Light and Biological Rhythms in Man by L. Wetterberg

By L. Wetterberg

During this quantity, present wisdom on mild as a regulator of organic rhythms is taken into account from either easy technology and scientific views. Chapters via top, specialists disguise the complete diversity of organic rhythms, from infradian and circadian to the longer ultradian rhythms, in a wide selection of mammalian species. The chapters on people supply a foundation on which to set up mechanisms for mediating the healing and physiologically worthwhile results of sunshine as a regulator of rhythms in wellbeing and fitness and sickness
