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!

1. Define circadian rhythm and its two biological components.
2. Identify the master biological clock and its cellular networks.
3. Discuss highlights of recent scientific breakthroughs in the field of chronobiology.
4. Explain the central focus of time-restricted feeding and its relationship to circadian rhythm.
5. Define autophagy and its interrelationship with time-restricted feeding.
6. Understand the health significance of achieving synchrony with daily circadian rhythm.

Health and Medical course

More information about Medical:

Medicine is the science and practice of establishing the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Medicine encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.
Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics, and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease,
typically through pharmaceuticals or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, medical devices, biologics, and ionizing radiation, amongst others.

Medicine has been around for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art (an area of skill and knowledge) frequently having connections to the religious and
philosophical beliefs of local culture. For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of modern science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (both basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science).
While stitching technique for sutures is an art learned through practice, the knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched arises through science.
