Can your iPad keep you awake? scientists test App's effect on sleep hormone

NCT ID NCT07095270

Summary

This small pilot study aimed to test a special light program on an iPad to see if it could reduce levels of melatonin, the body's natural sleep hormone, and make people feel less sleepy. Researchers measured melatonin in saliva and asked 10 healthy adults over age 30 about their sleepiness. The goal was to validate whether this technology works as intended.
