Ah, fair enough - blinded is preferable of course, no argument here. It’s not enough for me to discount it entirely by itself is all.
I’m just 95% convinced that the people who claim it’s lifechanging for stress/anxiety are delusional.
I hadn’t heard about this but it totally makes sense that people would hype it like that.
I think the proposal for your it helps with stress is that the same mechanisms which provide benefits for sleep also work to reduce production of stress-induced hormones like cortisol. That does make sense to me; I’d need a biochemist to tell me if it’s right or wrong and why, though.
