Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina. Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa, and I am super pumped for today's episode. We are talking all about my daily routine, what I eat in a day, what I do in terms of supplementation, workouts, movement, and any kind of biohacks. I've been getting a lot of questions

from you all on what I do. And I wanted to dedicate a specific episode just to my daily

routine and what I eat in the day and do supplement and biohack wise. So I'm super excited to get

into this episode. Let's take a quick break and we will jump into today's episode.

Friends, I want to tell you about a very important nutrient that many of us are deficient in

and not even aware of it. And that nutrient is light and specifically red light. I am so

passionate and obsessed with the incredible amount of science behind red light

therapy's ability to support our mitochondrial health. Now, our mitochondria, as you probably know,

are responsible for helping us to do pretty much everything in our bodies at the cellular level.

Now, when it comes to energy levels, our immunity, our skin

health and beauty, and even our metabolic health and fitness, so much is connected back to

our mitochondria's ability to function optimally. Now, we talk on this podcast all the time

about different strategies from exercise, intermittent fasting, doing resistance training, and getting lots of autophagy and all the science behind mitochondrial biogenesis or the creation of new mitochondria.

But one of the best ways to actually support our mitochondria is using red light therapy.

And we can do that in the comfort of our own

homes with red light therapy panels. Now red light is a wavelength that is in the sun naturally,

but so many of us spend over 90% of our time indoors, especially in the wintertime. And we really are deficient, not only in light, but specifically

in the wavelengths of red light that really support our mitochondrial health. Now, with red light

therapy panels, you can actually get concentrated doses of red light that can help support

and boost your mitochondria's ability to function optimally

and the benefits are absolutely incredible and all documented in the scientific literature. I have

never really seen anything else perhaps other than protein that has this much of a positive
