Summary

In this episode of Align podcast, Matt Maruca and I talk about all things light. What is it, where does it come from and how does it affect our everyday lives? Light plays a really important part in our physical and mental health. It can alter our physiology, sleep, pain levels, sensitivity and even sexual function. We just need to learn how it associates with the human organism and how to balance our intake of it. We also discuss the villainization of the sun, how it relates to our existence, and how light can potentially be one of the best human healing mechanisms. Matt Maruca is the founder and CEO of RA Optics, a stylish and science-based blue-light blocking glasses company focused on helping people improve their health using the science of light therapy for mitochondrial repair.
