The melanopic region is the cyan part of the light spectrum, which plays a key role in the non-visual biological effects of light during the day in regulating the body’s circadian rhythm. It influences, among other things, the production of the daytime hormone serotonin and creates the conditions for the production of the night time hormone melatonin. It is found in the cyan part of the spectrum between 460 and 500 nanometres with a peak at 480 nm.
The melanopic region is important during the day for maintaining overall health, vitality and cognitive function, mood and sleep quality. In the evening and at night, on the other hand, it should be avoided in order not to disturb melatonin production and to preserve the natural functions of the nocturnal regenerative processes.
