HYDRATE with Tracy Duhs

36. Mike Belkowski: Non-Native Lights, Malillumination + Why Modern Health Needs Red Light Therapy


Listen Later

Are you malilluminated? What does that even mean? Well, you know what it means when someone is malnourished. It’s the same, but being malnourished with the light you’re intaking. Malillumination is not getting the correct light and bombarding yourself with non-native lights and that’s exactly what I chat about with my latest HYDRATE guest, Mike Belkowski.   Mike argues that when you surrounding yourself with blue light, Bluetooth, wifi, laptop, T.V., and your cell phone, it’s just as bad as eating Mcdonald's. In today’s modern world, we are constantly exposed to non-native lighting, and getting in the correct natural lighting daily is a struggle.    The two of us discuss how we can begin to increase our intake of correct lighting to ensure we’re getting a healthy dose daily for optimal health. We also discuss what non-native lights are, what they’re doing to your health, how to increase our sun tolerance, and supplementing our sun exposure with red light therapy.    Mike is the founder of BioLightandis, bringing game-changing technology to red light therapy around the world. As a physical therapist, he has worked with patients across the lifespan spectrum and has an impressive amount of experience with Integrative Dry Needling, Mulligan mobilizations, cupping, and rehabilitating orthopedic pathologies, running biomechanics, and concussion injuries.     What we discuss:    09:50:What is the difference between red and near-infrared? 10:31: Why is it so important to get full-spectrum sunlight? 11:30:The key about water on a cellular level 13:35: What are the mitochondria and why is it so important? 22:06:What amount of sun exposure can we tolerate and what does that tell us about our health? 25:33:When should we have red light therapy? 32:29:How red light therapy optimize your health 34:37:How to choose between red light or near-infrared therapy 36:51: What about infrared saunas? 41:04: How does Tracy practice being present 45:34:Helping our children be more grounded 51:37:Why is there so much focus on the red spectrum? 54:04:Redlight therapy: why more is not better 56:37:Howto use Mike's devices   Find more from Mike…    Instagram:
