Sleeping with the light on has many negative effects on your health.

Sleep is the process of restoring our energy, and adequate rest is also very important for our health. Many people will habitually open a nightlight when playing mobile phones before going to bed; When children just sleep in separate rooms with their parents, they will turn on a small desk lamp because of fear.

But turning on the light to sleep has a great influence on our health:

Apparent fatigue

Friends who are sensitive to light should know that sometimes you can feel the light source by closing your eyes. Sleeping with the light on for a long time, the eye muscles will continue to be in a tight state, which is easy to dry eyes.

Sleep quality decline

Lack of sleep or poor sleep quality will lead to insulin not metabolizing glucose normally in the body, and also lead to obesity among people.

Affect melatonin secretion

People are more likely to secrete melatonin in the dark at night. Melatonin can promote sleep and enhance immunity. Eyeball sensory light source will affect the secretion of melatonin, and immunity will decrease in the long run.

Sleeping with the lights on does bring a lot of convenience to life. However, the light at night has many negative effects on the body. It is not good to turn off the lights and sleep directly, or you can dim the lights appropriately.

I hope everyone can have a high quality sleep.
