What is blue light addiction doing to our children?
In this episode of The Evolving Wellness podcast, I chat with Daniel White about his studies on the impact of blue light on our children’s sleep, mental health, and overall health. He also shares which low-hanging fruit parents can turn to help their children with these issues, such as blue light-blocking glasses.
Daniel also shares what he believes his message is getting across so easily among children and their parents. With mental health solutions and resources being scarce but the crisis being at its peak, it’s easier than ever to command attention.
Daniel White is a Registered Nutritionist (MSc, ANutr) and Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach (FMCHC) with extensive educational, research, and clinical experience in the fields of nutrition, psychology, stress management, sleep science, health education, and human behavior change.
