In this science-backed episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling explore how your body's internal clock dramatically impacts fasting effectiveness and metabolic health. The hosts reveal research showing that identical meals eaten at different times of day produce completely different blood sugar responses—with evening meals causing 17% higher glucose spikes and 20% lower insulin effectiveness. They explain why shifting your eating window earlier in the day can significantly improve weight loss, even without changing your food choices. The episode offers practical strategies for aligning your fasting schedule with your circadian biology, including morning and evening light exposure tips, consistent sleep patterns, and meal timing adjustments that make fasting more effective. Whether you're struggling with a weight loss plateau or looking to optimize your fasting routine, this episode provides actionable steps to harness your body's natural rhythms for better results.
