In what way? Healthiness of a time standardization seems like it would be hard to validate. I personally prefer DST I’ve never considered either healthier or unhealthier. I remember hearing statistics about an abnormal number of car accidents and stuff happening the Monday after DST/ST changes. I’ve also heard some rhetoric about risk of car accidents with kids walking to bus or school being mitigated by standard time.
I’m assuming you mean something less acute than those which are focused on immediate outcomes like death lol? The only thing health related I can think of is daylight exposure and vitamin d levels, but it seems inconsistent whether people are more likely to take advantage of extra morning sunlight or evening sunlight. Seems like it would be a wash?
Anyway, I’m legitimately interested to know what you mean by “healthy”
Did you actually read the link? The study basically attributes all of the negative effects to the change and not specifically standard time or daylight saving time, so I think what that means is DST is no more or less good for people than standard time. The switching is the part that is harmful.
I don’t know why we ever “fall back”. I dream of a life in which we “spring forward” and stay there forever.
We should stay on standard time. DST is fucking dumb
If we stay on permanent DST you get to go to work and school in the dark.
No, you’re only looking at one half of the argument.
The other half is that permanent Standard time is healthier for us.
