Chronobiology refers to the process by which organisms time their behavior and physiology so that everything behaves rhythmically. In other words, it is biological timing. It is the rhythms of life; the internal clocks that control when you wake up, eat, digest your food and perform nearly every function that an organism is to perform. […]
Chronobiology and How Our Internal Cycles Are Affected By External Factors
Chronobiology is an emerging area of study in the field of biology. It looks at how physical, mental and emotional cycles of humans and animals are affected and regulated by various natural rhythms, particularly those of the moon and sun. Sometimes called “circadian biology,” chronobiology is a multidisciplinary study that can touch on many elements […]
Chronobiology and Diet: How When and What We Eat Matters
Chronobiology is the branch of biology dedicated to understanding how our internal clock interacts with external cues in the environment. The alternation between light and darkness is the most prominent external cue. When the cues are weak, the body’s key functions can fall out of sync. When dietary problems are factored in, one can experience […]
