SleepScore Labs proves specialty spectrum lighting can yield better sleep
“Evening exposure to regular LED light, which contains a high amount of the blue spectrum, is capable of disrupting sleep by minimizing the melatonin secretion that naturally occurs in the evening and helps you sleep,” said Roy Raymann, Ph.D., Vice President of Sleep Science and Scientific Affairs, SleepScore Labs.
“The Good Night LED sleep-enhancing light minimizes the amount of blue light spectrum emitted and therefore helps prevent blue light-induced decreases in melatonin secretion in the evening. This might help people fall asleep easier and maintain a regular sleep schedule, which is key to good sleep.”
SleepScore Labs is backed by over 12 years of comprehensive research and development, including more than six million nights of objective sleep data. SleepScore Labs’ sleep measurement technology, powered by ResMed, has extensively been validated against polysomnography (PSG) – the gold standard in sleep measurement. The LED sleep-enhancing lights were tested over 1,750 nights of tracked sleep with multiple users and were found to benefit several key aspects of perceived and objective sleep. Over half of users reported better sleep in general, over half of users reported shorter time to fall asleep and half of users felt more rested when waking up the next day.
Lighting Science Group also offers the companion Good Night bedside table lamp through the SleepScore Labs website to further support a natural sleep cycle and improve overall the quality and duration of sleep.
