Having meals at timed intervals could help to reset the body clock.
Circadian rhythms are, in turn, governed by so-called master clocks in our brains. The "master clock" is, in fact, a group of intercommunicating nerve cells in the brain, located in an area known as the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN).
The SCN has approximately 20,000 neurons and can be found in the brain's hypothalamus, which is a larger brain area that controls body temperature, hunger, and thirst.
