When you eat matters

When you eat matters

Eating is an essential part of human life and it turns out that not only what we eat but when we eat can impact our brains. Irregular eating times have been shown to contribute to poor mental health, including depression and anxiety, as well as to cardio-metabolic diseases and weight gain.

The circadian clock system is responsible for aligning our internal processes at optimal times of the day based on cues from the environment such as light or food. Fortunately, it is possible to leverage our eating rhythms to limit negative moods and increase mental health.
