A recent study in China found a significant relationship between light pollution and an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease, including stroke. Participants with high exposure to outdoor light at night had a 43% higher risk of developing the condition. The study highlights the negative impact of continuous artificial light exposure on health, as it can suppress melatonin production, impair sleep, and contribute to various health issues. Recommendations include using sustainable outdoor lighting and adopting practices to reduce exposure to artificial light before bedtime.
