About This Episode
Dr Elizabeth Thompson sits down with Adriano dos Santos, sleep medicine researcher and circadian biology specialist, for a eye-opening conversation about the scienceof your internal body clock. Adriano argues that many patients are not diagnostic failures but timing failures, and that simple adjustments to when you sleep, eat and live could transform your health.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
• Why you can feel chronically unwell despite normal test results and what circadian misalignment really means
• How every single cell in your body contains its own clock and why this changes everything about how we approach health
• Why when you eat matters just as much as what you eat and how to work with your body's natural rhythms
• Why melatonin starts rising as early as 6pm and what you could be doing in the evening that is silently sabotaging your sleep
• Why the direction of light in your home matters and the simple lamp switch that could transform your sleep
• How your gut bacteria directly influence your brain's ability to produce calming neurotransmitters that help you sleep
• The everyday habits backed by hard science that support better sleep, from dimming lights to gratitude journaling
