On October 2nd, 2017, the Nobel Prize in Phsyiology or Medicine was jointly awarded to Dr. Jeffrey C. Hall, Dr. Michael Rosbash and Dr. Michael W. Young for their research and discoveries on the molecular mechanisms that control our circadian rhythms.
We are just beginning to understand the human body's relationship to light and color temperature. Many studies have questioned how alterations in light impact our circadian rhythms, stress levels, sleep habits, mental health, appetite, etc.
When exploring how light impacts health, the best place to start is the human eye.
