Today's guest is Dr. Jack Kruse, a neurosurgeon and health optimizer who takes a unique approach to wellness through what he calls "quantum biology." Dr. Kruse has dedicated his career to exploring the connection between light, electromagnetism, and human health. He's known for his controversial perspectives on how modern technology, artificial light, and high-latitude living negatively impact our cellular function and mitochondrial health.
In our conversation, Dr. Kruse shares eye-opening insights about the dangers of blue light, why grounding is essential for optimal health, and how sunlight exposure affects everything from cancer risk to mental health. We dive deep into why vitamin D supplements aren't a substitute for natural sunlight, the problems with electric saunas, and his provocative take on why decisions about where we live might be the most important health choices we make.
