As gaming glasses become more popular, a huge number of blue light glasses for gamer girls have been created by Teddith. How do you tell which are the best? Gaming glasses are a new and essential accessory for any serious gamer girl, or anyone who spends a lot of time staring at screens. As we all spend more and more time on computers and other devices, there is evidence that the blue light from screens is related to macular degeneration, and more people suffer from eye strain and screen-headaches. Blue-light cancelling glasses for gamer girls reduce the amount of blue light streaming into the wearer's eye, ultimately helping to maintain sharp perception of what is happening on screen. As a...

Take a moment to think about all the time you spend looking at a screen throughout your day. As I write this post the weekly notification pops up on my phone screen alerting me that I have spent an average of 3 hours per day on my phone. That seems like a lot. It is especially shocking when you consider that even just 10 years ago smartphones were still considered cutting edge and few people had them. Today: they are in our pockets and purses everywhere we go, and they have our constant attention. And it's not just phones that catch our eyes, many of us work in offices where another 8+ hours of screen time is expected each day...

If you strain your eyes looking at screens all day, these might be worth a shot. I'd heard of blue light blocking glasses before: They were yellow, ugly, and not worth the laughter I would get from both roommates and coworkers if I wore them regularly. But, I had a problem: For my job, I needed to spend a minimum of eight hours a day staring at a computer screen. Plus, unfortunately, in my downtime after work, I would often find myself staring at another, smaller screen: the rectangle of my iPhone 7, which would constantly beam more blue light into my face. I often felt like my eyes were red and tired by the end of the day, and...

Light can impact our skin and health in major ways. And, while sunlight might be the most well-known culprit of premature signs of aging, it’s not the only one. The truth is, we probably spend less time in the sun than we do in front of blue light. “Blue light is the typical light emitted from electronic devices, including our phones, computers, TVs and other electronic devices,” says Alissia Zenhausern, N.M.D. Thanks to the modern tech-savvy world we live in, blue light is unavoidable. And, unfortunately, many of us are exposed to unhealthy levels, aka blue light pollution. What is blue light pollution? Much like sunlight — UV rays — there is such thing as too much blue light. “Blue...

Contrary to what many people think, sleep is not an inactive state. During sleep our bodies are doing lots of important work—repairing cells and tissues, restoring full, healthy function to our immune system, consolidating memories and rebooting the neural cells and networks of the brain. We’re burning calories the whole time. For a 150-pound person, the estimated calorie burn over a 7-hour night of rest is just over 440 calories. That’s a 40-minute jog on a treadmill! Getting plenty of high-quality rest is an important—and still overlooked– factor in weight control. Here are some of the ways you can harness your sleep routine and your overnight rest to help your body burn more calories and stay metabolically healthier. Activate your...
