The Claim
Jiao-tai-wan administration in partially sleep-deprived rats significantly reduces body weight gain and food intake, improves insulin sensitivity, reduces systemic inflammation, and is associated with increased expression of the circadian clock genes Cry1 and Cry2 in the hypothalamus, liver, and adipose tissue, suggesting a potential role for circadian regulation in metabolic health under sleep stress.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Giving a traditional herbal remedy called Jiao-tai-wan to sleep-deprived rats helps them gain less weight, eat less, and become more sensitive to insulin, while also calming down body-wide inflammation — and this might be because it boosts certain body clock genes in key organs.

What the research says
1 studyThis study found that a traditional herbal remedy called Jiao-tai-wan helped sleepy rats eat less, gain less weight, and become more sensitive to insulin—all because it boosted the activity of two body clock genes that help regulate metabolism.
