Your circadian rhythm is part of a web of body clocks that keep your body ticking through the day and regenerating and repairing through the night. In this episode, medical doctor Max Gulhane explains the parts of the circadian rhythm and how to optimise them with appropriate light and dark exposure. He includes how to optimise eating times to improve your health through pregnancy, parenting and all of life! Humans lead cyclical lives and honouring the night and dark cycles facilitates healthy function of your body. This conversation is essential listening if you are interested in understanding your body and improving your short and long term health.
