- Sleep is an essential function that allows the human body to refresh and recover; sleep is comprised of 4 stages that make up one full night of rest.
- Hi, my name is Randy! I'm hear to talk to you about healthy sleep habits and circadian rhythm!
- The most common light-related circadian rhythm involves sleeping during the night and being awake during the day
- Circadian Rhythm's are physical, mental, & behavioral changes that follow a 24-hour cycle
- Your biological clock or SCN is what regulates your circadian rhythm; it's composed of specific molecules (proteins) that interact with cells throughout the body. Nearly every tissue and organ contains biological clocks. Researchers have identified similar genes in people, fruit flies, mice, plants, fungi, and several other organisms that make the clocks’ molecular components.
- Circadian rhythms influence important functions in our body such as hormone release, eating habits and digestion, and body temperature
- This is why I try and and sleep at the same time every night, making sure to reduce my intake of light earlier in the evening!
- People mostly notice the effects of circadian rhythm on their sleep patterns. The Suprachiasmatic Nucleus (SCN) controls the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone, from the pineal gland. It bases the amount of melatonin produced by the amount of light it receives through optic nerves.
- Circadian disruptions and lack of sleep have been associated with serious health problems ranging from cancer to obesity to depression.
- The goal is to one day be able to make health and behavioral recommendations tailored specifically by someones Circadian Rhythm
- Our innate cycle is not exactly 24 hours, so our biological clocks must reset daily to sync with the Earth’s rotation. Because of this, and because each person’s light-dark exposure is different depending on habits and location, the timing of our biological clock is difficult to measure
- If you love your body and love a good nights sleep, then circadian rhythm is on your side! Show love to the cycle and it'll show love to you!
- Circadian Rhythm's are very sensitive so make sure to try and limit light exposure (including phone light) before bed and generally go to bed around similar times
