Sleeping With Artificial Light at Night Associated With Weight Gain in Women

The results varied with the level of artificial light at night exposure. For example, using a small nightlight was not associated with weight gain, whereas women who slept with a light or television on were 17% more likely to have gained 5 kilograms, approximately 11 pounds, or more over the follow-up period. The association with having light coming from outside the room was more modest. https://www.technologynetworks.com/diagnostics/news/sleeping-with-artificial-light-at-night-associated-with-weight-gain-in-women-320840?utm_campaign=NEWSLETTER_TN_Breaking%20Science%20News&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=73826443&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9hh2dHuXDh3sTpZAkamg7OKBrjRQSeSjPdLXnSZLgZZdz_5VQEFn7g2RZ5lIyyT_R-9nGh_vOT2sou74id_DDY7y8L1w&_hsmi=73826443
