Highlights
This public policy article establishes circadian time of nutrient consumption as a working science to feasibly prevent and manage diabetes
The science of eating timing stems from the principle that the circadian evolutionary nature of human life has led to development of almost 24-h rhythms in cell physiology and function [1,2,3]
Metabolism extent and rate differ substantively during different hours of the 24-h period that are independent from food intake per se [4,5,6]
Summary
This public policy article establishes circadian time of nutrient consumption as a working science to feasibly prevent and manage diabetes. Almost all scientific efforts have focused on managing daily quantity and quality of nutrient intake in programming public nutrition and health. A very significant applied science, incrementally emerging recently, is timing of eating different nutrients over the 24-h period.
