that the most effective treatment centers on treating sleep disruption. The manner of treatment is controversial, however. There are proprietary sleep-inducing drugs and there is naturally-occurring melatonin. Much of the medical community disdains the use of any natural product, but all evidence points to melatonin as being the best possible treatment for jet lag. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
