How Daylight Saving Time changes influence brain and body health

Daylight saving time ends this weekend, with clocks moving back an hour, which provides an extra hour of sleep but results in earlier sunsets affecting routines and health. Dr. Ashhar Ali, a neurologist, mentions health impacts, while only Hawaii and Arizona do not observe this time change. Despite ongoing discussions about eliminating daylight saving time, federal legislation is required, and a recent poll shows limited support, with only 12% favoring it, 47% opposing, and 40% neutral.
