During the 24 – hour period, people experiencing an increase in production and swim in the majority of hormones and neurotransmitters (chemical signals between nerve cells). This day is known as the body’s circadian rhythm cycle and is supported by two internal and external stimuli, the most powerful of these is visible light.

In an attempt to assess exactly how light affects our body clock, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Lighting Research Centre (LRC) in Troy, New York, has developed a device called a “Daysimeter. Lesser and mounted in the ears, as mobile wireless headphones, consists of three sensors to monitor the movement of the head, bright light (or suites, measuring radiation in the day-Vision), and blue visible light (also known as the circadian light). circadian light emitted from the sun, as well as computer and television screens to help some balance of neurotransmitters and hormones in the body, but only in certain doses and at certain times of the day. Too many in this light can be outside the body internal clock, researchers believe will lead to problems such as fatigue and illness.
