BEST TIME OF DAY

Health offers the best time of day to:

Exercise -- In the early morning
Belgian researchers found that working out before breakfast helps the body burn fat more efficiently.

Buckle down at work -- Before 10am
Use that quiet time at the beginning of the day to finish up your big project, and schedule those chatty meetings midday: According to research from Penn State, most people are more easily distracted later, between noon and 4pm.

Take a nap -- Between 1pm and 3pm
During this time most people's core temperature drops and melatonin levels rise, signaling it's time for a temporary recharge explains Michael Breus, Ph.D., a sleep specialist and the author of The Power of When.

Have a drink -- After work
The enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase is most active in the evening, so you'll process the alcohol in your cocktail more efficiently.

Get it on -- Before bed
Researchers at the University of Warsaw in Poland surveyed women and found their libidos were generally highest between 6 p.m. and midnight, regardless of whether they were a morning or evening person.
