    • How daylight saving time impacts health

The article from MSN discusses the health impacts of Daylight Saving Time (DST). It explains that the transition to DST, where clocks are set forward by one hour, disrupts our circadian rhythms, leading to several health issues. This change can result in increased risks of heart attacks, strokes, and mood disturbances due to sleep loss. The article highlights that the sudden shift affects sleep patterns, causing fatigue, reduced productivity, and an uptick in accidents and errors at work. It also notes that while the "spring forward" is particularly harmful, the "fall back" can also have negative effects, albeit less severe, as it extends evening light which might delay sleep. The piece suggests that these time changes could be detrimental enough to consider making DST permanent or abolishing it altogether to mitigate these health risks.
