Light, in terms of our experiments, stimulates breast-cancer growth activity, and obviously this is due to the ability of light to shut off melatonin production.

If the link between light exposure and cancer risk can be confirmed, it could have an immediate impact on the production and use of artificial lighting in this country. This might include lighting with a wavelength and intensity that does not disrupt melatonin levels and internal timekeeping.
