On Sunday, we “spring ahead” to daylight saving time, even though many sleep experts wish we wouldn’t.
Members of health groups prefer standard time over daylight saving time because they say it’s more aligned with our body clocks.
Lawmakers have pushed to make daylight saving time permanent.
“Research shows that the abrupt seasonal shift in time disrupts circadian rhythms, leading to sleep disturbances, increased fatigue and even a heightened risk of heart attacks and strokes,” says James Rowley, president of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
He adds that right after the clocks shift in March, there’s “a spike in workplace accidents, road accidents and medical errors due to sleep deprivation and cognitive impairment.”
Daylight saving time begins at 2 a.m. Sunday, when clocks are set forward one hour.
That means sunrise and sunset on Sunday will appear to happen an hour later than they did the day before.
