Fall Time Change & Your Circadian Rhythm

Food & Your Body Clock

Our circadian system isn't only connected to sleep. Eating patterns and meal timing are also signals that interact with the body's daily rhythms.

Aim for relatively consistent meal times and avoid making your largest meal right before bedtime.

What time do you usually eat dinner?

Fall Time Change & Your Circadian Rhythm

Keep Your Wake Time Consistent

A consistent wake time can help reinforce a regular sleep schedule.

Try waking around the same time each morning, including weekends, while allowing enough time for adequate sleep.

Are you a consistent wake-up person or a weekend sleeper?

Fall Time Change & Your Circadian Rhythm

Dim the Lights at Night

Light exposure in the evening can influence the body's sleep-wake signals.

Try dimming household lights in the evening and reducing bright screens close to bedtime.

Fall Time Change & Your Circadian Rhythm

Morning Light Is Powerful

Morning light is an important environmental signal for the body's circadian system.

Try getting outside for a morning walk, drinking your coffee near a bright window, or simply spending a few minutes outdoors after waking.

☀️ What's your favorite way to get outside in the morning?

Fall Time Change & Your Circadian Rhythm

Why Does the Time Change Affect Us?

Our bodies have an internal circadian rhythm that responds to light, darkness, meals, activity, and sleep schedules. A sudden change in the clock can temporarily disrupt that routine.

Start thinking about your sleep schedule before the time change rather than trying to adjust overnight.

Does the time change usually affect your sleep?

Preparing Your Immune System for Cold & Flu Season

Don't Forget Your Gut

The gastrointestinal tract and immune system are closely connected. A varied diet containing fiber-rich plant foods can support a diverse gut microbiome.

Try adding fermented foods or fiber-rich foods that you tolerate well, such as vegetables, berries, chia seeds, flax, or legumes.

What's your favorite fermented food?

Preparing Your Immune System for Cold & Flu Season

Hydration Still Matters When It's Cold

It's easy to drink less water when the weather cools down because we're not sweating as much. But hydration remains important year-round.

Keep a water bottle nearby, drink water with meals, and consider warm herbal tea as another way to increase fluid intake.

Are you better at staying hydrated in the summer or winter?

Vitamin D & the Changing Seasons

As daylight decreases during fall and winter, our opportunities for sun exposure may also decrease. Vitamin D status is something individuals can discuss with their healthcare provider, particularly when risk factors for deficiency are present.

Take advantage of daylight by spending some time outdoors during the day whenever possible.

☀️ How much time do you typically spend outside during the day?
