Submission + - Using Viagra to combat jet-lag

SpeedyGonz writes: A research team from the Quilmes National University in Argentina has found that a light to moderate dose of Viagra helps recover from jet lag a 50% faster. According to reuters, a group of male hamsters were subjected to changing lighting patterns to simulate the effect known as jet-lag, then a portion of them received the drug. Viagra interferes with an enzyme that lowers levels of a naturally occurring compound that plays a role in the regulation of the circadian cycle, the body's internal clock, the researchers said.
