A recent study conducted by University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) researchers, offered interesting results concerning changes in body temperature rhythms. Published in Chronobiology International, a peer-reviewed journal specializing in biological and medical rhythm research, the results of the study linked those changes in body temperature patterns to aging and disease. The connection between aging […]
How a High-Salt Diet Disrupts Circadian Rhythm and Sleep
A high-sodium diet has long been associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk. A new study conducted by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has found that a high-salt diet disrupts circadian rhythm timing, impacting the sleep-wake cycle. Disruptions in the sleep-wake cycle can impact sleep quality. Insufficient and poor-quality sleep are associated with an increase […]
