The circadian system orchestrates metabolism in daily 24-hour cycles. Such rhythms
organize metabolism by temporally separating opposing metabolic processes and by …

The incidence of the metabolic syndrome represents a spectrum of disorders that continue to
increase across the industrialized world. Both genetic and environmental factors contribute …

The circadian system regulates daily rhythms in lipid metabolism and adipose tissue
function. Although disruption of circadian clock function is associated with negative …

Background Altering the temporal distribution of energy intake (EI) and introducing periods
of intermittent fasting (IF) exert important metabolic effects. Restricting EI to earlier in the day …

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients are at a higher risk of developing Alzheimer's
disease (AD). Mounting evidence suggests the emerging important role of circadian rhythms …

To determine whether elevations of cortisol levels have more pronounced effects on glucose
levels and insulin secretion in the evening (at the trough of the daily rhythm) or in the …

Daily (circadian) rhythms coordinate our physiology and behaviour with regular
environmental changes. Molecular clocks in peripheral tissues (eg liver, skeletal muscle and …

Past work suggests that executive functioning relies on glucose as a depletable energy,
such that executive functioning uses a relatively large amount of glucose and is impaired …

Mounting research evidence demonstrates a significant negative impact of circadian
disruption on human health. Shift work, chronic jet lag and sleep disturbances are …
