Supposedly genetics plays a part in whether someone is a night owl or early riser. Ive always been in the night owl camp, however an interesting experience I have had was when I went on a full 4 day water fast. By day 2, my circadian rhythm completely reset and My 12-8 sleeping schedule became 9-5. As soon as the fast was broken with a dinner around 7pm, I became wide awake beyond 12a rether than getting tired at 9p. Dr satchin Panda has been researching body clocks and food and has pointed out that the ingestion of food starts the liver’s clock and kicks off bodily processes tbat start the clock. So it seems that food plays a very large environmental role in our sleep schedule.
