gut health and sleep go hand in hand. the quality and quantity of sleep we get impacts the way in which your gut microbes work and those microbes impact your sleep – so to put it simply, sleep affects microbes, microbes affect sleep.
Your internal body clock, AKA your circadian rhythm, responds to light and dark and regulates physical and mental processes that occur at different times.
Fascinatingly, your gut microbes work on a similar clock and have different functions during the day and at night but a lot of that depends on your own body clock and if you start going to bed at crazy times, it can disrupt your delicate community of microbes.
