The mesmerizing shades of blue and orange in the sky at the beginning and end of a sunny day may play a significant role in setting people’s internal clocks. An innovative LED light that alternates between orange and blue light outperformed two other light devices in increasing melatonin levels in a small group of study […]The mesmerizing shades of blue and orange in the sky at the beginning and end of a sunny day may play a significant role in setting people's internal clocks.

Therapy With Intense Light and Timing can Have a Positive Effect on the Heart
According to a new study by researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, controlling the circadian rhythm through intense light and timed therapy may help prevent or treat a number of diseases of the circulatory system, including heart disease. The study was published in Circulation Research, an official journal of the American Heart […]According to a new study by researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, controlling the circadian rhythm through intense light and timed therapy may help prevent or treat a number of diseases of the circulatory system, including heart disease.

Resetting Your Circadian Rhythms
Circadian rhythms involve the behavioral, mental and physical changes that occur in the body in a 24-hour period. Humans and other living organisms possess these rhythms, which are created by a variety of physiological factors in the body and triggered by environmental factors, most notably light cues. One of the best-known circadian rhythms is the […]Circadian rhythms involve the behavioral, mental and physical changes that occur in the body in a 24-hour period.

Circadian Sleep Disorders and Chronobiology
Human beings are creatures ruled by rhythms. The chemical tides of our bodies are constantly ebbing and flowing in a complex pattern of overlapping cycles. These cycles are responsive to a number of environmental factors from the amount of sunlight we receive to what we have for lunch each day. In fact, we are so […]Human beings are creatures ruled by rhythms. The chemical tides of our bodies are constantly ebbing and flowing in a complex pattern of overlapping cycles.

Reset Your Circadian Rhythm for Better Sleep and Good Health
The highly complex, smoothly integrated mind and body systems humans enjoy evolved in tune to the approximately 24-hour period that encompasses day and night. We are fine-tuned down to the molecular level to operate in time with this daily, or circadian, rhythm, with even cellular functions being timed according to this cycle. Disrupting the circadian […]The highly complex, smoothly integrated mind and body systems humans enjoy evolved in tune to the approximately 24-hour period that encompasses day and night.
