" Just stop eating for a period of 12-16 hours before waking time . Once started eating again , the biological clock will be reset as if the beginning of a new day . The body will consider the time to break as early as the next day , " said Clifford Saper , professor of neurology and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School skelaigus heads of departments of neurology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center .
