Missing philosophy: health as adaptation

“If you think about what health is, to me, it's the ability to adapt to your environment. If you can adapt… and then return to homeostasis, that's health.” says Dr. Stephen Hussey, returning to the Quantum Biology Collective Podcast to upend everything you think you know about diet, exercise, and the story of health itself.

A successful chiropractor, Dr. Stephen Hussey devoted his life to exercising, following all the right nutrition advice, and mastering mainstream health protocols—until an unexpected heart attack in his early 30s shattered his certainty. That event launched him on a quest to uncover not just what’s missing from Western diets, but what’s fundamentally absent from our medical and health education systems: a deep, quantum-biological understanding of how human beings interact with their environment.

Now an author, researcher, and faculty member at the Institute of Applied Quantum Biology, Dr. Stephen Hussey shares how the focus on diet, exercise, and even supplements remains a “reductionist” misconception—one that ignores the primal roles of light, environment, EMFs, and the body’s need for coherence. He reveals the gaps in both medical and chiropractic education, and explains why the biological mechanisms behind adaptation, circadian rhythm, and environmental signals are essential for true health.

Join today’s Quantum Biology Collective Podcast for a radical reexamination of what keeps us healthy, why institutional approaches so often fail, and how you can move beyond mere biochemistry to tap into the quantum and environmental foundations of optimal health.

5 Key Takeaways

1. Upgrade your health paradigm—expand your focus beyond diet and exercise to include environment, light, EMFs, and relationships.
2. Take radical ownership—your daily choices shape your biology more than any institution or standardized advice ever will.
3. Don’t wait for permission—start experimenting, researching, and adapting quantum biology concepts in your life right now.
4. Demand coherence in your body—prioritize practices like sunlight exposure, thoughtful movement, and time in nature to restore natural balance.
5. Seek out practitioners who educate and empower—if your healthcare isn’t evolving with science, find guides who challenge the status quo and support your sovereignty.

Memorable Quotes

"If you think about what health is, to me, it's the ability to adapt to your environment. If you can adapt to any signal or stimulus in your life, and your body can have a reaction and then return to homeostasis, that's health."

"When you look at human physiology and biology, most of our education is from a biochemical and structural perspective. But we have to think about every environmental stimulus our bodies encounter—light, sound, relationships, toxins, movement, food, EMF—all these signals tell our body what to do. Most formal education is missing that philosophy of health."

"The most important thing that looking at things from a quantum perspective has given me is that we will never be smarter than nature. At some point, you have to throw up your hands and surrender to the higher power that is nature. If you put yourself in that environment, your physiology knows what to do and you'll see the result."
