ON TODAY'S EPISODE

  • What exactly is Artificial Light at Night (ALAN), and how does it affect us?
  • How did humans originally adapt to natural light, and what happens when we disrupt this cycle?
  • What are the specific effects of ALAN on brain function, particularly cognition, memory, and emotional regulation?
  • How does ALAN impact the pineal gland and melatonin production, and why is this important for sleep and immune function?
  • What damage can chronic exposure to ALAN cause to our eyes, and how does it affect retinal health and melatonin production?
  • In what ways does ALAN alter metabolic processes in the liver and pancreas, and what are the consequences for glucose and fat metabolism?
  • How does ALAN affect the adrenal glands and our stress response, and what role does cortisol play in this process?
  • What impact does ALAN have on our muscles, fat storage, and insulin sensitivity, and why does this contribute to metabolic dysfunction?
  • How does exposure to ALAN disrupt gut health and the microbiome, and what are the implications for inflammation and digestion?
  • What diseases are linked to ALAN exposure, and how can this contribute to conditions like obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and mood disorders?
