Jet lag and other circadian disorders are common in the modern world. What if you could treat jet lag with simple changes like altering the times when you eat? If you have ever flown across time zones or worked a night shift, you know what jet lag feels like. This disorder occurs when your body […]Jet lag and other circadian disorders are common in the modern world. What if you could treat jet lag with simple changes like altering the times when you eat?

Your Internal Clock has a Helper: The Astrocyte
Astrocytes were once believed to have a single, simple role as structural support in the brain. However, new research suggests that they are important in setting your internal clock. Our brain is made of many types of cells. Most people are familiar with neurons, which send and receive electrical impulses that form our thoughts and […]Astrocytes were once believed to have a single, simple role as structural support in the brain.

The Consequence of Cellular Jet Lag: Diabetes
Are your cells out of sync with the world around you? Known as cellular jet lag, this condition may put you at high risk of diabetes and other metabolic disorders. Many people in the modern world live in circadian misalignment, also known as cellular jet lag. The internal clocks of their cells simply do not […]Are your cells out of sync with the world around you?

Dim Light at Night Is Dangerous to Your Metabolism
Are you exposed to even small amounts of light throughout the night? If so, this constant low level of light may be having negative effects on your metabolism. With obesity and the diseases that it causes on the rise in the Western world, many doctors and researchers struggle to find the root causes of this […]Are you exposed to even small amounts of light throughout the night?

Signs of Aging Halted with Genetic Reprograming
Could scientists soon succeed at reversing aging? New technologies that turn back the clock on aging in mice may be available for humans someday as well. Even as scientists and doctors learn to treat or cure a variety of deadly diseases, there is still one cause of death that cannot be treated: aging. Even if […]Could scientists soon succeed at reversing aging? New technologies that turn back the clock on aging in mice may be available for humans someday as well.
