How Time Restricted Eating Changes Your Gene Expression
Just as we once didn’t know there was a “Master Clock” within our brain guiding bodily processes and genetic expression over the standard light/darkness cycle we call a 24-hour day….
Turns out many other parts of the body know how to tell time too… But rather than Light and Darkness being their guide, these areas often tick to their own unique tock…
And just so happens, WHEN and HOW MUCH we eat is one of these “Time-Guiding Tocks” which entrain the biological clocks and genetic expression across many of our key organ systems….
Often causing BIG fluctuations of activity upon energy consumption and periods of fasting… Pretty Cool right!
But here’s the thing…..
Modern research indicates that staying-up and eating into the wee hours of the night can throw our internal body clocks outta wack… CuKooo if you will.
Potentially driving a downstream flurry of sub-optimal effects which ultimately increase the odds, likelihood and probability of disease over time… Pretty Not Cool, Right…
However, there is hope. This same research has also identified that these sub-optimal EFFECTS are something that structured meal timing can help prevent & alleviate!
Let’s see just how it works its magic….
