Optimizing Light For Better Health with ...

About this episode

Today on the show I'm joined by light expert Andy Mant who is the CEO of BLUblox, a company specializing in evidence based advanced light filtering eyewear. Andy started BLUblox after becoming dissatisfied with the quality and standards of blue light blocking glasses available and so set about to design lenses that match the evidence is the academic literature. Andy was born in the UK and moved to Australia in 2011 and shortly after moving Andy gained a lot of weight, become chronically fatigued and lacked energy. Traditional dietary approaches only worked to a certain degree and after stumbling across light and health Andy forged a passion and niche understanding of all things light related to health. Today Andy is a leading figure in managing light to improve health and wellbeing.

This fascinating conversation that I got to have with Andy shed so much light on how important it is for us to work WITH nature and it’s cycles; we talked circadian rhythms, EMF’s, blue light, LED lights, how light can affect your hormones, mental health, your weight and overall health, we got into earthing, the dangers of wearing sunglasses and we also go into the science behind red lights at night, which if you follow me on Instagram then you know I have been implementing that for some time now!
