Abstract
Circadian health is linked to cardiometabolic indicators such as excessive weight and type 2 diabetes.
- Disruptions to circadian rhythms may negatively impact cardiometabolic function.
- Key behavioral factors that can affect circadian health include light exposure, food intake, physical exercise, and sleep timing.
- Morning bright light exposure and minimizing light at night could help improve circadian health.
- Appropriately timed sleep, meals, and exercise may also be effective in reducing circadian disruptions.
- Understanding circadian rhythms is important for maintaining and promoting overall cardiometabolic health.
