1.2 Body clockIntroductionThere is a complex system of timekeepingwithin us. Chronobiology is a field of biologythat studies periodic/ cyclic phenomenon inliving organisms. [4] It is a field that has seensignificant development in the last 30 years.Chronobiologists have extensively studied ourbiological clocks and how our physiologyfunctions in sync with it.External and internal clocks control ourphysical, mental and emotional functionswithout the need for our interference. But themore we attune our lives to the rhythms , themore benefits we can reap. This knowledge isof even more importance for disease andhealing. [5]Three Basic Biological Rhythms [5]Infradian RhythmsRhythms that last more than 24 hours andrepeats every few days, months or once peryear is an Infradian Rhythm.Eg: Menstrual cycleUltradian RhythmsRhythms that are shorter than 24hours. Theserhythms have multiple cycles in a day. Theyregulate physical, emotional and spiritualfunctions and often last over several hours.Eg: ingestion of food, blood circulation,secretion of hormones, different stages ofsleep, human performance curve.Circadian RhythmThese are rhythms that take approximately 24hours. The key function of the circadian rhythmis to regulate timely period of tiredness andwakefulness .This is extensively studied as its affect onhuman beings are direct and immediate.These rhythms are governed by internalbiological clocks. Every cell in our body ownthese clocks that are programmed to turn onand off thousands of genes. And thesesystem of internal clock is regulated by a groupof 20,000 neurons in the brain calledSuprachiasmatic nucleus. [6]Suprachiasmatic Nucleus sits in thehypothalamus- right above the optic chiasm(where optic nerves from both eyes cross).Therefore it takes in the light cues to entrainour body to the environment. All the cues thatentrain the circadian rhythm are calledZeitgeber. They are capable of drasticallyaltering the internal rhythms.28Nileena Rajan | Product Design | M.Des
