15. Circadian Rhythm

Dec 2015

The only problem with circadian rhythm getting recognition is that it seems some are trying to treat it with medication and not telling kids and others to change their eating habits and lifestyles. I saw an ad promoting a drug that could correct the circadian rhythm. The person in the ad was supposedly blind and that was the cause of the disruption of their circadian rhythm; however, how many people will see that ad, realize they have the same symptoms, and then ask to be given the same drug.
