Circadian Rhythms Are the Missing Link in Your Health Plan | SNH Podcast #130

Author: Health Optimization Medicine and Practice July 2, 2025 Duration: 37:34

In this live round-table episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Boomer Anderson sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Jodi Duval, and Dr. Allen Bookatz to explore how syncing your biology with circadian rhythms may be more powerful than any 3-day fast. From defining ultradian and infradian rhythms to tackling jet lag, hormone timing, and shift work, the team shares clinical stories and practical tactics you can use to reset your internal clock and optimize recovery, metabolism, and mood.

Join us as we delve into:

  • Why circadian rhythm alignment may be more effective than prolonged fasting

  • The science of sleep anchoring, Zeitgebers, and peripheral clocks

  • How your sleep, hormones, and hunger cues are dictated by light and food timing

  • Simple tools to reset your rhythms—even after sleep debt or night shifts

This episode is for you if:

  • You're struggling with brain fog, low energy, or poor sleep despite "getting 8 hours"

  • You want to learn practical tools for syncing your biology to light and food

  • You're a night shift worker, traveler, or new parent trying to reset your rhythm

  • You believe that healthspan starts with consistent daily habits—not heroic interventions
