I doubt your assertion about circadian rhythm research, largely because of the cave experiments that show that people naturally assume non-24 hour days when removed from sunlight and social cues.

The melatonin response to sunlight shortens the cycle so the oscillator runs long without it. It wouldn't work well the other way.

You seem oblivious to the decades of research into chronobiology and studies into shift work, jet lag, etc.

Your loss.

So, in other words, get more sunlight?
