In the elaborate ballet of biological processes that keep the body ticking, the duty of clock genes is an efficiency vital to recognizing how our bodies work optimally. These genetics, important to the circadian rhythms that regulate our 24-hour organic cycles, have a profound impact on our metabolic rate, influencing everything from how we process foods to exactly how we control power. This interesting interplay in between our genetic makeup and our metabolic processes sheds light on why some people could be evening owls, overflowing with power when the moon is high, while others are very early birds, capturing the worm at dawn. The impact of clock genetics goes beyond just influencing our sleep-wake cycles
