Do you have a sleep problem? If you do, there is a simple way to help you improve your sleep. You may need to see more sunlight, especially in the morning, according to a study.
A team of researchers (研究人员) from New York, US did the study, reported Yahoo News.
The team did a study on 109 office workers across the US. They found that some of the workers saw lots of light during the morning hours, between 8 am and lunchtime. 研究人员发现这些工人比其他工人拥有更好的睡眠。They also fell asleep more quickly at night.
Why is sunlight so important to our sleep? Researchers say it helps us set our "body clock". When there is less and less sunlight at the end of the day, our body starts to make melatonin (褪黑素). It makes us feel sleepy so that we know it's time to go to bed. Our body makes the most melatonin at night. But during the day, sunlight tells our body to make less melatonin so that we can stay awake (清醒的) and do our work.
Researchers suggest (建议) that we should see 15 minutes of sunlight in the morning. It can help balance (平衡) the melatonin in our bodies.
