The Circadian Code

Lose Weight, Supercharge Your Energy, and Transform Your Health from Morning to Midnight
by Satchin Panda, PhD | Rodale Books © 2020 · 288 pages

Satchin Panda is one of the world’s leading researchers in the field of circadian biology. This book is a FANTASTIC distillation of what he and his colleagues have discovered and how we can apply those insights to our modern lives. I highly recommend it. Want to, as per the sub-title of the book, “lose weight, supercharge your energy, and transform your health?” Then pay attention to your body’s infinitely wise internal clock!! As Dr. Panda tells us: “The Circadian Code is a revolution in the way you think about diet, exercise, work, learning, and technology. Instead of counting calories or limiting food choices, you will learn that there is a right time to eat so that you can actually burn calories while you sleep. There is also a best time of day to exercise, to work, and to rest. Your body already knows this code: you just have to become aware of it and then follow its rhythm.” I’m excited to share some of my favorite Big Ideas so let’s jump straight in!

Addressing the circadian clock is more than a diet. In fact, it’s not a diet at all. It’s a lifestyle. It begins with knowing when to eat and when to turn off the lights. Just paying attention to those small parts of your day will go a long way toward preventing and delaying disease.

“The observations I have made over the past twenty years, along with my colleagues and other researchers in the tiny field of circadian biology, are radically changing the way we understand how both the body and the mind optimally function. The science of circadian rhythms is actually a multidisciplinary field that includes biologists, exercise physiologists, mathematicians, psychologists, sleep researchers, nutritionists, endocrinologists, ophthalmologists, geneticists, oncologists, and more. Working together, we have found that simply adjusting the timing of how we live—and making easy lifestyle changes—is the secret to restoring our rhythm, and it will surely be the next revolution in health care. I invite you to learn what I have uncovered through my own research and through working with the best minds in each of these fields. I call this the circadian code, and by adopting these lessons you will make small changes to the way you sleep, eat, work, learn, exercise, and light up your home that will make a profound difference in every aspect of your health. In fact, the benefits you’ll reap can be far more effective and long-lasting than any medication or special diet.”
