Daylight Saving Time (DST) disrupts human circadian rhythms (the body's internal ~24-hour biological clock), and the evidence from sleep science, chronobiology, and public health studies is clear and consistent.

Key Mechanisms of Disruption
1. Abrupt phase shift in light-dark cycle
- The "spring forward" (losing 1 hour) advances the social clock by 1 hour relative to solar time.
- Morning light exposure — the most powerful *zeitgeber* (time-giver) for resetting the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the brain — is delayed by an hour.
- This mimics eastward jet lag of ~1 time zone, delaying melatonin onset and wake-up signals.

2. Sleep loss and fragmentation
- On the Monday after spring DST transition, average sleep duration drops -20–40 minutes (CDC, AASM data).
- Sleep efficiency falls; REM and deep sleep stages are truncated.
- The "fall back" is less disruptive but still causes overshoot (earlier bedtimes, fragmented sleep).

Measurable Health & Performance Impacts
| Effect | Evidence | Source |

*24% spike in heart attacks | Monday after spring DST

*Am J Cardiol* 2019 meta-analysis

+6–8% traffic fatalities Week following spring change *Curr Biol* 2008, *J Clin Sleep Med* 2020

Workplace injuries ↑18%
Monday post-spring | U.S. Dept of Labor / *Sleep* 2016

Stroke risk ↑8% First 2 days after transition | *Sleep Med* 2021 (European cohort)

Cyberloafing ↑8% Week after DST start | *J Appl Psychol* 2019 |

Vulnerable Groups
-Adolescents: Already phase-delayed circadian clocks; DST exacerbates school-start misalignment.
- Shift workers & night owls (delayed sleep phase syndrome)

- Older adults: Reduced circadian amplitude; slower re-entrainment.

Long-Term vs. Acute Effects
- Acute The 1-hour shift is the primary culprit (resolved in ~3–7 days for most).
- *mChronic: Permanent DST (year-round) would misalign solar noon with clock noon by ~30–60 min in most U.S. regions, permanently delaying morning light— which the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) opposes for this reason. Permanent *standard* time aligns better with solar cues.

Expert Consensus
- AASM (2020): Recommends permanent standard time -opposes permanent DST.
- Society for Research on Biological Rhythms (2023)"DST constitutes a mild but recurrent form of experimental jet lag."
- European Parliament (2021) Voted to abolish biannual changes; most member states favor permanent standard time.

Bottom Line
Yes — DST does mess with our biorhythms. The spring transition is physiologically equivalent to a 1-hour time-zone jump eastward, triggering measurable sleep loss, cardiovascular stress, and safety risks. The healthiest option, per chronobiologists, is permanent standard time (no clock changes, solar noon near 12:00).

In a world full of deception… the only voice you can trust is God’s. So how do we develop the ability to hear God?

People who listen to God often do things that look illogical to those around them. That’s when God gets all the glory…

The goal of our lives isn’t to get attention for what we do but acquiring the ability to live in obscurity … and continue to serve God outside of societies per view…

I do not yet know WHICH or HOW MANY banks suddenly found themselves needing cash, but I do know that this is a larger Overnight REPO injection than occurred even during the Dot Com Bubble collapse.
Someone, or several someones, needed a ton of cash last night - and no one is saying who or why.  This doesn't seem good

Michigan Schools Under Fire for Teaching 3rd Graders “Abstinence Is Wrong”

Michigan’s Board of Education is reportedly using materials from the Society for Health Education that encourage sexual activity for children as young as eight and nine. Rep. Jamie Thompson exposed that the group claims abstinence “fails kids” and even calls it a “threat to the fundamental human right of sex.” Critics say it’s outrageous that a program promoting sexual behavior below the state’s age of consent is being pushed in elementary classrooms.

The time for talk is OVER!

Mr. POTUS we have control of Congress and the Oval Office and now is the time to get Bills H.R. 4097 and S. 2293 wrapped up and finally designate CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations.

The RAIR Foundation is tracking and will continue to track every Republican who blocks these bans — and they will be named and shamed.

America’s leaders must confront this domestic threat network using Sharia as a weapon - through halal finance, lawfare, propaganda, and political capture.

Enough is Enough.

Time will not make this problem go away. There is a constitutional way to overcome this existential threat. Don’t wait any longer.

As Ronald Reagan warned, we are no longer one generation away from losing our freedoms, we’re one presidency away from… IF we don’t hold people who committed TREASON accountable!

Oakland County
Stefanie Lambert had an appearance before Judge Jeffrey Matis to discuss instruction of the jury in the upcoming March 2 trial.

Attorney Peter Ticktin and Dan Hartman were also there as her counsel.

@Brandenburg4Mi

Peter Ticktin went to school with President Trump! Amazing wonderful honor to meet him.

@Brandenburg4Mi

Stefanie Lambert comments after court.

@Brandenburg4Mi

Peter Ticktin comments after court. This is all about election integrity and prosecution of Stefanie Lambert

@Brandenburg4Mi

More comments from Peter Ticktin in the court proceedings regarding the persecution of Stephanie Lambert. She’s being targeting for standing for election security.

@Brandenburg4Mi

The court proceedings were not about justice it was about legal games. I left the courtroom with total contempt for both the judge and the prosecutor. They were more interested in ramming through the process than insuring that justice was served.

They changed their story from the proceeding court appearance and changed the rules of the game…creating law from the bench out of thin air.

I thought that there was a presumption of innocence in America?!?but the prosecutor assumed and presented Stephanie as “crimes committed.” That was a clear statement of presumption of guilt from the prosecutor.

Pray for Stephanie. She’s an American hero… fighting for us … free and fair elections.

Having been diagnose with “incurable cancer” years ago, I went on a quest to cure myself. God gave us everything we need to heal naturally. This is worth looking into…haven’t tried it yet but evidence is growing that DMSO is promising. I’ll give you my results.

We use it on horses. There seems to be a lot of info on using it only on very clean skin…in small amounts. We use it on horses and you never get their skin completely clean so not sure how much reality there is to the over cautious. But noteworthy. Listen to the video link posted under this post for an incredible story of hope.

Donna’s MO … do your research and try everything…in a thoroughly researched way. You have a better chance of finding good info than relying on the “experts.”

Being in court yesterday with @StefLambertEsq you can see the whole court system is rigged. They are even rigging the jury selection…easy to see in court yesterday. The judge and prosecutor get a vote of no confidence. They do not represent We the People. They are protecting the unconstitutional power structure. The enemy is within…

Stefanie Lambert is being hit with legal persecution for standing up for free and fair elections for all of us. The United States is under attack from within. Their method is trying to silence our warriors who stand up for the truth. Those who are being attacked, accused, or under threat of harm (like those under threat of Arctic Frost) are over the target. There is a new list that hasn’t been released of over 700 people who are on a list for being “un-alived” … wonder who made that list? Everything HAS to be declassified!!!!!
