Internal Clocks for Humans and Fish The lives of humans are regulated by their circadian rhythms, or 24-hour cycles. This rhythm affects all life forms, but have you stopped to consider a life without this clock? Recently, researchers in the Department of Biology at Lund University in Sweden have studied one species that has eliminated […]
Time-Restricted Diets Could Help Fight Obesity: A Chronobiological Study
Losing weight may just be a matter of time—literally! Chronobiology, a growing field of biological sciences, studies the difference between the internal processes that take place in the bodies of living organisms and compares how these processes react during the daylight and during nighttime. Recent research by renowned chronobiologist Dr. Satchidananda Panda, an associate professor at the […]
Chronobiology and Diet: How When and What We Eat Matters

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 […]
