Sleeping on the lights increases women's risk of obesity, study says

Researchers following nearly 44,000 women in the U.Sconcluded that exposure to light at night has a direct impact on melatonin production, disrupting sleep and disrupting circadian rhythms, which can lead to weight gain and obesity, EFE reported On June 10These women have a habit of turning on the lights or sleeping on the TV" night time exposure to artificial light affects sleep quality, which in turn affects eating and physical activity"The study says, "I'm not going to be there The report was co-authored by epidemiologist Dale Sandler and colleaguesreported that it had previously been shown that exposure to artificial light at night affected the biological clock gene, which altered the dietary behavior of the experimental miceto test the human impact of this habit, the researchers used data from a large-scale research project, Sister Studies, conducted between July 2003 and March 2009 on the U.Sfemale population between the ages of 35 and 74studies have shown that women who are exposed to outdoor artificial light (such as street lights) and indoor artificial light (e.gTV screen light) during sleep at night have a waist circumference of 41.6 to 50.5 percent longer than those who sleep without any lightspecifically, 62.4 percent of women exposed to outdoor artificial light during night's sleep had a body mass index (BMI) greater than 25.0 and were considered overweightOnce it exceeds 30.0 is obeseAnd those who slept exposed to indoor artificial light had a BMI of more than 25.0in addition, exposure to artificial light while sleeping at night may be an indicator of "socio-economic disadvantage or unhealthy habits," which in turn can lead to weight gain,reported.
