Research Abstract |
Circadian clock is entrained by light as well as by fixed feeding. In this project we asked which mealtime is key for entrainment, and what kind of food is good entrainment. Breakfast (feeding after long-long starvation) rather than other mealtimes could entrain the liver clock. Among nutrients of food, easily digestible cornstarch had stronger entraining force through high insulin secretion. The preset results suggest us digestible starch for breakfast is good maintenance of circadian rhythm.
