39. Scott Zimmerman: Amazing Effects of Infrared Light on the Human Body
Manage episode 379328630 series 3424983
Scott Zimmerman is an optics engineer and light researcher who has been studying the effect of non-visible light on the human body. He has made some fascinating and unexpected discoveries about the ways our bodies use infrared light from the sun and how melatonin, the so-called hormone of darkness, is actually being produced constantly in our mitochondria during the day. Truly groundbreaking stuff. It frames the harm of an indoor, artificially-lit existence in even poorer light excuse the pun ;)
This is a sometimes complex but highly informative interview, and is a great complement to my Jack Kruse Series. Enjoy!
