Far beyond the media's periodic expostulations about SAD, disruptive evening blue light, and vitamin D deficiencies, we've learned that:
more daytime light boosts a baby's sleep
24/7 bright lights in ICUs harm patients
circadian timing influences chemotherapy's effectiveness
many mental disorders are caused by disrupted circadian clocks
bright light therapy is more effective at treating those disorders (1, 2) than drugs
circadian disruption correlates with ADHD symptoms
two days of camping in dawn-to-dusk sunlight can reset the circadian clock
a lack of daylight seems to cause heart attacks
kids in sunlit classrooms learn 20–25% more than kids in classrooms without sunlight
circadian clocks are disrupted in both anorexia and obesity
