Benefits of getting up an hour earlier than usual

A new study concluded that waking up an hour earlier than usual reduces the risk of developing depression, according to Sky News.

The study, which was prepared by researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder and Harvard and the Broad Institute of Biomedicine that the risk is reduced by 23 percent, if a person can reset the waking clock.

According to the study, every hour you wake up earlier than usual, the benefit is greater.

Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest, which affects how you feel, think and behave and can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems.

An expert in the study explains that people who get up early fit better with typical work and rest schedules, while those who sleep very late, such as midnight or dawn, find this difficult.

Physiologically, people who wake up early are also exposed to more and earlier light, which may affect their health positively.
