Optimal Bedtime Chronology

Meaning

Optimal Bedtime Chronology is the precise, individualized timing of sleep onset that aligns with an individual’s specific circadian rhythm and maximizes the nocturnal hormonal and restorative processes, such as Growth Hormone release and metabolic repair. This concept moves beyond simply ensuring adequate sleep duration to emphasize the critical importance of when sleep occurs relative to the body’s natural dark cycle and the peak secretion of melatonin. Clinically, adherence to this chronology is a powerful non-pharmacological tool for endocrine and metabolic optimization.
