Timing is everything. A fresh example supporting the old saying has been found in connection with the systems regulated by biological clocks. Research on circadian rhythms, our internal 24-hour patterns that affect sleep-wake and metabolic cycles, has shown that timing is key for human health. When our activities and internal circadian clocks are out of...
