Circadian Rhythm Engineering

Meaning

Circadian Rhythm Engineering is the deliberate, clinical manipulation of environmental and behavioral inputs to align the body’s internal 24-hour biological clock with optimal physiological function. This practice focuses on synchronizing the master clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and peripheral clocks in various organs to enhance hormone secretion patterns, metabolic efficiency, and sleep quality. Effective engineering of this rhythm is essential for maximizing human health and preventing the negative consequences of chronodisruption.
