248 leading scientists warn of Harmful Health Effects of Blue-Rich LED Light at Night

Retrieved on: 
Monday, October 9, 2023

BOSTON, Oct. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Many of the lights sold today are causing major health problems, including obesity, diabetes, and breast cancer. Why? They are blue-enriched LEDs, which play havoc on people's circadian rhythms during the evening hours. On October 10th, Blue Light Awareness Day, the Circadian Light Research Center announces the publication in Frontiers in Photonics of a consensus survey which confirms that human circadian clocks are highly sensitive to blue wavelengths, and insufficient daytime blue-rich light and excessive blue-rich light at night, leads to many health disorders.

Key Points: 
  • BOSTON, Oct. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Many of the lights sold today are causing major health problems, including obesity, diabetes, and breast cancer.
  • People should purchase lights for evening and night use that do not contain blue light and use blue-enriched LEDs during daytime only."
  • 248 scientists, with a total of 2,697 peer-reviewed publications on light and circadian clocks since 2008, completed a survey with potential consensus statements.
  • There is now sufficient evidence to support the widespread introduction of circadian lighting that adjusts light intensity and blue content across day and night to maintain robust circadian entrainment and health.
