Andre The Podcast
The Hidden Cost of Daylight Saving Time
EPISODE 39 • SEASON 3 00:13:57
Twice a year, Americans adjust their clocks for Daylight Saving Time… springing forward in March and falling back in November. But what does that one-hour shift actually do to our bodies?
In this episode of Andre The Podcast, we explore the effects daylight saving time can have on sleep, mental focus, and overall health. From the science behind the body’s Circadian Rhythm to the growing concerns from sleep experts and medical researchers, the conversation examines how even a small change in time can disrupt the body’s natural rhythm.
The episode also includes a report from NBC's Today show, highlighting the national discussion about whether the long-standing practice should continue.
With lawmakers debating proposals like the Sunshine Protection Act, we ask an important question:
Is it finally time to stop changing the clock?
