Most of us use mobile phones while sleeping and keep complaining that we cannot sleep. When there is no sleep, we start using the phone again and this excessive use of the phone is harming our body, which we do not even know. But do you know that this mobile phone is the reason for not sleepiness at night? So let's tell you today why you have trouble falling asleep if you use the phone at night.
Any laptop, smartphone, tablet, or TV emits blue light and blue light is
the light that our brain perceives as daylight. Actually blue light reduces the
production of melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone that affects our circadian
rhythm. This controls the whole day cycle of our body, that when we sleep when
we wake up. When we go to sleep, its release is the highest in the body but its
release is slightly less in light.
It is okay to watch the phone screen during the day or afternoon. But
when we look at the screen of the phone at night, our brain gets confused
whether it is day or night, and at that time the brain guesses that maybe the
sunlight is still in the room and if the blue color is in the room. then the
sleep-inducing hormone melatonin will not be produced, then we will have
difficulty falling asleep. Due to which our cyclic process gets disturbed
and we start complaining of sleepless nights.
Why does using smartphone at night time disturbs our sleep?
