"Pressing Health"- health news that's fresh off the press
New research from the NIH found that women who are exposed to artificial light during sleep, whether it be from TV or a turned-on light, have a higher risk of becoming obese. The research included more than 43,000 women and spanned over 5 and a half years. The not only found it can lead to obesity, but also large amounts of light in a participant's sleep environment led to a higher BMI and waist to hip ratio. Sleep durations were also shorter and healthy eating choices were also lower in these individuals. You may want to start turning off the TV and making sure your room is dark before falling asleep.
