Study on Outdoor Light and Alzheimer’s Disease

• Outdoor light at night could be a significant risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease.
• Light pollution has been linked to increased risk of certain disorders.
• Higher nighttime light intensity was linked to greater Alzheimer’s disease prevalence in those under 65.
• Exposure to light disrupts the body’s natural sleep-wake pattern, affecting resilience and disease proneness.
• Further testing needed to understand the connection between evening outdoor light and Alzheimer’s disease.
