You will be surprised to know that the light that shows us the way at night can be a big threat to our health. Scientists have found that the bright light of street lights can disturb our body's biological clock and can cause many serious diseases.

A new study has shown that constantly being exposed to bright light at night can increase the risk of stroke in people. This study conducted on more than 28 thousand people in China found that people who stay in bright light at night have a 43% higher risk of stroke.

The researchers used satellite images to measure the amount of light around people's homes. They then checked these people's health records and found that those who had more light around their homes were more likely to have a stroke.

Why does this happen?

Researchers believe that bright light reduces the body's production of a hormone called melatonin. Melatonin helps regulate sleep. When melatonin is low, sleep problems can occur and many other negative effects on the body can occur.

What do the experts say?

The study authors say we should think about the potential harm of street lights for people living in urban areas and consider low-light alternatives.

What to do?

Use dim lighting indoors, especially before bed.

Keep the room completely dark while sleeping.

Reduce the use of mobile phones or computers before going to bed as the blue light emitted from them can disturb sleep.

Plants can help dim the light around the home.
