Some interesting work in the Czech Republic:

Normalizing effect of bright light therapy on temperature circadian rhythm in patients with eating disorders

CONCLUSION: The light therapy normalized temperature circadian rhythm in patient with eating disorders. We hypothesize that the light therapy can also contribute to improvement of pathological eating pattern because of the functional connections between light and food entrained oscillators. The light may help to restore the irregular circadian rhythmicity induced by chaotic food intake.
