What I'm packing for summer travel to beat jet lag, fix tummy problems and stay healthy
Got the travel bug this summer? Just make sure you don't pick up any other bugs when you hit the road. No matter where I go on vacation, I've always taken a fully-stocked mini medicine bag with the obvious essentials: painkillers, antacids, Band-aids, Lactaid and a little something for nausea. But that medicine bag has grown a bit in recent years — especially since I've become The Post's wellness editor. Now it includes a bunch of other things you might not think to pack, and they've made a massive difference in how I feel and function when I'm away from home. To fall asleep and beat jet lag I just got back from Hawaii, and between the 10.5-hour flight from New York and the 6-hour time difference, I knew the jet lag would be a beach — if you know what I mean. A big reason we sleep so poorly while traveling is that our circadian rhythms get messed up from time differences. Melatonin can help fix this. That's because your body naturally produces melatonin in response to darkness at night, getting you ready for sleep. It usually happens on a pretty regular schedule, so when it gets out of whack when you take red-eyes or switch time zones, you can nudge it in the right direction with a supplement. One of my favorites right now is Kourtney Kardashian's Lemme Sleep, a gummy with a yummy berry flavor that blends melatonin with L-theanine and magnesium — a key ingredient in the viral 'sleepy girl mocktail.' I also love the Make Time for Beauty Sleep gummy, which has that special trio of melatonin, magnesium, and L-theanine too — plus biotin for skin, hair and nail health. To stay hydrated I used to get super sick from heat exhaustion and dehydration, so years ago when I went to Cambodia, I knew I needed to figure out a way to not die in the 100-degree heat. At the time, Pedialyte was one of the only brands making travel-size electrolytes. Now there are a ton of great brands to choose from. I'm currently loving Thorne (I'm partial to the mango limeade in the variety pack), FlavCity (pineapple coconut is my fave) and Groove (strawberry kiwi for the win). I keep one in my purse so I can pour it into a water bottle if it's hot out, but they're also great for chugging after a night of cocktails so you wake up without a hangover. They key is to get those electrolytes in before you start feeling sick. To get my tummy straight Never had tummy problems while traveling? I don't believe you. Even if you're really good about not overeating — and knowing which countries where you can't drink the water — sometimes, things get stuck. Or let loose. Or whatever other euphemism you prefer. So here's a tip if you're constipated: Pack a fiber supplement. I've been using BelliWelli because they come in handy little travel-size packets in tasty flavors like watermelon and strawberry lemonade (and the branding's super cute). Don't go crazy, though — that new 'fibermaxxing' trend has some downsides, as we recently reported. To fight infections and stay healthy overall Travel really presents the perfect recipe for illness — you're probably not sleeping enough, you're eating new things, and you're exposed to lots of people carrying who knows what germs. Upping your vitamin intake before, during and after could help boost your immunity. Barrière makes these adorable vitamin patches, from vitamin D3 stickers that look like suns to vitamin B12 ones that look like rainbows, hearts and palm trees. I'm especially obsessed with the Travel Well patches, which have zinc and vitamin D3 — both essential for immune function — and elderberry, which may also support immune health. I also like MegaFood's burpless omega-3 pills, since fish oil is kind of a magic ingredient for everything from immunity to heart health to brain function. And this one's got none of those gross fishy burps. Finally, my least sexy recommendation — but something I absolutely can't live without: NeilMed's sinus rinse kit. If you've never done nasal irrigation before (like a NetiPot), it may take some getting used to. But when I'm using this nightly, I don't get colds. They just flush everything out. It's also good for allergies and flu and COVID symptom relief — just make sure you're following the directions so you don't get a brain-eating amoeba.

These £23 gummies are one writer's secret to uninterrupted sleep - and they can help with nighttime menopause symptoms
It's no secret that Brits aren't getting enough sleep. According to YouGov, only 20% of people in the UK regularly get the recommended eight hours a night, while 45% say they get just six hours or less – a level many doctors label as unhealthy. What is melatonin and how does it aid sleep? If you've searched 'how to fall asleep faster?' or 'sleep supplements UK', chances are you've come across melatonin. It's a hormone naturally produced by your body in response to darkness, helping to regulate your sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin levels decline with age, especially for women over 50. Taking a melatonin supplement can help trigger sleep more quickly and improve its quality, particularly if you're dealing with insomnia (yes, including menopause-induced insomnia), jet lag, or disrupted sleep patterns. Can you buy melatonin in the UK? In the UK, melatonin is a prescription-only medication used to treat short-term insomnia and in some cases jet-lag, and it must be prescribed by your GP or sourced via an online pharmacy. Boots and Superdrug both offer virtual consultations. But what if you want to buy melatonin online without a prescription? We ordered a bottle of Lemme Sleep melatonin gummies from Kourtney Kardashian 's wellness brand, and they arrived from the US just five days later (shipping cost around £11). Do Lemme Sleep gummies work? Each berry-flavoured gummy contains 5mg of melatonin and 3g of sugar, and the recommended dose is one gummy taken 30 minutes before bedtime. The result when we tried them? A longer, deeper night's sleep. We weren't surprised to see over 1,200 five-star reviews online stating the same, with one user raving: 'These are the only things I've found that help me sleep all night.' Lemme Sleep gummies £23 Shop What do the experts say? The Mail On Sunday's resident GP Dr Ellie Cannon says it's 'not a bad idea' to invest if you're struggling with poor sleep. But it's worth noting there can be minor side effects. 'Melatonin can cause joint aches and back pain, as well as nightmares, anxiety and abdominal discomfort,' she says. It's worth starting on a low dose (1mg or 2mg) and seeing how your body reacts. Where else can you buy melatonin? Melatonin is available over the counter in countries like Spain, France, Italy, Greece and the US. Stock up on your summer holiday and take one on the flight home. My 3mg tablets (LAC, around £15 for 120) knocked me out for a 14-hour redeye from Singapore.

Kourtney Kardashian unveils bold new product
You've got to give it to those Kardashian/Jenner sisters; if they're not starting trends, they're jumping on them. And love them or hate them, they always seem to find a way to make headlines - and sell stuff. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Kourtney Kardashian, now known as Kourtney Kardashian Barker, is the oldest sister in the crew, and while she doesn't have a brand as well-known as Kim's Skims or youngest sister Kylie Jenner's Kylie Cosmetics, Kourtney has attached her name to a suite of products, including a line of supplements dubbed Lemme. Kardashian Barker launched Lemme in 2022 and now has a line of gummy vitamins and supplements with an insanely rabid fan base (as do many of the sisters' products), at least according to the reviews. Related: Struggling mall retailer tries something completely different The products range from "Lemme Matcha" for increased energy, "Lemme Sleep" for a better night's rest, and "Lemme Focus" for better concentration. Apparently, everyone is exhausted, can't sleep, and has ADD. I mean, she's not wrong... Image source:Even though ads for sexual health products for men are all over television and pretty much everywhere else, there is still a stigma associated with sexual pleasure and sexual health in general, especially for women. At least that's what Kardashian Barker and Simon Huck, the cofounder of Lemme, believe. More on weight-loss drugs: Mark Cuban has compelling words about Ozempic and Cost Plus DrugsOzempic, weight-loss drugs rise and the fitness industry reactsHow anti-obesity drugs force a change of focus on health So, they set out to develop a product with what they say are libido-enhancing ingredients, including S7 nitric acid, which increases nitric oxide in the body and promotes healthy blood flow. S7 nitric acid stimulates the body's own nitric oxide production, which can benefit exercise performance, energy levels, and muscle function. It's not exactly Viagra. But supplements like the ones from Lemme are regulated as food, not medicine, so it's hard to know if those "libido enhancing" claims would withstand any scientific scrutiny. Kardashian Barker and Huck say they have been working on Lemme Play for two years. The inspiration came from - where else? - Instagram and TikTok. They also relied on feedback from customers who buy other Lemme products, like the company's hair-growth formula and GLP-1 support supplement, to create a product in the burgeoning sexual wellness category.

"Lemme Play is a way to care for yourself, to feel good in your body, and to embrace intimacy as part of your daily routine." In addition to the S7 nitric oxide complex, Lemme Play contains botanicals like horny goat weed and maca root, which are known to enhance libido, according to a company statement. The gummy is meant to be taken daily, and while marketed to women, it's fine for men to take it, too. "We know our customer," Huck said. "They want results, but they also want something indulgent. A gummy makes sense - it's fun, effective, and it aligns with the format preference we've seen across our product line." Lemme Play will be available starting Tuesday, May 13, and will initially be sold directly to consumers.

The best tasting sleep solution: Aussies obsessed with these sleep gummies that are giving them more shut-eye
When Kourtney Kardashian launched her Lemme range of gummies no one could predict how successful they would become. Thousands of Americans have called the revolutionary chewables 'life-changing' but up until now they've been nearly impossible to get in Australia. But thanks to iHerb, you can now stock up on the infamous Sleep Tight Gummies, for your best sleep yet. The berry flavoured gummies retail for just $56.44, and have been declared as 'incredible' by shoppers who have got their hands on them. 'I take 1 gummy every night, about 15 minutes before bed and I wake up feeling so refreshed - not to mention that it doesn't make me groggy unlike other sleep products,' one reviewer wrote. Created by Kourtney Kardashian Barker, the Lemme Sleep Gummies claim to help you fall into a deep, peaceful night sleep. If you struggle falling asleep and are sick of battling exhaustion and fatigue, this seems to be the ultimate solution. The Lemme Sleep Gummies are formulated with melatonin, magnesium, L-theanine and a dreamy blend of chamomile, lavender and elderberry to help you fall asleep faster. You'll wake up feeling refreshed while the gummies also promote restful sleep patterns. Shoppers have given the sleep gummies, a 4.5-star rating on iHerb's website. 'The quality of these gummies is incredible. The dosage is meant to be 2 before bed but I only need 1 to fall asleep almost instantly. They taste great too,' one shopper wrote. 'This is the absolute best sleep product I have ever tried. I usually have trouble falling asleep, and wake up once or twice during the night, but not since taking Lemme Sleep,' another shopper added. 'Finally, a sleep gummy that truly works! I've struggled with falling asleep and staying asleep for years, and Lemme Sleep has been a game-changer,' a third shopper commented. Adults are advised to take two gummies daily for a deep and restful sleep. Do not exceed suggested use. If you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition or are taking any medication, consult your doctor before use.
