Scientists have discovered that breast cancer can disrupt the brain’s internal clock almost immediately after the onset of cancer, without anyone noticing. In mice, tumors flattened the natural daily rhythm of stress hormones, disrupting the feedback loop between the brain and body that regulates stress, sleep, and immunity.

Your daily rhythm may be more important to your brain health than previously thought. Older adults with weaker, more disrupted activity patterns were far more likely to develop dementia than those with stable routines. A later daily energy peak was also associated with a higher risk. The study points to the internal clock as a […]
