Cruising down under (San Diego Union-Tribune)
Travelers should be encouraged to adjust to local times for eating and sleeping as soon as they arrive.

Studies in travelers have shown small but inconsistent reductions in jet lag symptoms with use of melatonin.

Surfing around the globe, one couch at a time (The Daily Free Press)

Cruising down under (San Diego Union-Tribune)
Food-borne illness The risk of traveler's diarrhea in developing countries can be as high as 60%. Contaminated foods not adequately prepared are a common cause of intestinal infections. To help prevent such illnesses, travelers should be encouraged to thoroughly clean and cook all vegetables and meats. Food should be served hot. Peeled fruits are generally safe. However, milk and milk products (eg, cheese, ice cream) that are not pasteurized, as well as cold buffets, salads, and chilled desserts, should be avoided. Consumption of seafood, beef, pork, or sausage that is raw, undercooked, smoked, pickled, or salted can lead to trichinosis or tapeworm infection. Game fish from tropical waters also may cause ciguatera poisoning. Travelers should avoid buying food from street vendors and eating in establishments that have dirty rest rooms.
