Flights from one end of the earth to the other are a lot of stress on our health. After all, if in Moscow late in the evening, somewhere in New York City early in the morning. The internal clock slipping in the body and migrate them to a new mode is sometimes very difficult.
In the journal Science Translational Medicine published the results of a study conducted by experts from the Women's Hospital Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. They concluded that the effect on the green Human vision may aid in the rapid reinstallation internal clock . And we are talking about so-called "non-visual response" of the body, that is, having no direct relation to the Visually impaired person .
Previously, scientists have found that the most effective color in this regard is blue, as the authors of the study. It is believed that the photoreceptor system of the eye, located in the ganglion cell layer of the eye (ganglia) and acting separately from the part of the eye that is responsible for processing visual images, is a center of specialized cells that detect and process blue. And these cells, in turn, affect the production of hormonal reactions unrelated to bed, that is to the body's internal clock .
This belief led to the widespread use blue for medicinal purposes Ranging from treatment of sleep disorders and finishing treatment syn drome seasonal affective disorder .
But in the new study, scientists have found that green also has a therapeutic effect and perfectly reconfigures internal clock . Nine days of 52 healthy volunteers were exposed to either blue or green, to reconfigure them sleep and wakefulness in a simulated situation of night shifts. Both colors have proven effective.
