The app that gets your sleep back on track .

Whether you ’ re airborne for work or for pleasure , jetting over multiple time zones can wreak havoc on your health , especially for frequent travelers . Over the years there ’ ve been plenty of anti-jet lag fads and products , few of which worked , some of which were outright silly . How many times , despite all your efforts , have you arrived at a destination suffering from an undeniable state of mental fog ?
Timeshifter co-founder and CEO Mickey Beyer-Clausen grew up traveling the world with his mother , a flight attendant for Scandinavian Airlines . It ’ s no wonder that years later the tech entrepreneur has teamed up with eminent scientists to create an app that addresses the central dilemma of jet travel — the interruption of the circadian rhythm , which is a person ’ s pattern of sleeping and waking over 24 hours .
