Yes, circadian rhythms actually do affect almost everything

Jay C Dunlap et al. Cell Res. 2016 Jul.

Abstract

Circadian rhythms in the level of intracellular Mg appear to be widely conserved phylogenetically, and have the potential to impact nearly all aspects of metabolism. Moreover, the clock regulates the ion channels that generate the rhythm, demonstrating that the whole cell operates as a circadian system.
