Circadian rhythm essentially relates to almost a daily timetable of things that has to happen in our body, whether it is fighting infection, metabolic balance, brain health. or even repair and rejuvenation for injuries. And when we think about circadian rhythm, then since it's a big new concept, it's also a little bit difficult to understand.

But just imagine that in our life, daily life, we organize our life around time. We think of the whole day, what time I have to get up, what time I have to go to school or send kids to school, and then what time I go to work, what do I do, and then in the evening, what time I have to meet friends or get back to home, what time we sleep.

So similarly, every single cell in our body has its own 24-hour timetable. That means the cell has to decide, okay, this is the time I have to make energy. This is the time when I have to recycle. This is the time to divide and rejuvenate.

So this is a very new concept in science, and this has the potential to impact our daily habits, and it has the potential to increase efficacy of medications that we take or supplements that we take on a daily basis.

And also what we're seeing now, there are also new drugs that are based on circadian rhythm to essentially based on the idea that as we get older or in many diseases, our circadian clocks are disrupted. And the question is, if we can fix our clock with a new drug, can we also fix a disease? So these are the three big principles that are coming into play.

And you mentioned time-restricted eating, intermittent fasting. That's kind of one aspect of this circadian rhythm biology. But this is actually one way to get into the science because once we understand why we should be eating in less than 12 hours and why that has to be consistent for the science behind it, then we can dissect a little more into the interrelated parts of fasting, sleep,

what time we should be exposed to light, when we should exercise, and that will give us kind of a nice toolbox for each one of us to adopt.
