EATING BY THE CLOCK

Why Meal Timing Matters More Than You Think

- By Sunil Malhotra

Most conversations around food focus on what we eat.

Calories, nutrients, ingredients, and superfoods take the spotlight. But there is another factor that quietly plays a huge role in our health - when we eat. Meal timing, though often overlooked, has a powerful connection to our metabolism, energy levels, sleep quality, and even mood.

Our bodies follow a natural internal rhythm, known as the circadian rhythm. This biological clock regulates everything from hormone release to digestion. Just as our sleep cycle thrives on consistency, so does our digestive system. When we align our meals with these natural rhythms, our bodies respond more efficiently.
