While concepts associated with chronobiology have been with us for centuries, it is only with modern science that we’ve been able to truly see how biological rhythms come into play on a molecular level. As science is able to delve deeper into the study of biological rhythms and the significance of their timing, a wealth […]
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 […]
Scientists Strive to Determine the Best Time of Day to Take Medication
As medical scientists gain a deeper understanding of chronobiology, they are seeing great potentials for improving the treatment of disease. An important element of that improvement includes the potential to develop what has been termed “personalized circadian medicine,” an approach to care that utilizes a person’s own individual biological rhythms. According to research scientists, circadian […]
New Research Pinpoints the Best Time to Exercise for Men and Women
A new study conducted by a team of researchers from Skidmore College, Arizona State University and California State University provided further insight into how the time of day can impact the outcome of exercise. Published in Frontiers in Physiology, a peer reviewed journal, this new study confirms prior research indicating that exercise timing can influence […]
Sleep Changes During Pregnancy Linked to Depression, Anxiety
Anxiety and depression during the weeks before and after birth is not uncommon. Between 15 and 18 percent of women experience anxiety during this period. Seven to 13 percent of women struggle with depression during this time, with about 10 percent of women dealing with both anxiety and depression. A new study, one of the […]
