How Light Influences Overall Health via the Eye, Pt. 2

In the second part of this three-part series on The Red Light Report, we are going to continue learning from one of the top light pioneers and light researchers of all-time, Fritz Hollwich, via his book The Influence of Ocular Light Perception on Metabolism in Man and in Animal.For a quick review, we covered the following topics in last week's episode: the energetic portion of the optic nerve, light and the pineal gland and light and growth. That information laid the foundation for understanding the true impact that light has on our physiology. Backed by research from the early 1900s no less! This week, we will be learning the following topics: light and body temperature, light and kidney function, light and blood count and light and metabolic functions. We will continue to uncover powerful research demonstrating the impact of light, but now in different areas of our biology.​​This further proves just how profound the light environment you surround yourself on a consistent basis truly is. It doesn't just impact one area of your health and wellness, it virtually impacts ALL facets of health and wellness -- via the energetic pathway of your eye.

As always, buckle up for some learning and enjoy! -

Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses the following:

• Light and body temperature
  • How light affects all aspects of our health
  • Circadian rhythm of body temperature in adults
  • How infants don’t have a circadian rhythm
  • What happens when the circadian rhythm changes and how that disturbs body temperature
  • The impact of light through your eye
• Light and kidney function
  • Light and water balance
  • How blindness leads to more water retention
  • How circadian rhythm is impacted by shifted work schedules
• Light and blood count
  • How blood is so closely involved with the whole organism
  • Light and its effects on the immune system and white blood cells
• Light and metabolic function
  • Lipid metabolism
  • Light and protein metabolism
  • Liver metabolism
  • Light and blood sugar
  • How animals are easier to fatten in dark places than when kept in bright areas
• How our light environment has real consequences
