4. SUNLIGHT AND ITS EFFECT ON SEROTONIN
We are accustomed to hearing how hot the sun's rays can be harmful to your skin. But did you know that the right balance can have many positive effects?
Sunlight and darkness cause hormones to break out in your brain. Sun exposure is thought to increase the brain's release of a hormone called serotonin. Serotonin is associated with mood swings and helps a person feel calm and focused. At night, dark light causes the brain to produce another hormone called melatonin. This hormone is responsible for helping you fall asleep.
Without adequate exposure to the sun, your serotonin levels may plummet. Low serotonin levels are associated with a higher risk of major depression with an annual pattern (formerly known as seasonal disease or SAD). This is a type of depression caused by seasonal fluctuations.
Emotional reinforcement is not the only reason for the increasing amount of sunlight. There are several health benefits associated with holding a certain amount of radiation.
