How daily body clocks may influence metabolism through timed eating, gut bacteria, and detailed biological analysis
Updated
Abstract
Circadian dysfunction and metabolic disorders may be improved through time-restricted eating (TRE).
- Circadian rhythms are essential for coordinating metabolism in most organisms.
- Genetic disruptions and misalignment of circadian rhythms can lead to metabolic disorders.
- Time-restricted eating (TRE) influences peripheral circadian clocks independent of light exposure.
- TRE may enhance metabolic health by reprogramming gene activity and metabolic processes in various tissues.
- The intestinal microbiota could play a role in the effects of TRE on circadian and metabolic health.
- Omics technology helps visualize the regulatory processes involved in circadian metabolism.
