Cameron Borg, host of the Rocci Flow Nutrition Podcast, hit it out of the park with his talk ‘Sunlight: The Foundation of Health’
You won’t get this information from your doctor, a governmental health body, or even your dietary-focussed practitioner
This talk was delivered at Regenerate Albury 2024, a decentralised health summit based on circadian&quantum biology, ancestral nutrition & regenerative farming
Join us in Sydney on March 22nd and Melbourne 23rd for our next summit. Link in bio.
Use of red light post-sunset reduces (but does not eliminate) disruption to your circadian rhythm
This is because lacks melanopically active light in blue/green wavelengths
The body has evolved over billions of years to be exquisitely sensitive to these wavelengths, which until late 1800s, always signalled daytime and triggered daytime-specific hormonal pathways ( like cortisol spiking for food hunting/gathering)
As you might imagine, the problem becomes when we expose ourselves to artificial sources of blue/green light AT THE WRONG TIME and in an ALIEN FORM (energy saving LED bulbs: lack red/NIR, UV, flicker, etc)
Downstream consequences of this artificial light lifestyle are circadian rhythm disruption and mitochondrial dysfunction...leading to every flavour of chronic disease
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is the biggest health problem few are talking about

The science is clear - artificial light & circadian rhythm disruption contributes to metabolic dysfunction & diabetes
Only thing left is to argue about effect size. Which is variable based on individual and no doubt exacerbated by processed food environment

It doesn’t appear that NASA or SpaceX are doing their due diligence when it comes to human health and space flight. The engineering is decades ahead of the space biology research. They will inevitably arrive at these problems probably when more people go into space.
I just recorded a fascinating interview with world leaders in quantum biology Prof Geoffrey Guy & Prof Alastair Nunn of the Guy Foundation
We talked about how light & magnetism affects mitochondrial physiology
And the (disastrous) implications of space travel for mitochondria and human health
Cutting edge of science and medicine is happening at the level of protons, electrons and photons. This is quantum biology.
Regenerate summits are great for connecting with like minded people

*reduce rate of heteroplasmy. Which inevitably accumulates as a function of living on earth. Oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria inevitably results in production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which damage mtDNA
How fast you age, or what chronic disease you eventually get is a depends on your mitochondrial heteroplasmy (rate of accumulation of mitochondrial DNA mutations)
Optimal lifestyle practices reduce mitochondrial heteroplasmy and therefore compress morbidity & postpone death
Key among them is strict circadian rhythm, which produces melatonin, guardian of mitochondrial genome & regulator of apoptosis & autophagy

Dr. Jack Kruse: "The problem is [doctors] have to be judged by people who understand what's going on. That's the reason why politicians and healthcare administrators need to be removed from the system. Doctors have to judge other doctors. And if the health outcomes aren't there, guess what? We are going to create better doctors post-residency than we did pre-residency.
"It doesn't mean that we're going to completely throw all of our colleagues away who've been centralized through medical school or through naturopathic school or chiropractic school. We're going to judge them on their outcomes going forward.
"And then after a period of two, three, four decades, we will know definitively whose ideas are truly best that raise the public health.
"[…] This idea is not Jack's idea; Jack stole this idea from evolution. It's survival of the fittest, because the doctors who participate will have to be survival of the wisest.
"Some of the things that they do in writing say, statin prescriptions, or fluoro radiating someone for minimally-invasive spine disease, or putting an artificial disc in someone. It may turn out that when your metrics are compared against somebody say, who uses the photoelectric effect to improve the central retinal pathway and improve the leptin-melanocortin pathway, is better. Then guess what? That's how we take out bad ideas from medicine, and we do it without the influence of the people making the devices, making the drugs, or paying for the service. That's the big issue.
"And the problem is remember those stakeholders, they have for 50 to 70 years in centralized systems, have usurped the doctor's control. That has been the single biggest problem. If you look at healthcare expenditures, at least in Western medicine, what has grown faster than doctor salaries? Administrator salaries. Why why do we need that? We don't. Because it certainly hasn't improved the public health."

The industrial agriculture & processed food systems are inter-related and have their origins in monetary distortion
Inflation in currency has begotten inflation in food prices with concurrent loss of food micronutrient quality & introduction of chemical/herbicidal contamination
This recent diagram by nostr:npub124uatsq6pv74trzwvt34y4sx2z0uflhse7tkrv0pl69e8kcsfhkse30zsu elegantly illustrates these connections

Regulation of hepatic circadian metabolism by the E3 ubiquitin ligase HRD1-controlled CREBH/PPARα transcriptional program
'HRD1/Sel1L mediates polyubiquitination and degradation of the CREBH protein across the circadian cycle to modulate rhythmic expression of the genes encoding the rate-limiting enzymes or regulators in fatty acid (FA) oxidation, triglyceride (TG) lipolysis, lipophagy, and gluconeogenesis.'

Health and wealth are inseparable. Why?
The biggest barriers that I see preventing people implementing circadian lifestyle practices to prevent and reverse their chronic diseases is their occupation.
Spending 42 hours a week under anti-human fluorescent lighting because they are financially compelled.
Financial freedom = means to cultivate an environment conducive to optimal health.
Light through the eye is the most important zeitgeiber or ‘time giver’ to entrain your circadian rhythm
Circadian rhythms run all your biological processes
Decentralised health begins by viewing early AM sun
