A research team led by scientists from several Japanese institutions has identified a compound called Mic-628 that directly influences the body’s internal clock. Experiments showed that Mic-628 specifically activates Per1, a core gene that helps regulate the daily biorhythm in mammals. Faster Recovery from Jet lag in Animal Experiments miR-628 (also known as miRNA-628) belongs […]
Pink noise is often used to help people fall asleep, but new research suggests that it may interfere with the most restorative stages of sleep. A study by the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, published in the journal Sleep, found that pink noise reduced REM sleep and disrupted overall recovery during […]

In one study, participants completed an intense workout after a normal night’s sleep and after three nights of reduced sleep. When they exercised after reduced sleep, levels of the heart damage biomarker troponin rose slightly more than when participants exercised after a full night’s sleep. This study, published in the journal Molecular Metabolism, is a […]
