Explore the science and strategy behind meal timing with Nancy Clark’s insightful article. Delve into how and when you eat can significantly affect your health and athletic performance. Understand the role of circadian rhythms in metabolism and learn practical tips for organizing your meals to support a healthier lifestyle.

Quotes to ponder:
"Food consumption affects the central clock in your brain. This clock controls circadian rhythms and impacts all aspects of metabolism, including how your organs function."
"Meals can be a central part of our social life - and busy training schedules can contribute to chaotic eating patterns - many athletes disregard the fact that food is more than just fuel."
"Restricting daytime food and eating in chaotic patterns disrupts normal biological rhythms. The end result: erratic meal timing can impact the development of cardiovascular disease, type-2 diabetes, and obesity."
