Sleep and Circadian Rhythm

Regenerative treatment may improve sleep when chronic inflammation disrupts nervous-system function. Extensive stem-cell and exosome treatment was associated with improved sleep metrics beginning about two weeks later in one reported outcome. The article says sleep is when growth hormone is released. Inflammation and circadian rhythms are chemically connected. Preoperative sleep optimization is considered very important because surgery stresses the body. Chronically inadequate sleep is said to suppress growth hormone and impair fat metabolism. Insufficient sleep is presented as a physiological stressor. Daytime sleep can disrupt circadian hormone secretion even when total sleep duration is adequate.
