It's not camping, but I recently got back from an annual trip to Lake Superior and out of cell service. I feel like a different person coming back from these trips. I used to bite my fingernails, but didn't during that time every year.

I'm wondering, did you have a greater exposure to natural light? Or less artificial light?

Definitely both.

I think that's what the article was saying. What offsets our internal clocks is a diminished exposure to natural light and augmented time with artificial. I guess any sort of "stabilization" could help restore order.
