Week 7 on MyCircadianClock Journey

It's week 7 already on the mycircadianclock research journey. For me it's been 5 weeks as the first fourteen days was the baseline period. Basically the app tracks one's average sleep, eating pattern, activity and other health tracking. The research duration is 14 weeks, but one can still continue. The importance of this research to me mainly is to determine if I can use time restricted eating to maintain my weight. 

With the pandemic, I got throne off balance but will definitely get back to sharing more on this.

Introduction to my circadianclock journey

My name is Asalele, I just turned 40  in May, I am a Malawian (African) woman, married with 3 children, who are 16, 14 and 4 years old. My family and I  currently live in Dakar, Senegal since 6 years ago because of my husband's job.

And why did I choose to write about my journey about it? It is a study that is sponsored by the Salk Institute for Biolo

Taking My life Back

  It has been over a year since I've shared an update on my health journey, particularly in line with my circadian clock. Covid-19 has changed our world, and I feel like its implications insidiously affected me emotionally and physiologically. As a result, I have struggled with my health, hormonally and weight wise. This year I am 41 and the hormonal changes are becoming more apparent, though not quite there. I recently started using a bio-identical natural progesterone cream to balance my hormones as I have been experiencing hormonal imbalances. I'm also on a few health supplements, of which details I'll share further blogs.                                                                                                              From this month of December, I reflected closely on my health and made a decision to take some steps in a direction that will enable me to live a more vibrant life as I undergo changes through my 40s. I am still passionate abo
