2 LITTERATURE REVIEW 2.3.1 Biological Clock All living things have an innate cycle that somehow is consistent with the rotation of the earth, as this has been observed in living organisms, ani- mals, plants and humans. This ~24-hour sleep/wake cycle is controlled by hormones in the brain and is one of the biological rhythms human beings experience in daily life [section 2.3.1]. As numerous biological activities are programmed to rise and fall, in humans, animals and plants, these rhythmic patterns seem to play an important role in health and the ability to keep time. (Mehta and Cheng, 2013) These rhythmic patterns are popularly re- ferred to as circadian rhythms [section 2.3], as they are repeating approxi- mately every 24 hours. (Figure 2) Disturbance in the biological rhythms can cause biological rhythm disorder and may be connected to major non-seasonal depression, including symp- toms like: Anxiety, daytime sleepiness, depression, lower performance at work, being more accident-prone, lack of mental alertness and an increased risk for diabetes and obesity.
