Health Considerations for Sweden Residents
Medical research has revealed important health impacts of time changes in Sweden. The spring forward transition is associated with a 9% increase in heart attacks during the first three days after the change. Car accidents also spike by approximately 8% on the Monday following the spring time change.
Health Tip: Gradually adjust your sleep schedule by going to bed 15 minutes earlier
each night for four days before the spring time change.

✓ Gradually adjust your sleep schedule a few days before the time change to minimize disruption.
