Viagra (yes, THAT Viagra) could help you fight jetlag. It will only work, though, if you fly from west to east.
At least, it's what the research done by scientists in Buenos Aires says. It was even published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
They tested hamsters by switching their lights early and giving them Viagra. Those who were given Viagra where faster on their exercise wheels than those who had to go without.
Now... curious how it works on humans?
Max Davidson of the Telegraph was brave enough to try it out himself. After paying £55, getting strange looks from the pharmacy clerks and an involuntary feeling of lust, it didn't really work the way it should work for it to be considered a cure for jetlag.
Back to the labs, boys!
