Blackout curtains – Why sleeping in the dark is important

On the other hand, light signals the body to stay awake and suppresses melatonin production. For this reason, creating a dark environment is extremely important to improve sleep conditions. Incidentally, sleeping in the dark even helps with...Disease prevention, especially when it comes to heart health.
