This week, Rachel sits down with Clinical Nutritionist and Head of Nutrition Innovation at Rootine, Sarah Morgan, to discuss the crucial role of circadian rhythm on our health. They explore its impact on sleep, stress, cognitive function and longevity. Learn whether you have poor circadian health, what common disruptions to look out for, and why the science behind circadian health isn't widely discussed despite its significance. We also take a look at Rootine's new clinician-formulated adaptogen powder drink mixes targeting Sleep, Stress, and Focus revealing their formulation philosophy and key ingredients. Sarah shares practical tips, including the importance of stopping eating three hours before bed and strategies to combat the afternoon slump.
