RED BALANCES BLUE AND UV LIGHT

More evidence for the benefits of using all the light.
You don't have to worry about missing colors or spectrums of light in sunlight....only artificial produced or altered light (glass etc).

Most people easily understand whole foods are healthier than processed foods.

The same goes for light.

Sunlight, starlight, firelight are the unprocessed, whole foods of light.
Red controls the toxicity of too much blue. Can you show me any new evidence for this?

You don't want to play that with your health. Get blue light without red light and thats exactly what you are doing.

HERE'S PROOF APPLE NIGHTSHIFT ISNT GOOD ENOUGH AT NIGHT FOR YOUR HEALTH

YOU NEED BLUE LIGHT BLOCKING GLASSES & A SPECIAL "CIRCADIAN CONTROL PANEL" FOR YOUR PHONE

In this study, you see that using a regular ipad at night in the three hours prior to their normal bedtimes showed that one-hour and two-hour exposures suppressed melatonin by 23% and 38%.

The blue light goggles (dont be confused these are not blue blockers) in the study were designed to emit 470nm blue light at 40lux suppressed the most melatonin.

The Apple Night Shift modes reduced that melatonin suppression to between 10 and 20% which is better but still significant and chronic melatonin suppression equivalent to nothing you would find in a natural dark night environment.

But....

The orange colored blue and partially green light blocking glasses (blocking up to 525nm) basically prevented any melatonin suppression.

They also say that DIMMING the BRIGHTNESS settings on your phone can further help reduce melatonin suppression from the artificial light.

So the moral of the story is, not only is Night Shift not good enough to preserve your good health, but if your nights are not naturally dark and include artificial lighting and screens, you need a good pair of blue light blocking glasses and you need to DIM your lighting as much as possible.

You need to install our free blue light diet "circadian control panel" which works better than Apple nightshift because it removes more blue/green light and dims your screen.

And if you don't already have a pair, go get a pair of blue light blocking glasses that work.

You can find instructions for the free circadian control panel and our favorite blue light blockers below.Image

Can Light Emitted from Smartphone Screens and Taking Selfies Cause Premature Aging and Wrinkles?

YES lol.

"Exposure to light emitted from electronic devices on human skin cells, even in case of short exposures, can increase the generation of reactive oxygen species.... Especially, extrinsic skin aging can be caused by oxidative stress."

How many times has your dermatologist told you that screenlight or LED you use at night is causing your wrinkles?

Cover your skin, filter your screenlight and use lights made for night. Suggestions below.Image
"Recent studies show that exposure of human skin cells to light emitted from electronic devices, even for exposures as short as 1 hour, may cause reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, apoptosis, and necrosis."

THE NUMBER ONE CANCER IN THE US NAVY IS MELANOMA SO THEY DID A STUDY AND FOUND.....

"personnel in indoor occupations had a higher age-adjusted incidence rate of melanoma. Persons who worked in occupations that required spending time both indoors and outdoors had the lowest rate. Incidence rates of melanoma were higher on the trunk than on the more commonly sunlight-exposed head and arms."

and

"Findings on the anatomical site of melanoma from this study suggest a protective role for brief, regular exposure to sunlight and fit with recent laboratory studies that have shown vitamin D to suppress growth of malignant melanoma cells in tissue culture. A mechanism is proposed in which vitamin D inhibits previously initiated melanomas from becoming clinically apparent."

The Navy apparently knows what your "melanoma expert" dermatologist doesnt....

Melanoma happens most frequently indoors where there is no sun but lots of artificial light and vitamin d that is made by the sun inhibits melanoma from being clinically relevant.

The sun is protective and not a main cause of melanoma.Image
I meant to say #1 most deadly cancer

GOT MIGRAINE HEADACHES, GIRL?

This study shows Circadian Rhythm disruption (dark days and bright nights) increased the number of these kinds of headaches women get AND increased their severity.

The women with circadian rhythm disruption got almost DOUBLE the amount of migraines each month!

Simply increasing the amount of sleep did not fix the problem as there is a such thing as bad sleep (for instance drugging yourself to sleep with pills or antihistamines, sleeping at the wrong time or blasting yourself with artificial light from your iphone before bed and reducing the amount of melatonin released)

If you are blasting yourself with phone or tv light at night, followed by waking up and blasting yourself with more phone or screen light before you see the real sun in the morning and then spending most of the day working indoors under artificial lights, guess what?

You got major circadian rhythm disruption, cupcake.

Your circadian migraine prescription is...

See real unfiltered sunlight first thing in the morning before anything else. You need to reset and advance your circadian phase. This means you need to super bright light of the sun when you get up in the morning. (If it is winter and/or you can get outside in the morning you can use a bright bank of incandescent lights, a bright red light therapy machine (maybe) or a modified SAD light like the one I link to in the replies below).

Get outside multiple times during the day for circadian rhythm reinforcing and melatonin building sunlight breaks. Turn off or block all artificial light at night by wearing blue light blocking glasses as recommended in the bio on this page.

For supplemental bright morning light I like the Sky Portals from @getchroma. Code "bluelightdiet" will get you a discount.

GOT GUT PROBLEMS? START TO USE LIGHT.....

1) SUNLIGHT helps diversify and repair gut microbiome.

2) RED LIGHT lowers inflammation stimulates tissue repair & improves microbiome.

3) UVB LIGHT on skin increases the good bacteria and decreases the bad.

4) UVA LIGHT stimulates nitric oxide and nitric oxide gastrointestinal mucosal defense and reduces gut disease generation.

5) CIRCADIAN RHYTHM regulates much of gastrointestinal physiology including cell proliferation, motility, digestion, absorption, and electrolyte balance.

If your gastroenterologist or gut doctor doesnt mention any or really ALL of the above, they are preventing you from getting better or slowing your recovery by at least 50%.

Maybe get a new doctor. They might not be that concerned with your healing and just want you as an eternal patient to help pay for their vacation home and Porsche payments.

So start here.....

1) Sunlight is free. Learn how the sun works. Start slow, get outside and get sunlight on your gut and as much skin as possible in the early morning and around sunset. Then go out for UVB a little around solar noon. You will build up a tolerance over time. Don't rush.

2) Practice BRIGHT days and DARK nights for circadian rhythm optimization. Go outside ALOT during the day. Daytime indoor lighting is way too dark. Make your nights as dark as you can. Wear blue blocking glasses if you have any light at night. My favorite glasses can be found in the replys below.

3) After you do all of the above, you can think about supplementing red and infrared light by shining directly on your gut. My favorite red light therapy machines can be found in the replys below.

4) IF UVB sun is missing from your location due to winter or you are injured and cant get outside, you can supplement UVB light using a lamp. Directly on the gut. Go slow. baby steps. See my favorite UVB lamps in the replys below.

For a temporary full spectrum light therapy approach, you can also add in the most cutting edge light therapy machine on the market mentioned in the replys below.

But remember, nothing beats real sunlight in your eyes and on your skin at various times throughout the day.

Ok. Thats enough for today.Image

WAIT, WHAT.......LIGHT THROUGH WINDOWS GIVE YOU MELANOMA AND NOT DIRECT SUNLIGHT?

There is a secret fact your dermatologist doesn't want you to know.

A paradox exists between indoor and outdoor workers because indoor workers get three to nine times less solar UV light (290–400 nm) exposure than outdoor workers get, yet only indoor workers have an increasing incidence of MELANOMA.

So there is something about being indoors that increases your risk of getting melanoma.

Artificial light, especially at night, is one of those things that increase risk but....

This paper shows that increased UVA light exposure and decreased Vitamin D levels can also increase your risk for melanoma.

What increases UVA and decreases Vitamin D?

Most windows.

Depending on the coatings and how they are made, most windows will increase the relative amount of UVA light and block most of the UVB light which will decrease the amount of Vitamin D you can make if you are living and working indoors during the day.

SO its not really the sun that causes the cancer but manmade artificial lights and/or an artificial spectrum of sunlight (artificial because it has been altered by something manmade (the windows).

If you do work indoors a lot during the day, make sure to take multiple sun breaks outside or at the very least OPEN a window.Image
"we now propose that indoor solar UVA exposures, which cause mutations [45] and depletes vitamin D3 in the skin [34], and inadequately maintained amounts of cutaneous vitamin D3 can promote CMM (melanoma)."
