Covid-19 Update: Stay Vigilant

Health News Update: Happy New Year 2026! 1.5.26 Hey there everyone: Here is some news you can use to help you age optimally. I have written before about circadian rhythms and meal timing where it has been shown that eTRF (early time restricted feeding) has many benefits. But what happens as we age and shift our mealtimes away from our natural circadian clocks? Here are some snippets from this paper: “Chrononutrition, the study of the timing of eating, has emerged as a modifiable risk factor for adverse health outcomes The role of eating schedules is biologically relevant as dietary intake acts as an environmental cue influencing the circadian clocks of peripheral metabolic tissues and therefore can contribute to circadian misalignment and internal desynchrony 2 , 10 . The emerging evidence largely suggests that later mealtimes, particularly eating during the biological evening, is detrimental to health, Physical and psychological illnesses, including fatigue, oral health problems, depression, anxiety, and multimorbidity, are primarily associated with later breakfast. Later breakfast timing is also associated with increased mortality Importantly, eating breakfast later with aging was linked to a higher risk of death” https://www.nature.com/articles/s43856-025-01035-x meal timing important for health Bottom Line: While this paper focuses on the elderly, it is certainly applicable to all of us. I have seen significant health benefits when people adopt eTRF patters…from better digestion to weight loss, to better sleep, to more energy!
