Did You Know? Lights Off For Safety
Simply turning on the bathroom light for a few seconds in the middle of the night can cause changes that may lead to cancer, scientists claim. Researchers in Israel and the UK found that when a light is turned on at night, it triggers an 'over-expression' of cells linked to the formation of cancer. While previous research has found an increased risk of cancer for workers on the night shift under artificial light, this is the first study to show that even short-term exposure can be harmful. You can read more about this – er – enlightening study in the Daily Mail (UK).
