    The Sun Deficiency Epidemic: Could Sunlight Be the Missing Link in Modern Health? With Gerardo Gutierrez

    In this enlightening episode, I explore the power of sunlight on health and well-being with Gerardo Gutierrez, affectionately known as Guti. Guti shares his personal journey from battling pre-diabetes, low testosterone, and depression to achieving a healthier lifestyle through regular sun exposure. We talk about common misconceptions regarding sunlight, emphasizing its overlooked benefits and the historical significance of sun therapy. We examine the crucial roles of visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light in boosting our physical and mental health, with a particular focus on the importance of UVB rays for vitamin D production. For those living in less sunlit regions, we discuss the advantages of red light therapy lamps as a safe alternative.   In this episode: Why Guti challenges the narrative that sun exposure is harmful. How historical examples demonstrate sunlight's healing power, from World War I hospitals to modern red light therapy. Why cultural shifts increased sunscreen use and reduced natural health benefits from sunlight. How visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light contribute to physical and mental health. Why UVB rays are crucial for vitamin D production and overall well-being. How red light therapy lamps can benefit those in sun-deprived regions. Why reconnecting with sunlight can boost mood, immunity, and hormone balance. How sunlight exposure is linked to reduced risks of cardiovascular and autoimmune diseases. Why the angle of the sun affects the type of UV rays received. How optimal UVB exposure occurs when the sun is high in the sky. The potential for UVB rays to become a significant health trend in the coming years. Why it's important to balance blue light exposure for better circadian rhythm and health.  Get 10% off your UVB VItamin D Red Light Mitolux Box here with coupon code KM10!  BEAM Minerals: If you’re trying to balance your hormones, head to https://www.beamminerals.com/discount/HORMONE and use code HORMONE for 20% off your first order.
