Tag: Daytime healing

According to a study in *Science Translational Medicine*, wounds sustained during the day healed nearly 60% faster than those at night. Your internal body clock, or circadian rhythm, heavily influences what time of day does the body heal, dictating when cellular repair is most efficient.

Research suggests that burn injuries sustained at night can take significantly longer to heal than those that happen during the day, underscoring the body's internal clock's role in recovery. This raises a key question: **does your body heal when you're awake**, and how does it compare to repair during sleep?
