75. Dr. Jack Kruse: The Toxic Lighting Crisis And How To Fix It, Part One
The Life Stylist
The Neurosurgeon's Role in the Recovery of Spinal Injury
"I may not have to do the big crunch injuries anymore because a lot of that stuff comes in at nighttime when people are out, you know, doing shit," he says. "That's kind of the thing I'm trying to move away from. While it was great when I was in my 20s, 30s and 40s, and even early in my 50s, it's one of the things that takes a toll on the surgeon."
What if I told you that your diet and exercise habits are not the most important factors in determining your health, and longevity? Sounds crazy right? Well, according to much of the latest scientific research, it's not. It turns out that the lighting that most of us spend the vast majority of our lives in is 'junk light.' And it might just be worse for your health than junk food.
So how do you know if the lighting in your home and work environment toxic? Unless you've gone to great lengths to optimize all of the light that you're exposed to your daily life, it's a given that your brain, eyes, and even sleep are being adversely affected.
As much as we all love and depend on artificial lighting to allow us to operate after dark, the fact is that we humans have evolved to thrive in three types of light: sun, moon, and fire. The LED and fluorescent lighting that illuminates our phones, computers, televisions, homes, cars, streets, and places of work is not natural and is extremely detrimental to our well-being on many levels.
Our guest Dr. Jack Kruse takes us on a fascinating journey into the heart of this current crisis in great detail. You will be shocked to learn of the multitudes of health issues and diseases directly linked not only to our exposure to 'non-native' lighting but also to the dangerous electromagnetic frequencies (EMF's) that unfortunately blanket the entire planet.
In the tradition of The Life Stylist Podcast, Jack delivers not only the bad news but also a host of straightforward, practical tips on how to still enjoy the modern conveniences of artificial lighting, and electronics, while mitigating some of the serious risks involved.
If you know someone who depends on and enjoys their technology, but also strives to maintain optimum health, this is the show to share with them.
