Protect Your Heart
During Heart Health Month, let’s discuss the connection between migraines and hot flashes and how the underlying causes of these annoying symptoms may increase risks for cardiometabolic conditions like heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.

Chronotype Identity, Inspired by Hozier
Are you more like Hozier’s lyrics, going to bed at 3:00 am, or the couple asleep early? The chronotypes of the early bird, a night owl, or somewhere in between, are formed through sociocultural influences, family dynamic, and habitual patterns over time. These tendencies carry a perceived association. The late-night person may be seen as easy-going and open to adventure, while the early riser may be viewed as more rigid and conforming.
A chronotype defines the timing of sleep, waking hours, and food and beverage consumption. Chronotype is linked to circadian rhythms and physiological functions in the body. Early birds may have some advantages over night owls regarding long-term health outcomes.
