I am always trying to find new natural ways to improve our health, and you can’t get any more natural than light and energy. 

I had the honor and privilege to have sat down with Tom Paladino talking about this not so new, yet not so usual way to better health.

In this episode we talk all about Scalar Light:

• What is it?
• How can it help with living a healthy life?
• Gave an example of how it works by just using a photograph
• Goes into detail on the Natural Foods Program
• What is the future of Scalar light/energy?

Tom's Bio:

Tom Paladino is a researcher and humanitarian seeking to make a difference in the world by providing people with the education and tools to restore optimal health, and by helping enhance their quality of life. Tom began research with Scalar Energy during his undergraduate years after developing a deep admiration for the father of Scalar Energy research or knowledge, Nikola Tesla. He was also able to study the work of a man Hieronymus who continued research on Scalar Energy. Hieronymus’ major contributions included unbinding the RNA/ DNA bonds of microbes plaguing the agricultural industry (rendering them harmless).

The existence of such energy not found within the electromagnetic spectrum, fascinated Tom. Inspired by these findings, he pursued a course of independent study seeking to better understand and subsequently harness Scalar Energy, through the development of an instrument called “Scalar Light”.
