Opening a room window in the morning so that fresh air and sunlight can enter the room turns out to be a healthy habit. A study shows that this action can help reduce the risk of bacterial contamination.

Launching the New York Post, Sunday (10/21/2018), new studies show that if you do not open the window curtain in the morning, the possibility of falling ill can be greater.

Sunlight in the morning can kill disease-causing bacteria that live in dust. Meanwhile, darker conditions actually make them develop.

The findings, published in the Microbiome scientific journal, also warned of problems that appeared in offices without windows.

"Humans spend most of the time indoors, where exposure to dust particles that carry bacteria, including pathogens that can make us sick, cannot be avoided," said study leader Ashkaan Fahimipour.

So, buildings or houses occupied play an important role in determining one's health. "It is important to understand the features of the buildings we occupy, affect the dust ecosystem and how this can affect our health," Fahimipour said.

The team at the University of Oregon, United States, conducted research by creating eleven miniature rooms.

The rooms are identical to each other and placed at various levels of light. After 90 days, a dark room has twice the number of bacteria.

"We hope that with further understanding, we can design access to sunlight in buildings such as schools, offices, hospitals, and homes in ways that reduce the risk of infection from being transmitted by dust," Fahimipour added.

So for those of you who are accustomed to waking up in pitch black rooms, from now on try to get used to lifting the curtains and opening the windows. Although blinding to the eyes, in fact the morning sunlight does provide many benefits to our health.
