The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Email me to get on either the “Common/Top Issues” (20% fewer pings) or “Everything” list.

I use a sleep app that monitors my sleep, because I haven’t been sleeping well. One of the things it said was that 7 minutes of blue light from sceens activates your brain for an hour.

My son said, “then your brain has been activate for the next 40 years.” LOL

But I have taken some steps. I set both my phone and computers to switch to warmer colors (less blue light) in the evenings.

I turned on a setting on my phone that restricts apps at night. You can still access them but you have to override it and it will prompt you for a reminder in 15 minutes. It’s helping me be more conscious of “do I really want to look at that app, since it’s night time.”

I also have started turning my lights down at night. I have smart lights in the living room and master bedroom. and I can tell it to lower the lights to 40%.

And I bought some cheap blue light blocking reading glasses off the internet.
