The circadian ‘secret’ to a healthy body, sharp mind, and better mood

Lynne Peeples, a former biostatistician turned science journalist, has written a book called "The Inner Clock: Living in Sync with Our Circadian Rhythms." The book explores how modern society disrupts our natural circadian rhythms and offers practical solutions to reinfuse lost circadian cues. Peeples shares five key insights from her book, including the importance of contrast, constricting our eating window, and consistency in our daily routines. She also discusses how circadian science can enhance performance, productivity, and medicine, as well as its potential applications in sustainability and even space exploration.
