WE ARE REDEFINING "TIME".Timeshifter has built the world’s first circadian technology platform for optimizing human performance, safety, and health. Timeshifter translates sleep and circadian neuroscience into technology-based solutions to improve the safety, health, and performance of billions of people.The circadian clock controls almost every biological system in our bodies, from our sleep-wake cycle, mood and performance patterns to our metabolic, immune, and reproductive systems. Most people are aware of the importance of sleep (the sleep economy has reached nearly $500 billion per year). However, our circadian system is less understood, even though it controls sleep and almost every biological system in our bodies – including the heart, metabolism, reproductive and immune functions – with significant implications for our performance and our health.THE NEW FRONTIER IN PERFORMANCE, HEALTH, AND MEDICINE:By knowing our circadian time, and being able to control it, we can live our best and most productive lives. We can minimize jet lag and bring back those lost days. We can manage changing work schedules better to reduce fatigue and improve health. We can prepare to be at our best when needed, even when we would otherwise not be at our physical or mental peak. Soon, we’ll also be able to use circadian time to time our medication better, based on our internal circadian time rather than arbitrary clock time, and prepare our body for medical treatments to improve clinical outcomes, or reduce side-effects. At Timeshifter, we are leading the way in making all of this possible. We are integrating circadian time into your everyday life.https://www.timeshifter.com/
