    What Is Circadian Misalignment?

    - By 

    In today’s 24/7 society, many people unknowingly suffer from circadian misalignment, a condition that silently disrupts your internal body clock. This misalignment between your biological rhythms and external cues such as light, food, and activity can wreak havoc on your health, performance, and overall well-being. What Is Circadian Misalignment? Circadian misalignment occurs when your internal body clock—also known as the circadian rhythm—is out of sync with your environment or behavior. Your circadian system is a 24-hour cycle that regulates sleep-wake timing, hormone release, metabolism, and even immune function. It’s controlled by a master clock in the brain (the suprachiasmatic nucleus)…

    What Is the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus?

    - By 

    The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is a tiny but powerful structure in the brain that plays a massive role in how our bodies function on a daily basis. Often referred to as the master clock, the suprachiasmatic nucleus controls your circadian rhythm—the internal 24-hour cycle that regulates sleep, hormone release, body temperature, digestion, and other essential biological processes. Understanding what the suprachiasmatic nucleus does, how it works, and why it matters is key to improving your sleep, mental clarity, and overall health. Where Is the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Located? The suprachiasmatic nucleus is located in the hypothalamus, just above the optic chiasm…

    Causes and Symptoms of Disrupted Circadian Rhythm

    - By 

    A disrupted circadian rhythm can throw your entire body off balance. From poor sleep to chronic fatigue, mood swings, and digestive issues, the effects of a misaligned internal clock are far-reaching. Understanding what causes circadian rhythm disruptions and how to restore your natural body clock is essential for long-term health and well-being. The circadian rhythm is your body’s internal 24-hour clock. It regulates sleep-wake cycles, hormone production, body temperature, digestion, and other biological processes. This rhythm is influenced primarily by light exposure, particularly sunlight, and helps determine when you feel alert or sleepy. When this rhythm is aligned, you feel…
