The influence of LED on our biological clock

LED lighting contains blue in the color spectrum. And that can entail health risks. The amount of 'blue light' has increased considerably in recent years via smartphones, TV, computers or energy-efficient LED lamps in the home. People are spending more and more time, both at work and in their free time, behind screens of all sizes and in rooms with LED lighting. 

There are scientific indications that LED lighting has a greater influence on disrupting the biological clock than other light sources. The biological clock ensures a cyclical course of, among other things, heart rate, hormone secretion, body temperature and the sleeping and waking cycle. Disruption of the biological clock can lead to shorter sleep, reduced attention and a greater risk of accidents. Pieter Kramer from Laser 2000 In his lecture he discusses the influence of LED lighting on our biological clock. Now that much more is known about this, luminaire suppliers can start taking concrete measurements and specifying their lamps for this problem.
