i dont doubt it, but isnt the natural state of man to wake up before dawn, hunt, sleep midday, wake up before dusk and hunt again then sleep again. we lived this way since the dawn of time, yet none of us live this way today. society came about recently and now we wake at sunrise and sleep at susnset. my point being humans are adaptable.

Any length of time was meant to imply if you do it for a sustained period or too long it will shorten your life, not like 1 day lol. Calm down incel

Both scenarios that you have described have humans awake and exposed to the sun early in the day and then sleeping in full darkness during the heart of the night - not being awake during the darkest hours and then hiding in a dark space to try and sleep as the sun is rising.

The old pattern I had read of was humans going to sleep when it got dark, waking up for some time in the middle of the night, and then sleeping again until sunrise. Sleeping during the heat of the day in a hot climate would make sense too. But, again, these patterns don't include sleeping during the morning hours or being awake in the hours leading up to sunrise.

Modern humans have adapted to industrialization in a lot of ways, but that doesn't mean that it's good for our health.

yet its nothing to be so alarmed about as to say "youll die sooner" with any great certainty. one can take precautions if assigned nightshift, such as waking up early to get evening sun in. I find that most ills from working nights are self inflicted, Its not the cycle in itself so much but the effect it has on most peoples social life along with a lack of routine and general discontent.

I have no interest in internal dialogue derived "I think".
Sometimes common sense and Logical conclusions beat off (out) the science fantasy. Look at the Covid horsechit scamdemic. Plenty of us called out the "Follow the Science" BS, and we were right. JFLOL. Graveyards are probably not the best for your health, but Afternoon shift is probably the best. Waking up to an Alarm clock every day is far worse for you than waking up when your body is ready to.

Pretty absurd that ppl are still jerking off scientists with what happened the past few years. Scientists are douchebags and science is big gay
