Canadian researchers say standard time is better for health

Original: 🌅 Standard time is likely better for population health than daylight saving time, according to Canadian researchers ✨Fol

Canadian researchers have concluded that standard time is likely better for population health than daylight saving time. The finding, circulated via the Australian Science Media Centre, adds to ongoing debate in several countries about whether to keep clock changes or adopt a permanent time system. Researchers argue that misalignment with natural daylight from daylight saving time may harm sleep and overall health.

Why now: The seasonal clock-change debate regularly resurfaces as jurisdictions weigh abolishing daylight saving time.
