Abstract in brief

  • Obesity rates are rising sharply in industrialized societies, and sleep patterns, especially social jetlag—the mismatch between our biological clock and social schedules—play a role in this trend.
  • The biological clock influences sleep and energy regulation; disruptions due to social jetlag can lead to chronic sleep loss and may contribute to weight gain and obesity.
  • The study suggests that aligning social schedules more closely with our natural biological rhythms could help reduce obesity rates, highlighting the importance of considering circadian health in policy decisions like Daylight Saving Time and work hours.]

仕事の日はしっかり寝ていても休みの日だけ夜更かしするというのも、体は時差ボケと認識します。 まあ、休みの日に夜更かしするのは楽しいですが程々に

It is estimated that 70% of students and workers experience at least one hour of social jet lag. Nearly half of them experience two hours or more. https://t.co/If62qyPk1z

6) Greater eating #jetlag (https://t.co/MlwSlF7phH) & greater social jetlag (https://t.co/9GJYcWIqFZ) are associated with worse health outcomes (e.g. higher #BMI). Thus, a reduction in eating jetlag & a shorter eating window may possibly have some beneficial health effects.
