0:00.0	Welcome to my mommy's podcast. This episode is sponsored by Von Charge. And I love so many of their products,
0:09.9	from their red light face mask to their sauna blankets and everything in between. They focus on
0:15.4	high-end wellness tech. And if you're interested in how light can help you, which I talk a lot about,
0:20.6	Bon Charge has so much to offer.

0:32.6	The frequencies of red in near infrared light stimulate cellular activity and a mitochondrial level, which I talk a lot about
