Chronotype Management

Meaning

Chronotype Management is the clinical practice of aligning an individual’s daily behavioral and metabolic schedule—including sleep, exercise, and meal timing—with their intrinsic biological circadian rhythm, or chronotype. This personalized approach aims to optimize physiological processes by respecting the genetically determined timing of peak alertness and rest. Effective management mitigates the detrimental health effects associated with chronic circadian misalignment, often referred to as social jetlag. Synchronizing internal clocks supports better hormonal regulation, mood stability, and metabolic health. It is a fundamental strategy for improving systemic function.
