Your circadian rhythm holds one of the most underrated fat-loss methods on Earth.

Used right, it burns fat, fixes sleep, and eliminates late-night cravings and yet no one talks about it.

So, I started researching its health benefits…

What I discovered will blow your mind: 🧵 Image
Image
Here’s what shocked me:

The same 600-calorie meal at 8AM → fuels energy but at 11PM → fuels fat storage.

And that changes everything…
We’ve all been told weight loss = calories in vs. calories out.

And yes, calories matter but new research shows when you eat can be just as important as what you eat.
Your body runs on a circadian rhythm which is like an internal 24-hour clock that controls:

· Hormones
· Digestion
· Metabolism

It evolved for food in the day, fasting at night.

Here’s where it gets interesting…
Insulin sensitivity is highest in the morning and lowest at night.

· Morning carbs → energy + fuel
· Night carbs → fat storage + poor sleep

Same food but different results. Image
In one study:

Two groups ate the same calories.

The only difference? Meal timing.

The “late eaters” gained more fat, had higher blood sugar, and worse sleep… even though calories were identical.
It doesn’t stop at fat gain.

Late-night eating raises cortisol, disrupts melatonin, and wrecks deep sleep.

Poor sleep → more hunger hormones → stronger cravings the next day.

It’s a vicious cycle.
This is why willpower never works.

If you’re eating against your circadian clock, your biology is primed to crave more food.

Now let’s talk about what happens when you work in favor of your body:
P.S. I have a free 5-day free course that shows you how to beat cravings, lose fat, and fix your eating rhythm.

It’s called the Sacred Body Reset. Join 200+ other readers here (it’s free)↓

When you align with circadian eating, you’ll benefit from:

· Faster fat loss
· Fewer cravings
· Deeper sleep
· Higher energy
· Balanced hormones

So here are 5 simple ways to reset your eating rhythm:
1. Get 8 hours of sleep
2. Avoid eating for 1 hour after you wake up
3. Time restricted eating
4. Get daily sunlight for 30 minutes
5. Exercise daily for 30 minutes
6. Avoid food & bright light 3 hours before sleeping
Again, calories matter and so do timing.

Eat in rhythm with your biology → fat loss, better sleep, fewer cravings.

The simplest fat-loss hack is built into your DNA.
If you struggle with:

· Burning fat
· Constant fatigue
· Getting quality sleep

The Sacred Body Reset might be exactly what you need to finally break free from bad habits.

50 years ago, people were leaner and stronger without counting calories or hitting the gym.

Then something changed in the late 20th century, and muscle mass started dropping while obesity increased.

No, it wasn’t because of less exercise…

Here’s what really happened: 🧵
In the 1960s - 1970s, the average American got ~14–15% of their calories from protein.

Now, that’s fallen to ~12%.

It might sound small but it triggered a change in your body so powerful that most people don’t even realize it’s controlling them right now.

Here’s why… Image
There’s a concept called the Protein Leverage Hypothesis.

It says your body has a strong biological drive to get enough protein.

If your diet is low in protein, you’ll overeat carbs & fats until your protein target is hit.

Result? More calories than you need.

You can eat less, exercise more, and STILL not lose fat.

Because fat loss is controlled by one hormone almost no one talks about.

It’s not insulin, not cortisol, and it’s something you’ve probably never heard of...

Here’s what it is, and how to fix it (science proven): 🧵 Image
The hormone is called leptin.

It’s your body's fat loss thermostat.

It tells your brain how much energy you've stored as body fat and when leptin is working well, your brain keeps you lean.

However, when it’s broken, fat loss becomes almost impossible.

Here’s how it works: Image
· Fat cells produce leptin
· Leptin travels to your brain (hypothalamus)

Your brain uses leptin to regulate:

Hunger, Metabolic rate, Energy output, and Fat storage
It’s the master regulator of body fat.

But most overweight people don’t have a leptin deficiency…

This is Dr. Ted Naiman.

A physician who helped fix obesity for hundreds of patients using one simple formula:

Protein to energy ratio.

After decades of treating people, here’s how it works, and how it can help you lose fat without starving yourself: 🧵 Image
A quick note:

This isn’t another “eat clean and lift weights” thread. It’s about a biological truth most people have never heard:

We eat until our body gets enough protein.

That one idea explains 90% of your cravings, weight gain, and failed diets.

Here’s how it works:
You eat “healthy.”
You skip dessert.
You train hard.

But you’re still gaining fat, or can’t lose it.

Dr. Ted Naiman’s research explains why: Your body will overeat energy (carbs + fats) to hit its protein target.

That’s the trap.

Saunas are one of the most underrated fat-loss tools on Earth.

Used regularly, they help with fat loss, boost longevity, and improve heart health — yet most people ignore them.

There’s a reason ancient cultures swore by saunas.

Here’s what the science says (it’s shocking): 🧵
Most people think saunas are just for “sweating and relaxing.”

But the effects go way deeper.

A single sauna session can increase growth hormone by up to 500% — helping with fat loss, muscle repair, and anti-aging.

And that’s just the beginning.
Here’s what’s happening in your body:

Heat stress → triggers heat shock proteins → improves mitochondrial function, reduces inflammation, and burns calories.

At the same time, heart rate increases to 100–150 bpm — like moderate cardio.

You’re literally mimicking a workout.

This is Alan Aragon.

One of the most trusted nutrition experts alive.

He’s coached Olympians, written textbooks, and debunked diet myths for 30+ years.

I studied his podcast with Andrew Huberman —Twice.

That completely changed how I think about fat loss

Here are 7 takeaways: Image
1. Fasted cardio is overrated.

You don’t burn more fat in the long run by skipping breakfast before training.

What matters most is total energy balance.

If that surprised you, this next one is even more important:

It’s the foundation of all fat loss…
2. Caloric deficit = fat loss.

Doesn’t matter if it’s keto, low-carb, or intermittent fasting.

If you're not in a deficit, you're not losing fat.

Simple doesn’t mean easy.

So what can make it easier?

Fasting can activate some of the body’s most powerful healing processes

It allows your body to rest, repair, and naturally clean out what it no longer needs.

It’s literally a built-in healing system

Here's how to fast correctly (backed by science): 🧵
Before we start, just note:

Fasting isn’t just skipping meals. It’s a biological trigger.

When done right, it activates autophagy — your body’s way of cleaning out damaged cells and making space for new ones.

This is what real cellular healing looks like.

So what is fasting actually…..?
It’s an intentional break from eating.

The most common method?

Intermittent fasting — usually a 16:8 window (16 hrs fast, 8 hrs eating).

No calories during the fast.

Just water, black coffee, or tea. Image
