“HIGHLIGHTS”

Natural daylight vs. artificial lighting impacts individuals with type 2 diabetes

Daylight increases whole-body fat oxidation and improves glucose homeostasis

Daylight increases evening melatonin levels and alters the blood multi-omic signature

Daylight vs. artificial light differentially impacts the human skeletal muscle clock

“Our findings suggest that natural daylight exposure has a positive metabolic impact on individuals with type 2 diabetes and could support the treatment of metabolic diseases.”Image Study:

Higher Latitudes (less UVB) = Higher Cancer RatesImage Breast Cancer

Breast cancer rates were higher in countries with higher latitude across 107 countries (P<0.0001).

Also, higher UVB irradiance was associated with lower breast cancer risk (P=0.04) after adjusting for cloud cover and other factors such as alcohol consumption, cigarette use and obesity.
