  • Research conducted over the last 40 years has found a strong link between health problems and disruption of the human circadian system [ 12 , 13 ], which regulates our bodily processes like sleeping by producing circadian rhythms that basically signal the body to do the right things at the right times. (cdc.gov)
  • Because the human circadian system runs on a cycle that, for most people, is slightly longer than the solar day, it must be continually synchronized to keep the right things happening at the right times. (cdc.gov)
  • Although several properties of light are known to influence the timing of the circadian system [ 14 , 15 ], a key property for our study is a light source's spectral composition, or its wavelength. (cdc.gov)
  • Short-wavelength light is the most-effective of all light sources for stimulating the circadian system, perhaps best visualized as the blue light of the morning sky that energizes us for the coming day. (cdc.gov)
  • Long-wavelength light, on the other hand, has negligible effects on the circadian system and is perhaps best visualized as the red sky at twilight that is followed by sleep. (cdc.gov)
  • Based on our previous research [ 16-19 ], we hypothesized that the red light would be useful for promoting workplace alertness without negatively affecting the sleep and the circadian system. (cdc.gov)
