Blue light filters don’t work

Why controlling total luminance is a better bet

The NeuroAI archive

"Is exposure to blue light before bed reducing your sleep quality by 60%?

Prolonged exposure to blue light, emitted by smartphones, computers, and TVs, suppresses melatonin production, making it harder to fall asleep. This is because blue light tricks the brain into thinking it's still daytime.

A good night's sleep is just as vital as a meal, it's not a luxury, it's a necessity.

What do you do to avoid the blue light sleep killer?
