Exploring the Impact of Chrono-Nutrition on Metabolism and Weight Management: A Comprehensive Review
Mandira Chatterjee | Tanima Paul Das
Abstract: Chrono-nutrition researches how the time of meals influences human health, using the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), the brain's internal clock. This clock regulates how often you eat, your metabolism, and other body processes. The body's circadian rhythm control how food is processed, how much energy is used, and how health indicators like hormones and glucose are used. However, our love for excellent food can interfere with natural cycles and change how we eat. The effects of different meal times, such as eating in the morning vs the evening and eating within a set time limit, on metabolism and weight are studied by researchers. This reveals connection between the internal clock, meal timing, and metabolism, furthering our understanding of the potential health benefits of chrono-nutrition. The function of chrono-nutrition on metabolism and weight control is examined in this review.
Keywords: Chrono-nutrition, circadian rhythm, metabolism, hormones, weight control
