Probably best to assume sunlight brightness is optimal for circadian rhythm still, (faster effects at that brightness?), but studies have shown light from standard lightbulbs give significant effects on circadian rhythm still, especially if around 500 lux which looks to give full effects in...
I randomly decided to not eat any wheat. Noticed nothing that day.
The next day:
No morning grog
Morning wood (unusual for me)
No daytime sleepiness
Pooped 3 times that day
Only had to wipe 2 or 3 times
Erections are Enzyte-tier and on time
My scrotum now hangs my balls. (My scrotum normally...
Disruptions in the circadian clock have been shown to directly cause a number of disease including obesity, diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer, Parkinson, and even ALS. People working night shifts or engaging in frequent flying across many timezones are the most...
Hopefully this won't spur another war on words as the previous discussion on the circadian clock. This study found that the coenzyme FAD (a derivative of riboflavin) control the circadian clock in a light-independent manner. To make the matters even more "metabolic" so to speak, the levels of...

Taurine Treatment Modulates Circadian Rhythms in Mice Fed A High Fat Diet. - PubMed - NCBI
Close ties have been made among certain nutrients, obesity, type 2 diabetes and circadian clocks. Among nutrients, taurine has been documented as being effective against obesity and type 2 diabetes...
Disruption of the Circadian Clock in Mice Increases Intestinal Permeability and Promotes Alcohol-Induced Hepatic Pathology and Inflammation
Here we report, for the first time, that circadian disorganization causes increased permeability of the intestinal epithelial barrier in mice. Both genetic...
Daily magnesium fluxes regulate cellular timekeeping and energy balance. - PubMed - NCBI
Circadian clocks are fundamental to the biology of most eukaryotes, coordinating behaviour and physiology to resonate with the environmental cycle of day and night through complex networks of...
If the results of this study translate to humans then taking a little pregnenolone or progesterone (which restrain excessive cortisol release) may allow people to quickly adapt their circadian clock to a new environment as a result of long flights or working in prolonged conditions of artificial...
Some interesting ideas from Chris Masterjohn:

This is an excellent study b/c it demonstrates the circadian clock, which is one of the bastions of genetics, is actually controlled by metabolism and, more importantly, by the availability of sugar as a food source. Good and predictable availability of food "stabilizes" the circadian clock as...
I read the interesting claim that red lights are used for night illumination because they are supposed to be safer in terms of interference on the circadian cycle.
Is there any truth to that? What are some interesting implications?
