Daylight Saving Time Raises Health Risks

Most of America will \"spring forward\" for daylight saving time on Sunday. Losing one hour of sleep can make you feel tired and even sick.

Darker mornings and more evening light confuse your body's natural clock. Studies show more heart attacks and strokes happen after this time change.

Daylight saving time starts Sunday at 2 a.m. in most of the U.S. Hawaii and Arizona do not change their clocks; they keep standard time.

Morning sunshine can help reset your body's internal clock for better sleep. Try going to bed a little earlier for a few nights before Sunday.

There is often talk about stopping the time change every year in America. Some health groups believe standard time all year is best for health.
