What FoundMyFitness Has Covered
PremiumCircadian rhythms are biological timing systems that shape metabolic health, body weight, performance, cognition, and disease susceptibility. Their disruption—through shift work, jet lag, or modern light-and-sleep patterns—is associated with metabolic dysfunction and higher incidence of some…

Aliquot #47: Aligning food intake with the body's circadian rhythms
“Circadian rhythms play key roles in metabolic health and ultimately influence body weight, performance, and susceptibility to diseases like diabetes and cancer. Aligning food intake with circadian rhythms can improve many aspects of metabolic health.”

Dr. Satchin Panda on Circadian Insights into Exercise Timing, Melatonin Biology, and Peak Cognition
“00:21:51 - How understanding the relationship between melatonin and insulin secretion might help us decide when to eat. 00:28:50 - How shift work, jet lag, and modern lifestyles contribute to altered circadian rhythms and metabolic dysfunction.”

Time-restricted eating
“Furthermore, shift workers and healthy people who intentionally disrupt their circadian rhythms exhibit signs of metabolic dysfunction and higher incidence of several chronic diseases, including cancer.”

Sleep Regularity
“Get morning light exposure by spending 10–30 minutes in natural light within 1–2 hours of waking to anchor your circadian rhythm. Limit evening light exposure by reducing artificial light 1–2 hours before bed and using dim, warm lighting or blue-light-blocking glasses.”

Melatonin
“In a vicious cycle, these disrupted rhythms also contribute to many Alzheimer’s-disease-associated pathways. Supplementing with melatonin may act as a “circadian shield”—a way to maintain normal rhythms in hope of preventing cognitive decline and a way to restore rhythms to slow disease progression.”

“For example, the NPAS2 gene encodes for the protein Npas2, which functions in the brain as a generator and maintainer of circadian rhythm. It descends from the same ancestral gene as the CLOCK gene, which encodes for the protein Clock, a key regulator of circadian rhythms.”
