Is It Time to Eat Yet? Nobel Prize-Winning Body Clock Science Has the Answer
The body clock gene plays a critical role in metabolic function. In a world of 24/7 nonstop chaotic eating, relentless stress, continuous screen-gazing, sedentary lifestyle and sleep deprivation, time has become irrelevant. Such constant disruptions of the powerful circadian rhythm are wreaking life-threatening havoc on mental and physical health. Learn a novel, science-based model to guide when and how to optimally nourish and regenerate that is truly transformational. Be prepared for surprises!
