According to a number of studies, room lighting is closely linked to sleep and weight.
As evidence, we can cite the results of an experiment published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
The participants in the experiment were divided into two groups: the first group was asked to sleep in dark rooms, while the subjects in the second group were forced to rest in lighted rooms.
It was found that people who slept in the dark were 21% less likely to be obese than those who slept in the light.
The explanation lies in the hormone melatonin, which is also called the sleep hormone.
When there is too much light, it is simply not produced in our body.
If there is very little melatonin, problems will arise not only with falling asleep, but also with the process of losing weight.
Therefore, if you have been on a strict diet for several months, doing sports, but still do not see the result in the form of a slim figure, try turning off the night lights and be sure to buy dark thick curtains.
