Abstract
Humankind currently lives largely under artificial light, potentially negatively impacting circadian-metabolic alignment and predisposing it to diseases. Harmsen et al.<sup>1</sup> show that natural daylight exposure during office hours improves several metabolic parameters including glucose regulation, enhancing fat oxidation, and advancing muscle-clock circadian phase in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
