Is it Possible to Prevent Jet Lag?

Now a days, travelling by air has nearly become a daily habit. With professionals travelling more and more, and further and further away with less and less time spent in each destination, jet lag has become a corporate issue. How? Because it decreases productivity, increases frustration and simple mistakes that could have been avoided.
