NOTE

Embrace Natural Light for Optimal Health

Red and infrared light play a crucial role in stimulating mitochondrial function and enhancing energy production, independent of diet or physical activity. Modern indoor environments, dominated by artificial lighting, significantly lack these essential light wavelengths, leading to deficiencies that disrupt our physiological processes. Common materials, like window glass, further diminish our exposure to infrared light. To counter this deficiency and improve metabolic health, it is imperative to increase natural light exposure by spending more time outdoors, aligning with our evolutionary biological needs.
