Daylight Savings Time ends 2 a.m. on Sunday (11/05) and many health experts are warning about the importance of protecting your sleep cycle through this change.
Sleep specialists at Baptist Health are reminding everyone that gaining an hour of sleep can actually have a detrimental effect.
It’s important that people keep a regular sleep cycle. If you adjust your schedule, do it in 15-minute increments every couple of nights.
People who work night shifts are sometimes the most affected by the time changes, but a change in sleep habits can be harmful to anyone.
It is also a good time to check all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors to make sure they are working correctly. It is recommended to replace any smoke detector that is at least 10 years old and to put new batteries in all detectors.
