Back to EpisodesEpisode 26: How Circadian Rhythm Impacts Your Health
Description
Your body has a clock that never makes mistakes. Unlike man-made timepieces that force us into disruptive events like daylight savings time, your internal circadian rhythm is designed to keep every system in your body functioning optimally. When we honor this rhythm, healing happens naturally.
This deep dive into circadian rhythm goes far beyond basic sleep advice. Denise and Kira explore how your internal clock regulates not just when you feel sleepy, but your hormones, digestion, mood, and even the health of your gut microbiome. They reveal why disruptions like irregular sleep schedules, late-night eating, and excessive artificial light exposure can throw your entire system into disarray - impacting everything from cortisol levels to sex hormones and even the gut lining (which can replace itself every 2-5 days with proper light signaling!).
Kira suggested: My Circadian App. Use this to get outside at sunrise for 1-5 minutes, and again at UVA rise.
