The latest study of Mamat University in Australia has shown that lighting in light at night increases the risk of type 2 diabetes. The direct reason for this is to disturb the sleep and waking bicycle due to artificial lighting. In this, not only the blue light emanating from the device like smartphone, tablet is the main responsible, but the yellow lights coming out of the lamps are also a threat to the people. Study says that the risk of developing Kind 2 diabetes can increase considerably by coming into contact with artificial light at night, especially between midnight to 6:00 am.
University researchers studied about 85,000 people between the ages of 40 and 69 for nine years and monitored their light contact through the device worn in the wrist. It found a strong relationship between light contact and development of type 2 diabetes at night. The risk of developing the disease was 67 percent higher in the top 10 percent of the top 10 percent of the people who are exposed to light at night. This relationship remained even after taking into account factors such as sleep duration and overall health routine.
Although the study does not prove the cause and effects, but it suggests that the artificial light disrupts the body’s natural sleep-jagging bicycle and it directly affects the man’s metabolism. This can be caused by smartphone and blue light emanating from TV, as well as yellow light coming out of the reading lamp.
In the report, the study -linked headwriter said, “Avoiding nightlight is a simple and cost -effective advice that can help reduce the global burden of type 2 diabetes.”
The study in the study is not taken into consideration, which could affect the level of blood sugar and socio -economic factors were considered only on regional basis. In addition, individual sensitivity to lights vary greatly. Currently, in order to strengthen the relationship between light and diabetes, there is a need for future and intensive study, but these conclusions suggest that limiting screen time before bedtime and getting good sleep is beneficial for health.
Take care of these things:-
Although the researchers in the study have not directly told the points that you can take care of your health, but if there is a direct connection to light and diabetes, then we are telling you some points here, which you should take special care of.
Do not use a smartphone or other device after entering the bed
Reduce the use of smartphones, tablets and computers at least one hour before bedtime.
Use blue light filter
To reduce exposure, turn on the blue light filter on your device. Most of the brands give this feature built-in in their software and if you want, you will find many such free apps on the app store, which allows to reduce blue lights.
Maintain a deep sleep atmosphere
Use black curtains to prevent external lights or you can also use sleep masks.
Choose red or orange night light
If you need nightlight, red or orange light is a good option, which has a less effect on your sleep than blue or white light.
Create a fixed routine for sleep
You can choose a special time for sleep and if you try to sleep at the same time every day, you will start feeling sleepy every day. In this way you can get long sleep.
