Is it true that melatonin reduces jet lag symptoms in travelers crossing several time zones?
Yes. A meta-analysis of 11 randomized trials and a Cochrane review both conclude that oral melatonin reduces or prevents jet lag symptoms in travelers crossing multiple time zones. Additional clinical references list timed melatonin as a jet lag treatment, though they do not quantify its effect.
