Daylight Saving Time is this Sunday. “Springing Forward' can cause tiredness, but it can also impact your health.
Most of the United States will "spring forward" Sunday for daylight saving time and lose an extra hour of sleep.This can leave many Americans tired and even cranky the next day. But, it could also negatively impact a person’s health.According to experts, darker mornings and lighter evenings can disrupt the body’s internal clock and cause sleep trouble for weeks or even longer.
But until this happens, experts suggest getting to bed a little earlier in the days leading up to Daylight Saving Time to help gradually adjust to the time change."Stay active, maintain a regular exercise pattern or routine," Patel added. "Try to avoid exercise late at night. Especially if a person is having difficulty sleeping, exercise earlier in the day."Patel also suggested cutting back on excessive drinking.
