Circadian Biology Part 1: Our Internal Clock That Runs With The Earth is The Most Powerful Thing For Our Health | Improvement Warrior Podcast Episode 68
Circadian Biology Part 1: Our Internal Clock That Runs With The Earth is The Most Powerful Thing For Our Health
Key Takeaways:
Importance of Circadian Biology:
Essential for overall health and well-being.
Internal clocks in the body, brain, heart, and liver require daily resetting via natural light exposure.
Role of the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus (SCN):
Acts as the master clock and needs daily resetting through photoentrainment (exposure to natural light, especially at sunrise).
Organ and Tissue Clocks:
The body has approximately 20,000 to 25,000 clocks influenced primarily by light and food intake.
Circadian mismatches can lead to health problems.
Impact of Meal Timing:
Meal timing can shift circadian rhythms in body temperature and heart rate.
Eating during light cycles and finishing meals shortly after sunset is crucial for health.
Leptin and Its Importance:
Leptin regulates hunger and energy metabolism.
Resetting leptin levels involves watching sunrise, avoiding snacking, and eating a large breakfast early.
The Four-Hour Rule for Leptin:
Finish eating at least four hours before sleeping to allow leptin to enter the brain and initiate sleep and hormonal processes.
Positive Attitude:
A positive mindset is vital for health improvements.
Always seek to improve your knowledge and question mainstream health beliefs.

Toxic Turf | Improvement Warrior Podcast Episode 61
This podcast and blog post come from another podcast that I was unaware of and am hoping to bring awareness to in regards to the toxic aspects of artificial turf and PFAS. As a former gym owner I once I moved into my studio in 2011 it was shortly thereafter that I purchased my artififical turf to put in the studio. Many hours spent in that gym for me and my clients and after closing the gym I moved some of the turf into my home garage and garage gym. I am currently in the process of throwing it out permanently.
This podcast comes from Green Street with Patti and Doug Wood and this one is called Toxic Turf with Barbara Laker and David Gambacorta
