What's Light Got To Do With It? - Part Seven: A Revolutionary Technology that Will Change Your Life

Interview with: Rachel Maurice, MD In this episode we explore:  * How did she discover LifeWave? * What convinced her, as an MD, that this tech is what it says it is and that it really works.  * Brief overview of the science behind LifeWave. * How to use it. * What to expect? Timing, experience, etc. * Common misconceptions/FAQs:Red light panel/wand vs. the patchesDifferent patches from other companies * Wrap up: LifeWave is a powerful tool – but it’s not a replacement for a healthy lifestyle DISCLAIMER: All of the information provided in the podcast series is provided by Mynd Myself for your general knowledge only.

What's Light Got to Do with It? - Part 6: Food as a Light Nutrient

Interview with: Rachel Maurice, MD In this episode we explore:  How is light tied to food? (We evolved from UV, visible and IR, but man-made light is above and below the spectrum, microwaves to x-rays and gamma rays.) The most ignored nutrient in food. -Photosynthesis – light is IN the food. -Light encompasses visible and non-visible light-All visible and non-visible light affects us. -Seasonal and local eating. -Circadian Rhythms – including the timing of eating: -Breakfast, lunch, dinner, no snacking, last bite (5 hours before bedtime) e.g. Skipping breakfast? Coffee, then workout, then late lunch.-Food is broken down into fuel (electrons)– What does that mean, from your perspective? -How is it related to our mitochondrial fuel input, the earth, and the sun? -Fat, sugar, and protein-Deuterium (pronounced: ‘dooteerium’) -Whole foods vs. processed foods and seed oils-Salt -Wrap up: The timing is actually as NB as the food you eat.

What's Light Got to Do with It - Part 5: Light and Our Mitochondria

Interview with: Rachel Maurice, MD In this episode we explore:  * Mitochondria—the energy factories of the cells and therefore, our bodies!The powerhouses that give us life! Let’s talk about Energy…Why is Energy so important? * Where do we get our Energy from? * What are mitochondria and what are their functions? * Mitochondria produce infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) light: Pregnenelone (master steroid hormone made in mitochondria). Mitochonrial antennae. * Mitochondrial dysfunction and its relation to disease. * Wrap up: The focus of attention for general health is really a focus on mitochondrial health improvement.

What's Light Got to Do with It? Part 4: The Impact of Prolonging Our Daylight Hours

Interview with: Rachel Maurice, MD In this episode we explore:  * The detrimental effects of extending our daytime into the night – artificial light at night. * Circadian rhythms and how our biological functions are influenced by light and dark cycles. * The lightbulb and its impact on humanity. * Sunset – predominantly red and infrared (IR), telling us daytime turning to nighttime * Differences with artificial light: Indoors – artificial light, limited frequencies, imbalanced, lacking in red, IR & Ultraviolet (UV) * Melatonin and Cortisol fluctuations from light (natural and artificial) * Harms of excess blue light and artificial light at night (after sunset and before sunrise)(We have blue light receptors in our body) * Wrap up: Practical solutions DISCLAIMER: All of the information provided in the podcast series is provided by Mynd Myself for your general knowledge only.

What's Light Got to Do with It? Part 3: Light is the Missing Nutrient

Interview with: Rachel Maurice, MD In this episode we explore:  * We live in light, like fish live in water. * Why is light so NB to our health? Light holds the key to our health. * What impact does modernization have on that? * Full spectrum sunlight – qualities Natural light – full spectrum, dynamic, always >50% red and infrared (IR) sunrise to sunset regardless of weather Benefits of red and IR  * Differences with artificial light: Indoors – artificial light, limited frequencies, imbalanced, lacking in red, IR & Ultraviolet (UV) * Light from sunrise * UVA rise – starts many hormones and neurotransmitter production, including POMC and NO(we have UV receptors in our body) * UVB – vitamin D and Melanin production (Melanin has many incredible functions), also stops hormones incl sex hormonesThe sun converts cholesterol into vitamin D * Cholesterol – brain, nervous system, hormones * Light from sunset * Harms from sunscreen and Skin Cancer * Wrap up: Type of light we live under is the driver of our physiology DISCLAIMER: All of the information provided in the podcast series is provided by Mynd Myself for your general knowledge only.
