Is our lighting in our homes changing our biology?
Should you care?
In this week’s episode, we are talking specifically about blue light wavelength exposure in the evenings can be making changes in your biology. This light has an effect on your hormones, your fascia, neurotransmitters and your nervous system and usually not in a good way if the exposure is after the sun goes down. So what can you do? Well this week we talk about how you can reduce blue light from your mobile screens, block it with blue & green light blocking glasses and use lightbulbs specifically made without those kinds of wavelengths for night time.
Let’s shine a light on it shall we?
