Abstract:
The timing of food intake is vital for metabolic health in obesity. A recent study in mice from Hepler et al. in Science shows the importance of the adipocyte circadian clock in metabolic health, highlighting the creatine pathway and thermogenesis with the alignment of the timing of high-fat feeding.
