Health Are waking up in a dark room in the mornings dangerous? - New research

The dangerous consequence of waking up in a dark room in the mornings has been revealed.

Milli.Az reports that experts say waking up in a completely dark environment in the mornings creates unexpected risks for human health. According to studies, the absence of daylight disrupts the body's biological clock and negatively affects energy levels, psychological state, and hormone balance throughout the day.

Experts note that the biological rhythm is disturbed: The bodies of people who wake up in the dark recognize the start of the day later. This makes waking up difficult and creates an artificial "delayed start" effect in the body.

Cortisol levels decrease: The cortisol hormone that regulates morning awakening is activated by light signals. Waking up in a dark environment slows this process, causing fatigue and loss of motivation in people.

The risk of depression and stress increases: Waking up without light for a long time can reduce serotonin production in the brain, leading to mood deterioration.

Sleepiness persists throughout the day: Due to the lack of natural light, melatonin levels remain higher than normal, resulting in drowsiness and decreased attention during the day.

Doctors recommend opening windows when waking up in the morning to allow natural daylight into the room and using lighting if necessary. According to them, starting the day with light is important for both psychological and physical health.
