    Beat the lag 

    For anyone planning to travel to Europe -- or further -- this summer, there's help to combat the insidious effects of jet lag: The Anti-Jet Lag Diet, created by Chicago's Argonne National Laboratory, and tested on National Guard soldiers flying across 9 time zones. The diet takes a few days, alternating high-protein and high-carb meals, with some fasting and meal manipulation aboard the plane (get up and walk around and talk after 1:30 on a flight to Paris, for example. Let's hope if you do this your flight companions aren't trying to sleep...). But they say it will bring your body clock into line with the time zone you're going to. For a fee, the site will calculate your diet for you.
