Picture
Daylight Saving Time starts November 3 this year.
Studies report that falling back to gain one hour of daylight in the autumn months causes reductions in sleep and increases rates of cardiac issues, stroke, cortisol production, and vehicular accidents. These issues are worst within the first three weeks of DST including the negative effect it has on mood, particularly in the northern latitudes of the earth. Taking a vacation day on Nov 3 may be a good idea.
