Introduction to chronobiology:

Healing in harmony with the inner clock

Our knowledge of the actions of protective plant compounds is becoming more and more precise; dozens of substances are now being utilized to create formulations with truly specific objectives. During this process, scientists have learned that it's particularly important when and in what combination these substances are introduced into the body.  “Chronotherapy”, a discipline based on the science of chronobiology, utilizes this groundbreaking concept, administering therapeutic substances in harmony with the body's inner clock. In chronotherapy, a complex set of criteria determines the best time of the day for achieving the greatest effect with the smallest dose, while also promoting optimal synergy between the different substances being administered.  

A complex set of criteria determines the best time of the day for achieving the greatest effect with the smallest dose, while also promoting  optimal synergy between the different substances being administered.  

Chronotherapy can be a decisive factor in assisting the body at exactly the time the assistance will have the greatest effect, enhancing the efficiency of treatment and reducing the chance of unwanted side effects.

Chronotherapy has four principles:

• the optimal substance
• the right quantity
• the selected target organ
• the most effective time of day

The recent anti-aging movement has a lofty goal:  it strives to modify biological processes in the human body that were put in place over millions of years. Each tissue and organ has a predetermined life span, and the evolutionary history of the human body’s aging processes is extremely long. That being said, it now seems more possible than ever that great strides will be made to significantly slow or even stop these processes within the next few decades.
