“I’m not going to become a recluse; I’m just going to embrace it and find something positive about being wherever I am,” says Dr. Sara Pugh, returning for her third appearance on the Quantum Biology Collective podcast. Dr. Sara discusses how to live an optimal quantum healthy lifestyle no matter your location, sharing insights from her experiences in a remote Swiss mountain village, the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia, and her home in Yorkshire, England. She highlights the unique quantum benefits and challenges of each place, focusing on maximizing and appreciating all aspects of her surroundings, and choosing to view the world through love instead of fear.

Dr. Sara also delves into the significance of structured water, emphasizing its importance on par with food and nutrition. She shares how she enhances her water with sacred geometry, filtering out negative information and incorporating positive energy. This perspective aligns with the belief of several thought leaders that humans are vessels for this sacred element.

Join today’s episode of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to learn practical tips for making the most of your environment, discover the healthiest airport and airline options, and hear about the humorous lengths Dr. Sara goes to create total darkness in her various homes.

Quotes

• “I think it’s to do with this drinking water with energy and information in it, it can be profoundly life-changing because we are made of water and plasma, but the water, like I was saying before, some people think that we’re the vessels that carry the consciousness.” (19:13 | Dr. Sara Pugh) 
• “Everything is energy and information and the information is more important than the energy.” (20:58 | Dr. Sara Pugh) 
• “If someone waves a fancy machine at me, no, I’m not interested. If it’s something to do with water or nature or crystals or sacred geometry or all that kind of natural stuff I can’t hurt myself with, that doesn’t plug in the wall, that our ancients did, then I’m really up for it because it’s, like you said, it’s about reconnecting with natural things that aren’t very expensive and even if it’s all nonsense it will just do nothing, it won’t hurt me.” (22:41 | Dr. Sara Pugh) 
• “What I’ve also learned and want to say about this is, and it’s something about the fear and love mindset: I’ve decided now, I can’t do anything about a lot of these things, so I’m not just going to become a recluse and live in a tent in Wales or not travel because of EMFs and being off the ground and all of these things. I’m just going to embrace it and find something positive about being in an airport or being in an airplane.”  (50:33 | Dr. Sara Pugh)

“It’s amazing what happens when you step out of your comfort zone.” In the inaugural episode of “Quantum Healthy,” Meredith joins co-hosts Laura Kissman and Andeea Rae, alumnae of the Applied Quantum Certification program, as the first guest! They delve into the necessity of belief in quantum biology and quantum health, challenging conventional medicine and rigid scientific paradigms. Meredith shares the origin story of the Quantum Biology Collective and teases an exciting new direction it will soon take.

They acknowledge Jim Al-Khalili and Johnjoe McFadden for their pioneering book, “Life on the Edge,” which introduced quantum biology to the public, and Dr. Jack Kruse for linking quantum biology to practical health applications and boldly advocating for it. Meredith sees her role as making quantum biology accessible to everyone, empowering them to connect with it.

The creation of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast was as non-linear as quantum biology itself. Meredith discusses the importance of leveraging strengths, learning to pivot, and stepping out of established lanes—valuable lessons for new startups.

Quotes

• “We're not just going to a chemical level, we're going to a subatomic level and looking at how biology functions from that perspective…what I was interested in and what the Institute of Applied Quantum Biology is interested in is like, ‘Okay, so if this is true, what does that mean practically? What does that mean for people in their everyday lives?...And I think that's the door that quantum biology opens up really, really wide.” (6:28 | Meredith Oke)
• “How many times have you heard, ‘Oh, it’s just an anomaly.’ It’s like, well, no, that’s something that can’t be explained by your formula or your paradigm…just because we can’t explain it, doesn’t mean it’s an anomaly.”  (8:13 | Meredith Oke)
• “If that guru repels people or there are certain people who don’t like him, then they’re lost to the movement…So, from my perspective I thought, that’s what needs to happen with this it needs to belong to the people, as it were, so that everyone feels empowered to access it and connect to it.” 17:57 | Meredith Oke) 
• “I would love for people to embrace their strengths, to see that about themselves…you have gifts, and so find them…You know how to make them happen, so why wouldn’t you just do it?’ That was a huge growth moment for me and I hope it helps other people to just do it, do their thing. Do your thing.”  (37:20 | Meredith Oke)

“We’re sort of becoming the AA of the digital world,” says today’s guest Andrew Laubacher, executive director of the new nonprofit Humanality. The organization helps college students redefine their relationship with technology, encouraging intentional use and control rather than being controlled by it. Students participate in various levels of “detox,” including reducing screen time, trading smartphones for “dummy” phones, and deleting social media accounts.

Andrew knows the struggle firsthand. As a touring musician, he was constantly on social media to promote his band and gigs, leading to a smartphone addiction. After removing himself from social media, he experienced numerous benefits, such as an increased attention span, deepened relationships, and an enhanced capacity for learning.

Humanality is not anti-technology. Instead, it aims to help young people realize their true selves, free from the need for social validation, novelty, and positive feedback that devices exploit, while fostering real-world interpersonal relationships.

In today’s episode of The Quantum Biology Collective podcast, Andrew and host Meredith Oke discuss the natural world as our portal to God’s grace and why more adults should incorporate play into their lives.

Quotes

• “I just started to notice in myself, over the year, man, I was on this way too much. I was way too concerned with myself. It was making me really anxious because I was literally able to see everything happening in the world all at once, and I really do believe the human person was not designed to experience an attribute of God, which is namely His omnipresence. He is the only one that has the capacity to be able to handle that power, but I had it in the palm of my hand.” (9:52 | Andrew Laubacher) 
• “Studying the minds behind these designs, they really weren’t well-intentioned and they weren’t really thinking of our well-being. They were thinking of our attention and, really, monetizing it.” (14:09 | Andrew Laubacher) 
• “I do believe people are waking up to the deleterious effects of online life. And really how we believe at Humanality that engaging reality is worth it, and that being a human person, in person, while utilizing the good of technology is more optimal.”  (15:46 | Andrew Laubacher) 
• “There’s sort of a biological mismatch we’re in right now, where pretty much all the insta-ficatation of everything…and I honestly enjoy a lot of them, but they’re also, largely, not what our biology was designed for and making us sick. So, it’s this really weird experience where the convenience is amazing but it’s kind of also killing us.” (24:20 | Andrew Laubacher)

“Why take the chance with light?” says Andy Mant, founder of Bon Charge, a holistic wellness company that manufactures blue-blocking glasses and other products designed to prevent circadian disruption and promote health. He joins the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to discuss the importance of minimizing blue light exposure, especially at night.

Even those who prioritize their health through diet, exercise, and supplementation often overlook light as a crucial factor in health and disease prevention. We might believe we’re functioning optimally, but many of us don’t truly understand what it means to experience restorative sleep.

Andy shares simple changes that can enhance health benefits and offers tips for convincing a hesitant partner or spouse to embrace these changes.

Join today’s discussion to learn about the origins of Bon Charge and Andy’s advice for aspiring entrepreneurs.

Quotes

• “We've created artificial suns in our environment. We’re now living under artificial suns inside during the evening, during the day. The frequencies of light in those artificial suns impacts us hormonally very differently to natural light.” (14:38 | Andy Mant) 
• “You know, you’ve got to sort out that light environment. There’s no quick fix here. There’s no, ‘My husband or my wife, they want to keep the lights on.’ No, you’ve got to take control and educate them that no, this is bad, because otherwise you’re just going to have the negative effects. It’s like dating someone that doesn’t understand nutrition, but they’re cooking for you every night. So, you’re eating hot dogs and burgers and pizza every night going, but you know, that’s all they know. You’ve got to educate them. But during that education process, obviously, it’s not spooking them saying, ‘Right, got to do this, got to do that, or you’re going to die.’ It’s little bits at a time and try to get them into it slowly.” (20:49 | Andy Mant) 
• “Why take the chance with light causing you these issues? Just popping on a pair of glasses for two hours before you go to bed or getting sunlight in your eyes first thing in the morning before you see any other light, installing a few lightbulbs in your house that don’t emit blue light to put on after dark, and not scrolling your phone an hour before bed. What compromise is that? It’s nothing. It’s such a small thing to do to have that piece of mind that you’re then protecting your future self against any kind of potential harmful impact that this artificial light could be having on your circadian biology.” (31:17 | Andy Mant)

“Unresolved emotions are such an overlooked piece. It’s huge,” says Dr. Calvin Ng, a chiropractor specializing in applied kinesiology and “neuro-emotional technique,” about the impact of the nervous system on our health. In modern Western society, we often live in a state of constant sympathetic dominance—fight or flight. This unhealed trauma, stored resentment, anger, and misalignment with our true values and desires lead to cellular chaos, also known as inflammation, the cornerstone of disease.

Our nervous system shapes our cellular beliefs. Childhood trauma causes our nervous system to keep us in a perpetual state of stress for safety. This results in self-protective false narratives and limiting beliefs. However, speaking positively to ourselves can change not just our health but our lives entirely. Dr. Calvin explains how he helps clients uncover the root of their issues, “clear the fog,” and move towards their dreams.

Despite not being “woo-woo,” Dr. Calvin emphasizes the importance of connecting to our subconscious to truly experience positive change at the level of our nervous system. No amount of nutrition or exercise can replace this connection. He shares the story of his parents’ differing attitudes toward their jobs and the resulting health outcomes.

Dr. Calvin also highlights the natural world as an example of circadian harmony, a true sense of belonging, and the time to think and find answers. Join today’s episode of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to hear him discuss the power of hope and why he believes light is the future of medicine.

Quotes

• “We have this pride in this hustle culture. Working hard, working overtime. And so, this stress that we’re under… I think this is really the cause of disease.” (17:53 | Dr. Calvin Ng)
• “The same way we as Americans need to look at other parts of the world to see how they’re living, we need to think of us as human animals and say, ‘What are the other animals doing?...look at what’s happening in nature and not get caught up with society, the modern life that we have created for ourselves.” (44:23 | Dr. Calvin Ng)
• “If you don’t address that emotional component of being truly aligned with getting healthier, helping yourself, starting a new life, going toward a life you truly, truly want, then we are just going to be spinning our wheels… Everything has to be in order, has to be truly aligned.” (1:10:30 | Dr. Calvin Ng) 
• “The reason we feel so peaceful [in nature] is because it’s a belonging. We feel like we actually belong there–not think—we feel we belong there. That’s the difference.” (1:20:26 | Dr. Calvin Ng)

“We’re contributing to epidemics of psychiatric illness and cancer in the name of energy conservation and climate change without realizing the harm being done,” says Dr. Martin Moore-Ede, who returns to the Quantum Biology Collective Podcast just ahead of the release of his book “The Light Doctor.” Host Meredith Oke predicts the book will have the same impact on revealing the devastating effects of poor light on circadian biology as Rachel Carson’s 1962 book Silent Spring had on the now-banned pesticide DDT.

In this episode, Dr. Moore-Ede explains how advancements in light technology—from the brightness of Thomas Edison’s lightbulb to the blue light emitted by LEDs—are linked to physical disorders such as diabetes and various cancers, particularly breast cancer, as well as mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. He also claims there’s no evidence that LED lights save the energy they are supposed to.

With the threat of a full ban on healthy light bulbs looming, we need to act fast. Tune in to learn the most important thing we can do each day to protect ourselves.

Quotes

• “Many, many aspects of sunlight are curative, the infrared and the violet and many many other aspects are green. But in the context of circadian rhythms, it synchronizes robustly with our circadian clock and is associated with longevity and not just living longer but living healthier longer, which is what we all hope for.” (12:46 | Dr. Moore-Ede)
• “Night is a time for not only sleep but for the rest/restorative features of the body. So, melatonin is something that helps trigger restorative actions of the body. Growth hormone coming out in the evening hours, for example, it comes out early in the sleep period. All those systems in the body are now repairing the cells.” (21:27 | Dr. Moore-Ede)
• “We know, for example, women who don’t see electric light rarely get breast cancer. It was very rare to see these before Edison invented the light bulb. We know that women who are in a non-electrified part of the world, and there are quite a few million people in that state, don’t get breast cancer or rarely get it. And we also know that women who are blind from an early age rarely get breast cancer.” (25:55 | Dr. Moore-Ede) 
• “We’re contributing to the epidemics of psychiatric illness and anxiety, depression, PTSD. We’re contributing to the epidemics of cancer… in the name of energy conservation and climate change and being positive in this arena, without realizing the harm done by, really, a false metric.” (44:10 | Dr. Moore-Ede)

“Plants heal themselves; they are their own doctors,” explains Amber Hargroder, a quantum herbalist and listener favorite. She returns to the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to discuss how plants offer the same healing to us by behaving in the body as they do in response to environmental stress.

In our modern world, including contemporary science and medicine, we speak in "logos", or logic and rational proof, whereas herbalists speak in “phasis” (faw-sis), the language of knowledge through experience, nature, metaphor, and dreams. They let nature speak for itself from its experience.

Amber talks to host Meredith Oke about how barriers in language, culture, and socio-economic class have historically prevented people from embracing the healing properties of the natural world. She exposes the flaws in scientific studies that deem plants ineffectual and discusses how advances in technology are pushing us to rediscover our humanity and our relationship with the earth.

Tune in for another engaging conversation with Amber as she explains how lies are embedded in our language and reveals the true, surprising origins of the Santa Claus tale.

Quotes

• “Whatever environment that a plant is growing in, if it’s an environment that has a certain type of stress, the plant creates its own medicine to deal with that stress, and then we use that plant to also heal a similar stress.” (4:28 | Amber Hargroder)
• “When you look at a traditional allopathic doctor today, more and more—there are outliers of course—but more and more you’re looking at patients as being a machine. They’re all widgets; they’re all the same. ‘I will give you this pill because this is the result that we get in the study and it’s uniform,’ whereas an herbalist is healing as an individual with an individual.” (10:49 | Amber Hargroder)
• “Phasis is observation versus an argument. It’s not linear. Nature is not linear. Spirituality is not linear. Healing is not linear.” (15:21 | Amber Hargroder) 
• “I think this is perhaps why people are starting to get more interested in herbalism and healing with sunlight and water and all these things, is because we’re trying to redefine what it means to be human. And a big part of that is phasis— it is the dream world, it is the visionary state, it is your intuition, which a computer doesn’t have.” (25:51 | Amber Hargroder) 
• “We have to get back into the body, and I think plants help you do that. Plants when you sit with them and you’re aware while you’re drinking them they help you, not only understand the plant and the embodiment of the plant, the essence of it, but the essence of yourself.” (1:09:37 | Amber Hargroder)

“Our eyes are hormone-making organs,” says optometrist and integrative health coach Dr. Valerie Giangrande, and for most of us, this is nothing short of a revelation. Starting with the first strains of sunrise, the eyes take in light, send signals to our internal clock to release hormones in their intended order, so that those hormones work toward our ultimate health and healing. On today’s episode of The Quantum Biology Collective, Dr. Valerie talks with host Meredith Oke about this fascinating and complex process and how extensively the eyes influence the rest of the body. 

In turn, the state of the body is often communicated through the eyes. Dry eyes, for example, can be a symptom of hydration deep at the cellular level. Dr. Valerie explains how contrary to popular belief, it is not too much sunlight but often lack thereof that accounts for common degenerative eye issues such as cataracts. 

Unfortunately, so many of us spend all day looking at screens which emit a blue light that signals to the body that it’s perpetually 12:00 pm. When we do go outside, we block light from our eyes by wearing sunglasses and even glasses and contacts. Dr. Valerie reveals what we can do to eliminate daily barriers to sunlight. 

Eyes are the windows to the soul and, as it turns out, to the body. Tune in to this eye-opening conversation to learn how you can optimize your daily light intake. 

Quotes

• “We’re not just meant to see with our eyes, we have a lot of cells in our eyes that are actually waiting for specific signals of light.” (8:53 | Dr. Valerie Giangrande)
• “Just imagine what happens to our bodies when we’re blocking that signal. We’re not making hormones, and it’s controlling the entire body, really. And we can make some of it in our skin but even our skin, most people aren’t exposed to the sun, with our skin, either, but it’s really our eyes that are the connection, it connects our light to our bodies and helps us work. It’s the way we’re designed to be.” (13:37 | Dr. Valerie Giangrande) 
• “What I love about the eyes is that they are a window into the body, in the sense that everything is connected. The eyes are an extension of the skin, they have mucus membranes, there’s nerve tissue, it’s brain tissue, it’s cardiovascular tissue, it’s lymph tissue. It’s everything altogether.” (18:04 | Dr. Valerie Giangrande) 
• “And even if we’re in the shade, we’re still getting the benefit of that sunshine. You don’t need direct—when I say get the sun, I’m not saying stare at the sun…the sun is coming in at an angle and hitting us down here. So staring at it doesn’t work as well as just being outside because it has to hit you on an angle anyway, so that’s how we’re designed, just to be outside.” (38:01 | Dr. Valerie Giangrande)

“Melatonin is the body’s most effective antioxidant,” declares Scott Zimmerman, who published a groundbreaking paper on subcellular melatonin, which has completely altered our understanding of how the hormone is produced in the body. 

As it turns out, melatonin is not solely produced by the pineal gland but in all of our mitochondria. It works to soothe the cortisol that is produced when we engage in nearly any activity, including exercise. 

On today’s episode of The Quantum Biology Collective podcast, Scott dispels common misconceptions including just how deeply different types of light penetrate the body. Our modern indoor environment—from hospitals to homes, windows and screens— prevents us from accessing all of the near-infrared light that we were born to absorb and that is so vital to our health. 

This is most especially important for children, Scott says. Due to body size and hormonal activity, they are most affected by light, and will suffer the most if we don’t change our current lifestyles. 

Join today’s discussion to learn how nature amplifies our absorption of near-infrared light and why not all blue light is bad. 

Quotes

• “So the body seems to have this kind of yin yang thing going on with the different types of hormones. You want to have the stress hormone response of cortisol to deal with, you know, it shuts down your immune system, it localizes, increases energy production, it does all these good things. But if you keep it up there, then you’ve got a problem. So it appears that the melatonin that's being generated in response to the stressor is greater than, equal to, or greater than the cortisol levels, and it tends to suppress the cortisol and get us back down to calm back down.” (14:15 | Scott Zimmerman) 
• “We've underestimated how the interactions between, you'll see a paper on melatonin, you'll see a paper on cortisol, you'll see a paper on other different hormone levels, but the reality is, is they're working in tandem.” (15:02 | Scott Zimmerman)
• “For whatever reason, sunlight is lowest on the list. We will come up with every other reason—the food, the exercise, the whatever—but sunlight… I guess everybody thinks they just have a right to it; they just don’t take advantage of it, is the problem. And it is free, it’s pretty easy to take advantage of.” (40:14 | Scott Zimmerman)

“Melatonin is the most powerful antioxidant that we know of in the human body—the king of antioxidants,” says today’s guest Dr. Roger Seheult, whose Youtube channel MedCram, helps make complicated medical topics easier to understand. On this episode of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast, he breaks down the process by which melatonin mitigates oxidative stress at the mitochondrial level, thus preventing major diseases in the body. 

The best way to get melatonin? From infrared light. But it’s more complex than that. Dr. Seheult explains the two very different functions melatonin takes on during the day versus at night, where the body’s greatest concentration of mitochondria lay, and why Vitamin D is just the beginning of what the sun has to offer our bodies.

This last point was raised throughout the COVID-19 pandemic—as well as the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918—where light therapies were used to treat patients. Dr. Seheult discusses the pioneering work of John Harvey Kellogg, a study performed in Brazil in which COVID patients were treated with an LED jacket, and the impact of light therapy on COVID patients who were on the brink of being intubated for ventilation. 

Dr. Seheult shares his eight pillars of health—which form the acronym NEW START---and how a green environment enhances the absorption of near-infrared light.

Quotes

• “The sun, and sunlight, gives us much more benefit than just Vitamin D.” (10:00 | Dr. Roger Seheult) 
• “The body’s designed to maximize that light’s effect to get to the area where it’s needed the most, which is the mitochondria.” (29:33 | Dr. Roger Seheult)
• “How do you prevent oxidative stress at night? By limiting light exposure to the eyes at night. How do you maximize melatonin-mediated protection of the mitochondria during the day? Through the production of melatonin on site in the mitochondria through the pathway of infrared light exposure.” (45:42 | Dr. Roger Seheult)
