New study and good article over at caloriesproper:
http://caloriesproper.com/artificial-light-regulates-fat-mass-no-bueno/
Translation: don’t go into a caloric deficit or try to lose weight until AFTER you’ve done everything possible to improve circadian rhythms —– get plenty of sleep, don’t skip or delay breakfast in the morning, wear blue blockers at night, sunlight all day (or a bright light device if necessary). If these boxes aren’t checked PRIOR TO your weight loss efforts, then more muscle and less fat is lost; so even if you start paying attention to circadian rhythms later in the game, you’re already significantly handicapped.
