Introduction
While many sleep strategies focus on behavior, Dr. Faye Lin, an endocrinologist and circadian rhythm researcher, argues that true rest begins at the hormonal level. Her Hormone Clock Protocol aims to realign the body’s melatonin, cortisol, and growth hormone cycles—unlocking deep, consistent sleep through hormonal synergy.
The Endocrine Connection
“Most people think of melatonin as a sleep aid,” Dr. Lin says. “But it’s just one actor in a complex hormonal ballet.” Her protocol addresses the full cast—including cortisol regulation in the morning and growth hormone spikes at night.
Timed Living, Timed Sleeping
Using lifestyle syncing tools (like meal timing, light exposure, and blood sugar stability), Lin’s clients often reduce wake-ups and sleep latency within two weeks. “You don’t need sleeping pills,” she says. “You need to live in rhythm.”
From Hormones to Habits
Her system is being piloted in endocrinology clinics and corporate wellness programs. “You don’t fix sleep at night—you start in the morning,” Lin adds.
