La luce è molto importante per il benessere mentale

La luce del sole agisce come regolatore ormonale

La luce del sole agisce come orologio biologico e regolatore ormonale. I ricercatori del Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research in Germania hanno sfruttato questa nozione per realizzare una copertura per i vetri delle finestre che lascia passare più luce. Inoltre, questi vetri incentivano il passaggio di alcune specifiche lunghezze d’onda che governano il nostro equilibrio ormonale.

“Il nostro team ha sviluppato una copertura inorganica spessa appena 0,1 micrometri, progettata per far passare la luce blu, che viaggia a una lunghezza d’onda di 450 – 500 nanometri. La maggior parte delle finestre e delle vetrate delle case e dei luoghi pubblici, invece, riflette questa lunghezza”, ha spiegato a ScienceBlog Walther Glaubitt, ingegnere parte del progetto.

“La luce blu è molto importante per il benessere mentale perchè nel nostro cervello sono presenti dei recettori, sensibili a questa luce, che regolano l’orologio biologico. La carenza della giusta illuminazione – ha aggiunto l’ingegnere – può portare a scompensi nell’equilibrio ormonale e problemi di sonno, che alla lunga possono portare a depressione e altri problemi psicologici”.

  9. Many thanks for sharing all these wonderful posts. In addition, an excellent travel and also medical insurance program can often ease those problems that come with travelling abroad. A medical crisis can rapidly become expensive and that’s absolute to quickly decide to put a financial load on the family’s finances. Setting up in place the perfect travel insurance package deal prior to setting off is well worth the time and effort. Thanks a lot
