Carrie Bennett, a quantum health practitioner, shares insights on optimizing health through circadian biology, addressing hormone balance and weight regulation, optimizing hormone balance through fasting and light exposure, discussing non-native EMFs impact, and optimizing light environment for health and fertility.
Optimizing light exposure can improve hormone balance, fertility, and weight loss.
Managing non-native EMF exposure is crucial for hormonal balance and overall health.
Deep dives
Regenerate Allbury Health Summit and Expert Speakers
The Regenerate Allbury Health Summit features renowned experts like Pran Yoganathan, Mel the Midwife, Tristan Scott, Bork, Kira Lee, Cindy O 'Meara, Jake Walke, David Bushell, and Stuart McWilliam. Scheduled for August 3rd and 4th, this event offers insights into cutting -edge health and agricultural topics for lifestyle improvement.
The Benefits of Direct Farm Sourcing and Discounts
Directly sourcing produce from regenerative farms like Wolkie Farms in Albury eliminates concerns about animal welfare and food quality. Wolkie Farms offers beef, lamb, pastured pork, and eggs with a 10% discount using the code 'Dr. Max' at checkout, promoting chemical -free practices and ethical treatment of animals.
Optimizing Fertility through Circadian Health
Kerry Bennett emphasizes the significant impact of circadian biology on fertility. By aligning light exposure with natural patterns, optimizing mitochondrial health, and considering factors like leptin and cortisol in the fertility equation, individuals can improve their chances of conceiving naturally and addressing infertility.
Non-Native EMF and Its Effects on Health
Non -native EMFs, including Wi -Fi and 5G, can disrupt mitochondrial function, leading to increased oxidative stress and hormonal imbalances. Kerry Bennett highlights the importance of managing EMF exposure, promoting strategies like limiting device usage, hardwiring workstations, and using orange -tinted blue blockers for better sleep and hormone regulation.
Carrie Bennett joins me to discuss the effect of our light environment on hormones and fertility, why drinking coffee then fasting till midday is a bad idea, how WiFi and other sources of non-native EMF are harming you, why should see the morning sunrise.
Carrie Bennett is a quantum health practitioner and educator. She is the lead faculty member and on the Board of Advisors for the Quantum Biology Collective, the world’s premier certification for Applied Quantum Biology in clinical practice.
