Watch the full episode on YouTube to explore how circadian rhythms, meal timing, and exercise interact with metabolism and diabetes risk. Prof. Frédéric Gachon and Prof. Olga Pivovarova-Ramich discuss why _when _we eat matters, how chronotype influences insulin sensitivity and body weight, and what current evidence tells us about intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating.
