Circadian rhythms: Professor Satchin Panda

Don’t Tell Me The Score - A podcast by BBC Radio 4 - Thursdays

How our circadian rhythms impact our athletic performance, mood and overall health. Dr Panda is Professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Sciences in California – and a leading expert in the field. He argues that developing a robust circadian rhythm is one of the best things you can do to protect yourself against Covid – and in this episode he explains exactly how you can. He reveals how athletic performance can vary by as much as 26% in the course of a day – and how some top teams are using that to their advantage when playing matches away from home. @simonmundie
