'Science suggests it’s not just blue light that’s problematic for circadian rhythms and metabolic health; insufficient daylight and most artificial light in the evening time are driving chronic disease in developed countries.

Being in the car or wearing sunglasses does not count. 13:15 Minimize exposure in the 3 hours prior to your sleep time to just 10 lux measured at the eye. A candle releases about 1 lux. Your phone is about 50 lux. 14:25 Sleep environment maximum ambient light exposure is 1 lux. 15:40 Just 5 lux during sleep has been shown to have significant increases in a myriad of cardiovascular biomarkers. 16:10 Light affects the rate at which you age at a cellular level.'
