Eating to Beat Jet Lag

The Energy Department's Argonne National Laboratory is trying to make a few bucks off of an anti-jet-lag diet developed by biologists at the facility two decades ago. Argonne has licensed software it developed to AntiJetLagDiet.com, allowing users (for a fee of $10.95 one way or $16.95 round-trip) to put together an individual diet to defeat the effects of jet lag on trips across three or more time zones. Argonne officials say hundreds of thousands of travelers have used the diet in the past 20 years, including President Reagan and federal travelers from the Army, Navy, Secret Service, Central Intelligence Agency and Federal Reserve System.
