A new study by researchers at the University of Surrey, the University of South Carolina, and Central Queensland University suggests that much of what we do every day is guided by habits rather than conscious decisions. Published in Psychology & Health, the study found that about two-thirds of daily behaviors are automatic, running on “autopilot” […]A new study by researchers at the University of Surrey, the University of South Carolina, and Central Queensland University suggests that much of what we do every day is guided by habits rather than conscious decisions.

To Improve Your Heart Health, You Should Stop Eating 3 Hours Before Going to Bed
Researchers at Northwestern Medicine investigated whether adjusting the nighttime fasting period to a person’s natural sleep-wake cycle could improve heart and metabolic health. The circadian rhythm plays a central role in regulating cardiovascular and metabolic functions. Importantly, participants did not reduce their calorie intake. The focus was solely on adjusting meal times. The study found […]Researchers at Northwestern Medicine investigated whether adjusting the nighttime fasting period to a person's natural sleep-wake cycle could improve heart and metabolic health.

You might think that summer is healthier. The sun is shining, we get plenty of vitamin D, and the days are long. However, research findings from the University of Copenhagen suggest that winter eating habits are better for our metabolic health than summer eating habits, at least if you are a mouse. Researchers studied the […]You might think that summer is healthier. The sun is shining, we get plenty of vitamin D, and the days are long.

From counting sheep to using white noise to employing weight blankets: people try countless ways to improve their sleep. However, poor sleep has serious consequences and affects heart and metabolic health, memory, learning ability, productivity, emotional balance, and even relationships. Now, scientists say that a surprisingly effective remedy for better sleep may already be on […]From counting sheep to using white noise to employing weight blankets: people try countless ways to improve their sleep.

Scientists Reveal How the Timing of Breakfast Can Affect Your Life Expectancy
As we age, both the type and amount of food we consume tend to change. However, the relationship between mealtimes and our health remains largely unclear. Researchers at Mass General Brigham and their collaborators studied changes in meal times among older adults and found that meal times gradually shift with age. They also identified characteristics […]As we age, both the type and amount of food we consume tend to change. However, the relationship between mealtimes and our health remains largely unclear.
