Researchers at The University of Manchester in the UK discovered that blue light may not be as disruptive to our sleep patterns as originally thought. According to the team, using dim, cooler, lights in the evening and bright warmer lights in the day may be more beneficial to our health.
The scientists claimed that twilight is both dimmer and bluer than daylight and the body clock uses both of those features to determine the appropriate times to be asleep and awake.
In the research on mice, the team used a specially designed lighting whose color can be adjusted without changing brightness and found that blue colors produced weaker effects on the mouse body clock than equally bright yellow colors.
The result was published in Current Biology and the team believes that it has important implications for the design of lighting and visual displays intended to ensure healthy patterns of sleep and alertness.
