Cheers! Alexis is a really great resource for all things blue light. Her podcast is called Undoctrinate Yourself and I've learned so much! On the modern phones there's settings to activate night mode. My screen is crazy orange all day because I'm trying to reduce the artificial blue light as much as possible. It helps a lot!
Some of the episodes are a little tough but Dr Jack Kruse talks a lot about the light as well, but he's got a fondness of vulgarity so you can't listen with the kids around lol. He talks about how it messed with the pituitary gland which then messes with the thyroid. It's crazy how it's all related but blue light really messes up our dopamine system and many others.
It's about balance as well. We replaced the night lights in our house where the rooms are with amber ones so the light is closer to incandescent. The blue light night lights are atrocious for sleep!
Then down another avenue and rabbit hole is the Daylight Computer company they have many great podcasts their owners join and talk about how electricity is messing us up too and we can do easy things to improve our environment like unplugging WiFi routers at night while we are sleeping and not having any electrical outlets plugged in near the kiddos because of the electric radiation it gives off.
This isn't meant to scare you but just say we can make some great and very small changes in our environment and improve our health quite a bit!
