One of the most important things you can do for your health is to get good sleep in the new year. With these […]
Reset Your Circadian Rhythm for Better Sleep and Good Health
The highly complex, smoothly integrated mind and body systems humans enjoy evolved in tune to the approximately 24-hour period that encompasses day and night. We are fine-tuned down to the molecular level to operate in time with this daily, or circadian, rhythm, with even cellular functions being timed according to this cycle. Disrupting the circadian […]
Intermittent Fasting Improves Memory, May Slow Cognitive Decline
An intriguing new study published in Molecular Biology showed that intermittent fasting improves memory — especially long-term memory retention. Conducted on mice at King’s College London by researchers in the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience, the study also noted that intermittent fasting was associated with the development of new adult hippocampal neurons. Researchers theorize […]
Cancer and the Circadian Clock: Maintaining Balance for Cellular Health
Operating on the approximately 24-hour circadian rhythm that mirrors the earth’s day-night cycle, the circadian clock plays a vital role in regulating the timing of essential bodily processes. As such, the circadian clock is tightly connected to human health. Chronic circadian rhythm disruption, such as that typically experienced by shift workers, significantly increases the risk […]
