The first major disruptive shift was from hunter gatherer to agrarian with significant effects on human health. Why we would think we could absorb ourselves in technology with no consequences is what I find baffling.

    I go to bed at 8:30 to 9:00 and get up by 4:00. This has always been my pattern, early to bed and early awake. I introduced a ketovore diet and eat two meals a day. I exercise in the am in a fasted state. My first meal is usually about 10:00 am and my last is done by 3:00 pm. I always take a long walk after the last meal as well. So far, after 5 months its working great and has lowered my BP, increased testosterone, muscle mass and physical stamina even at age 63.

      @Enzo Morf Read, sip coffee, watch the sun come up or this time of year pack the truck and go hunting. Its usually light by the time I get there. Peaceful time of the day with very few people up and about. I am just used to it I guess. I used to commute 90 miles one way to work at 330 am before I retired. I worked alone and could make my own hours and days of the week worked. Very rare to see more than 5 or 6 cars out the whole way.

    I'm a pretty active and healthy 35 year old guy. I used to skip breakfast and eat from ~1pm-7pm. As a health experiment, earlier this summer, I began shifting my eating window to ~10am-2pm. Immediately, I noticed a drop in my resting heart rate from ~47bpm to ~42bpm, and an immediate improvement in the quality of my sleep. I feel so much more rested in the mornings, and have much more energy throughout the day.

    I started early time restricted eating in 2018 before I even knew it was a thing, only because I love eating breakfast lol. I am an empty nester so skipping dinner was easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I followed a keto/low carb diet with a eating window from 8am-2pm and had so many positive benefits from that. My A1C went from 6.8 to 5.4 in 90 days and I had lost 86 lbs in 9 months time. I allowed covid and changes to my work schedule throw me off last year and the weight has been creeping back up. I am now working from home and have a 9 to 5 schedule again so I am back on my 8-2pm eating window and loving it!!

    it took me 4 days to repair my circadian rhythm. I had severe insomnia, at my worse, I didn't sleep for a week. it was so frustrating I just felt like crying every night, plus I'd get anxiety--the strangest feeling would come over me. I did my youtube research. Incorporated ways to help me fall asleep (one of the things, not eating 3 hrs prior to bed), used acupuncture & most importantly I began this practice, 🔅sungazing staring at the sun during sunrise & late evenings🔅. I found that sungazing stimulates the Pinal gland that's responsible for serotonin and melatonin. My first day sungazing at sunrise for 15 minutes, then later during my work break 4:14 pm I went out and stood in the sunshine for 20 minutes. That same night I was in the bed for 9pm and yawning ... I hadn't yawned in a long time. even though i still didn't fall asleep that night, i was happy just to be constantly yawning and I felt so relaxed. In all it took me 4 days to reset my circadian rhythm. I began eating between sunrise and sunset. with the insomnia, it did increase my cortisol, giving me an apple belly. I'm a size 6 so I looked bloated. Now that I'm getting 7 to 9 hrs of sleep, my bloated look is gone and my size 6 pants are fitting loose. Prior, I use to be depended on sleep aids ie melatonin, 5htp, California poppy, lemon balm, chamomile, passionflower ... eventually those stopped working for me. So I had no other choice but to research to why my circadian rhythm was off. I do get my vitamin d from fish eggs supplements, I thought I could forgo the sun lol boy was I so wrong. Now every morning I welcome the sunshine!!!! 🧡💛🌞💛🧡 also on cloudy-rainy days I still go out 15-20 min and look up during sunrise and sunset.

    I was fasting twice a week for 24hrs for five years. Initially, it worked for healing me of T2D and insulin resistance and inflammation. Although eventually, it started to increase my cortisol and, therefore, my blood glucose. I switched to two meals (low carb)a day last meal by 7 p.m. And first meal 16-18 hrs the following day. It seems to be working for me with glucose control and cortisol levels. The key takeaway for me is that we need to keep modifying as the body adapts.

    I'm so FOR this as well. My TRF plan is eating @ 7am, noon and 4pm to be done by 5pm (no snaking in between), and not worrying how much I eat as long as it's unprocessed. Noticed having smaller appetite in the AM but eating stabilises me. And alternating with a whole-day fast the next day. I can eat all the starchy staple I grew up on as well as rice noodles. No desire whatsoever for "something sweet" after a meal, or ever. Feeling so satiated and satisfied. Losing kilos is pretty impressively fast. More than anything, really glad I finally found my own regime that could go on and on with satisfaction. BTW, Dr. Michael Greger is another big proponent of circadian-rhythm lifestyle, as he talks about in and his videos. If the two Michaels meet for a talk, it would be very interesting for me personally.

  • @JezaLoki

    Your chronotype is a major factor, in my experience.
    I’m what’s typically called a night owl (or a wolf). When I work shift from 4pm to midnight, I’m full of energy. This means I can exercise, sleep better, do extended or intermittent fasting while standing on my head it’s so easy. I’m in the best shape of my life.
    However, when I work from 7am to 3pm, everything goes to hell. I’m tired all the time. I stop exercising, I’m too tired and hungry to fast. It’s a train wreck. This goes on for years. I get fatter and unhealthier.
    But as soon as I go to working my preferred hours, everything fits back into place. I immediately resume a healthy lifestyle.
    There’s no one-size-fits-all circadian rhythm. Figure out your chronotype and you’ll be better off.

      I also was very healthy years ago when working midnight to 8am. I always stuck to my sleep schedule of 9:30 am to 4:30 pm and jumped out of bed to run to the gym, dinner around 9pm and a snack around 2am. All hell broke loose when I went on day shift for the next 30 years. Now that I’m retired I’m finally healthy again. I did make the switch to a low carb diet but my bedtime is usually no earlier than 3am. I have a theory why the night owl chronotype came about. Ancient people needed folks who could stay up tending the fire and guarding the rest of the group from predators and attacks by other folks. They were rewarded by being fed and protected while they slept in the daytime.

    Since June 15th of this year (19 weeks) I have lost 63 lbs., and for the first time in many years am convinced I am going to be healthy and fit again. I try to be done eating between 3:00 and 4:00, and my sleep patterns have switched from 4:00 a.m. 'til noon to 10:30-ish to 6:30-ish. Getting that morning sun, walking both mornings and afternoons most days, eating keto and averaging around 8 good-sized meals a week is working a treat! And since the healthy high-fat, low carb diet is so satiating, I never have crazy blood sugar swings where I think I'll die if I don't eat! Wish I had known all this good info decades ago, could have saved myself a ton of grief and ill health! Also, when you live the IF lifestyle, food tastes sooo good when you break that fast!

    A fascinating nugget I gleaned from "The Daylight Diet," by Paul Nison, is that midday light striking our retinas stimulate the formation of gastric juices and is thus the optimal time to feed.

    Whoa! This was packed! I have recently started having my OMAD meal at 4 pm and I go to bed between 9-10. I have noticed that I am sleeping better because there's 5 hour gap between my meal and when I go to bed. DIdn't realize I am getting more benefits due to the gap! I will continue this thanks doc!

    Loved this info! Ive followed you and your wife for a few years and have just admired your content.
    I’ve used IF here and there along side the typical bodybuilding mentality low fat high carb high Protein “iifym” for the past 5 years.
    I’m currently 3 weeks in 14-20hr fasting and cleaned up my eating window even more! Stopped the iifym mentality, no longer afraid of lots of healthy fats!!! I don’t feel restricted or controlled by food AT ALL my bloat and inflammation down tremendously and my depression, anxiety is pretty much none existent, tmi but my libido AMAZING and sleep improved, I have more energy, my mental focus and mental health through the roof and just over all outlook on life and how I react to stress and real life situations I’m more present becoming more in tune with myself and just life around me! Obviously my husband kids and family and friends have noticed the difference and I am directing them on the same path! Everyone of course should consult with a doc that is supportive and trusting 👌🏽 Thanks Mike!

    Thank you. Most informative! I’m currently in hospital after an unconscious fall due to a crash in BP and hypo blood sugar 2mmol/litre. Had hypoglycaemia and low BP and postural hypotension for 15 years. Strict keto and intermittent fasting hasn’t helped me shed my last 8 kgs and a lifetime of shift work as an ED nurse has definitely messed me up. All blood work is always on the low side of normal and become anaemic often. I will definitely try this as it’s backed by good medical research and at aged 70 I want to be around a lot longer! I even feed my dogs the same as myself. Very useful new information I’m always searching for. Keep up the great work and thank you 🙏🏻

    Excellent vid. I’ve become a big fan of IF over the last few months. Have done some extended fasts, and routinely hit 18:6 on most days. This notion that the exact number of IF hours is less critical than the circadian timing makes perfect sense. It also is an easier concept to incorporate into a travel schedule across time zones. Learning to not eat reflexively was one of the hardest lessons. I love food and drink. And we’re healthy eaters, so it’s not like we’re shoveling crap into our bodies. But timing that eating, taking time to enjoy it, and only doing it when we are actually hungry is the key. Social settings and the holidays or other celebrations can complicate that effort, but if you’ve already taught your body to be comfortable with TRF, a brief lapse isn’t irremediable. Keep up the great vids!

    Thanks MIke, I feel my best when my eating window is with the light. I listen to my body and eat as much as I need during day light. As the fall comes it is getting more difficult to not break my fast until day light (I wait to have my coffee after the sun is up). I go for a 30 minute walk right after I wake up before my coffee. Works for me

    I was introduced to you when I was listening to a podcast, either Lewis Howes or Shawn Stevenson. I really appreciated the research data that you shared on the podcast and so I looked you up. I immediately subscribed to your channel. I have been doing one-meal a day from 2-4pm every day for the past 5 years. My weight and size has finally stabilized to where I want to be. I periodically do a 36-hour fast once a month, mostly to kick up autophagy. And I exercise every day early morning, then I take a cold shower 2-3 days a week! That's the most exhilarating part of my week! Thank you for all you do and share with us. Thank you, thank you.

    Growing up working class in the 60s-70s, everybody, and I do mean everybody in my world, ate dinner between five and six. 5:30 was pretty much the usual target. All of my friends were back outside to play by six.
    I just spent over an hour on Google maps trying to find my old neighborhood on Kadena AFB on the island of Okinawa. Couldn't do it! The major landmarks are still there, like the flightline, commissary, and base exchange. But not the schools I went to or the base chapels. Of course nothing looks the same as when you were 7-12. We were so lucky to grow up there. Including the year we lived on Honshu. Japan's main island.

    I've been eating breakfast and lunch in my IF eating schedule for the last 2 years. Went from 33 to 21 BMI, and have healthy blood sugar and blood lipid numbers now. My data is with an N=1, but I definitely feel that what you're talking about in the video matches my experience. BTW, I've been watching videos from the ZOE app group, and the researchers there also mention about eating your last meal early, and I've often heard them mention "circadian rhythm/clock." Great video.

    Even what the naysayers said that breakfast is not the most important meal of the day, I always have had a nutritional big breakfast before starting my IF. I love to have my homecooked breakfast meal w my family members. I managed to drop 18kg+ & able to keep it off! I always learnt through all the health advocates & doctors, but on my own terms & lifestyles to be sustainable. Definitely added 60 deep squats, 120 jumping jacks & some strength training while making breakfast! A must, ACV w two small limes & freshly squeezed lemon w turmeric, cumin Himalayan pink salt & black pepper before eating anything! I'm 60 but honestly, ppl are amazed by the changes they seen on me each time! Thank you for everything I now vehemently practicing! Life definitely gets better after crossing the big 6+!

    Thanks for this. I have ADHD (unmedicated) so i'm always looking for new things to try to improve my circadian health in order to get better sleep. Fasting has proven to be something of a gamechanger for me in other health regards and I've actually done over 1200 hours of fasting since the beginning of June this year. I do however tend to eat later in the day, my last meal usually being around 8 - 9pm. I have delayed sleep phase syndrome due to my ADHD which means my natural sleep pattern is 2am - 9am. I'm going to follow your recommendations and try to get all my eating done by 5 or 6pm and see if it helps. It's something I have never tried, mostly because my DSPS puts my life several hours behind everybody else's.

    Great video and congrats cause you've done a fantastic job by putting together all this research on this topic. This is something that should be basic knowledge in the "experts" community, and instead we still hear fasting gurus suggesting to break the fast, especially in OMAD protocols, with dinner. This is totally wrong. Good to finally see some step forward towards the right way to manage fasting.

It all makes so much sense, but I m so guilty of not being able to put this into practice, just could'd because of so many factors: works, kids, etc. I thought to myself maybe I can do this when I retire and when kids left home, not actually the things that I am looking forward to though.
