The Ministry of Health has highlighted the impact of screens on sleep patterns and stressed the importance of taking preventive measures.

In a post on its "Live Well" account on X, the ministry explained that blue light from screens can trick the brain, reducing the sleep hormone and delaying rest, which in turn affects sleep quality and leads to poor concentration the next day.

The ministry advised avoiding screens for 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime, enabling night mode, and lowering screen brightness in the evening.
