The Role of Light in Health
Light significantly impacts various aspects of health, including circadian rhythms, brain function, and cellular health. Natural light from the sun provides a spectrum of wavelengths that penetrate the skin and stimulate important bodily processes, such as collagen production and mitochondrial function. For optimal health, it’s essential to recreate ancestral lighting conditions in our living environments, moving away from harsh artificial lights like LEDs and fluorescents. Incorporating more natural light into our lives can not only improve physical health but also enhance emotional well-being.
