Episode notes
Bright Sunlight's Harmful Effects
- Bright sunlight causes oxidative stress and systemic inflammation through inflammatory cytokines.
- This inflammation can impair immune function, repair ability, and accelerate neuroinflammation and aging.
Protect Your Eyes from UV
- Wear wraparound polarized sunglasses with UV 400 certification to block 100% UVA and UVC light.
- Avoid midday sun, use broad-brimmed hats, stay in shade, and consider supplements like vitamin C, E, zinc, and molecular hydrogen for ocular health.
Cord Blood's Regenerative Power
- Cord blood contains youthful stem cells with long telomeres and regenerative molecules.
- Its effectiveness in aging involves clearing old tissue, refreshing the environment, then supplying nutrients and NAD.
