It is well established that deep sleep is essential to overall health and well-being, both short-term and long-term. During deep sleep, numerous health-preserving processes take place, including the flushing of toxins from the brain, the repair of tissues and immune system strengthening. According to University of California, Berkeley researchers, in addition to the connection between […]
Body Temperature Rhythms Change With Age: Here’s How it Affects Your Health
A recent study conducted by University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) researchers, offered interesting results concerning changes in body temperature rhythms. Published in Chronobiology International, a peer-reviewed journal specializing in biological and medical rhythm research, the results of the study linked those changes in body temperature patterns to aging and disease. The connection between aging […]
Exposure to Devices, Blue Light Damages Skin — Here’s How
With the rise in the use of blue-light-emitting devices, such as mobile phones and tablets, and artificial lighting, such as LED lights, the potential health impact of blue light has been garnering increased attention from researchers. Studies have shown that blue light can impact your melatonin production, sleep quality, circadian rhythm and eye health. Fortunately, […]
Brain Protein Implicated in Alzheimer’s Linked to Circadian Rhythm
As the most common form of dementia, Alzheimer’s disease affects memory and the ability to concentrate on simple tasks. This brain disorder eventually worsens, affecting the individual’s ability to perform basic tasks in their daily life. New research has found Alzheimer’s linked to circadian rhythm, indicating good quality sleep helps the brain flush the proteins […]
New Discoveries in Chronobiology: The Circadian Clock Protects Eyes as They Age
Exciting new research conducted by a team of researchers led by Purdue University College of Agriculture biochemistry associate professor Vikki Weake offers fresh insight into the links between a healthy circadian rhythm and eye health and function as we age. According to the results of this new study, published in PLOS Genetics, the circadian clock […]
