Winter’s shorter days disrupt circadian rhythms, increasing melatonin production and daytime fatigue. Reduced sunlight also reduces vitamin D levels, weakening immune defences. At the same time, cold exposure demands extra cellular energy for thermoregulation, straining already taxed systems. These overlapping challenges create a precarious balance in which sleep quality directly affects…
