Can LED bulbs give you diabetes? UCL neuroscientist warns modern lighting may damage mitochondria and affect metabolism

The rise of LED lighting in residential and commercial spaces has sparked discussions among health experts. Some researchers suggest that these lights might influence metabolic processes and heighten diabetes risk. One study indicates that using broader-spectrum lighting could provide enhanced health benefits over standard LEDs. Despite these discussions, there is currently insufficient evidence to assert a direct link between LED usage and diabetes in humans.
