Abstract

Disruptions of the endogenous circadian clock are linked to metabolic dysfunctions associated with obesity and diabetes.

  • Circadian timing plays a significant role in body weight regulation.
  • Both environmental and genetic disruptions of the circadian clock may contribute to metabolic disorders.
  • Findings from animal models and clinical studies in humans support the connection between circadian rhythms and metabolism.
  • Understanding the mechanisms behind circadian impacts could enhance clinical practices for improving health.
