Circadian Health, Quantum Biology & Leptin Sensitivity w/ Sarah Kleiner [Top Episode of 2024!]
The Red Light Report
Harnessing Diet and Light for Health
This chapter explores the connection between diet, light therapy, and overall wellbeing, emphasizing the role of red light therapy during pregnancy. It introduces the concept of leptin sensitivity and its transformative effects on metabolism, sleep, and energy levels, along with a practical 21-day reset protocol. The discussion includes personal experiences with dietary changes and the significance of morning routines, highlighting how simple adjustments can lead to profound health improvements.
This is the third and final top episode of 2024 I wanted to share with you all. Happy New Year and enjoy this amazing conversation with Sarah Kleiner!

I jump at any chance I get to listen, learn and converse with an expert in the area of circadian and quantum health. Luckily, one of my favorite educators in this domain, Sarah Kleiner, was available to sit down for an engaging chat. Sarah is phenomenal at breaking down rather complex subjects and lucidly explaining the "low hanging fruit" of quantum health with such simplicity, even a cave man could do it! Yes, pun intended.
In today's conversation, we cover an array of topics ranging from morning routines and sun exposure to the importance of eating breakfast and leptin sensitivity to red light therapy's impact on wellness to the role of mitochondria in quantum health to a relatively new theory showing that deuterium-depleted water may be a more important end-product of oxidative phosphorylation than ATP (yes, that token of energy)... and much, much more!
Sarah Kleiner is a Quantum Health Coach with the Quantum Biology Collective (levels 1 & 2), a Certified Nutrition Coach with NASM, and just completed the New Biology Curriculum with Dr. Tom Cowan. Sarah has over 14 years of experience working one on one with clients to optimize nutrition, lifestyle & mindset. Her goal is to shift the paradigm when it comes to circadian rhythms, health & light, and help people integrate these principles into their lives in a modern world.
As I mention in this episode, Sarah has a monumental archive of quantum and circadian health education on her Instagram feed (@sarahkleinerwellness) that you could spend days and days sifting through and learning to your heart's content.... which I highly, highly recommend you do. She also has amazing free education and deeper dives via her courses that can be found on her website (link can be found in the podcast show notes).
I hope you enjoy the conversation today with Sarah Kleiner. Please share this episode with family, friends and colleagues if you find the content especially interesting and/or impactful.
