Chronotherapy

Quick summary of the science :

The  activities of the human body, from metabolism to gene expression, don’t run at the same speed or intensity throughout the day. Biochemical reaction rates cycle through peaks and low troughs, driven in large part by the body’s internal clock as well as individual clocks in different tissues. A growing body of research suggests that synchronizing “treatments” with a patient’s body clock improves both the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. Chronotherapy focuses on administering interventions at the ideal time.
