function works. There are many times we often are on the go and don't have the time to eat or even times
where as society we forget to eat. As we grow fond and older , we often have gotten told that eating
healthy foods and getting proper rest can help, bodily joint functions, immunity, etc. Often in society we
never understand how eating during late hours affect you as an individual. In this article the overall
concept from this article is how the influx of food at different times throughout the day affect sleep in
which sleep plays a role in our learning and memory. In this article it states that the (SCN)
suprachiasmatic nucleus is unaltered, however, there are other parts of the brain that effect these
inconsistent feed times. A study conducted by multiple scientists explained how people were finding it
difficult between sleep and the time to consume food.
Scientist wanted to know how misaligned feeding times didn't alter the suprachiasmatic, but it does
impact the hippocampus LTP and CREB Expression. Throughout the experiment there were times in
which the mice in this experiment were restricted to eat. Doing this so they can see the effects of
cognition of the brain.
In the experiment, they used male mice putting them on cycles that got them acclimated to their
environment. Researchers measured each different mouse by putting them in separate cages to
differentiate the mouse but also manipulate behavior. The researchers found that misaligned mice in the
experiment caught up to the aligned mouse in daily food consumption.
