Blue light is a part of the light spectrum that our body relies on to help us wake up in the morning. We need a small amount of blue light to activate our brain and to keep us going throughout the day.
Specific to sleep health, the blue light emitted from our electronic devices happens on a spectrum (measured in nanometers) that may be contributing to our poor-quality sleep. Blue light is more powerful than other light in the visible light spectrum, and the blue light emitted from our devices occurs in a range starting at 420 nanometers. The range of blue light between 459-484 nanometers is critical in influencing melatonin, the hormone responsible for entraining our circadian rhythms, also known as the sleep/wake cycle.
Blue Light Exposure
* Harvard researchers experimented with the effects of 6.5 hours of blue light exposure to Greenlight at a comparable brightness. They found that the impact of blue light vs. green light exposure was in blue light suppressing melatonin.

Sleep Deprivation
Our brains associate blue light with daytime, meaning that if a person is exposed to blue light for a longer period of time in the evening, it can be more difficult to fall asleep and wake up in the morning.
Excessive exposure to blue light disrupts the normal nighttime secretion of melatonin, a hormone that regulates the sleep cycle.
Sleep experts have spent years studying the impact of blue light on our circadian rhythm, a cycle that tells our bodies when to sleep and wake up.
Their studies have proven that the increased use of electronic devices and extended screen-time are one of the primary causes of sleep disturbance.
Symptoms of sleep deprivation include moodiness, fatigue, difficulty focusing, impacted memory, weakened immune system, high blood pressure, and other health issues.
Eye Strain
Digital devices have become an integral part of our daily lives. Smartphones, laptops, tablets, and Kindles emit blue light from their screens, disrupting our body’s natural clock and straining our eyes.

OUR LIFESTYLE
Today, our lifestyles are hectic, and we rely heavily on blue light emitters – smartphones, computers, and TV, to get us through our days and nights.
As a result, there has been a significant spike in sleep disorders, headaches, eye strain, and other related health issues.
