Body's Food Clock Upset By Holiday Overindulgence

Now you have it.

The reason why people overeat the remaining 362.25 days of the year.
Overindulgence during this feasting season can play havoc with the human body's food clock, researchers from the University of California, San Francisco reported in PNAS (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences).

Overeating, changing sleeping patterns, and significant changes in eating habits over the holiday period can upset the body's "food clock", a collection of genes and molecules that interact with one another and keep the human body on a metabolic even keel.
The solution?

Overindulge when it is not the holidays.

There, I fixed it.
