"LED Lights are the largest experiment in human history!"We evolved under sunlight for millions of years. But today, we spend most of our time indoors under artificial LED lights that are nothing like the sun. LEDs are designed for what our eyes can see, not what our biology needs. They lack much of the infrared spectrum found in sunlight. What does this mean for our metabolism, hormones, brain function, and overall health?Scott Zimmerman is an optical engineer with over 35 years of experience and 80+ patents. He's worked with astrophysicist Bob Fosbury, neuroscientist Glen Jeffery, and melatonin researcher Russel Reiter to understand how sunlight and infrared light influence our cellular energy production and health.Episode show notes + bonus practical takeaways: https://www.livelongerworld.com/p/szimmermanHe explains:◼️ Why the real problem with LEDs is not blue light.◼️ How infrared boosts mitochondria, metabolism, and melatonin.◼️ How switching lights changed Scott's cortisol and melatonin within minutes.◼️ Why women, children, and developing fetuses may be more sensitive to LEDs.◼️ Why red light therapy may be harmful!◼️ Practical ways to switch to healthier lighting.TIMESTAMPS:0:00 Are we overlooking sunlight as a major energy source?4:50 What LEDs are missing, and why red light panels aren't the solution6:59 Sunlight extends to 32,000 nm.

What if cancer isn't the enemy? What if tumors are actually the body's defense mechanism against toxins, hoarding harmful substances so they don't spread to vital organs? Almost like the body's garbage collector.But cancer kills so many people. How could it possibly be protective?Dr. Patrick Coles argues that the body has different layers of defense against toxins. First, the liver, kidneys and fat. As toxins accumulate, he believes the body creates skin growths, cysts and nodules, and eventually tumors as the last toxin storage vaults. He calls this Toxin Sequestration Theory.Patrick is a physicist and former Staff Scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory, where he led the near-term quantum computing group. His theory builds on the work of Stephanie Seneff, who's also been on this podcast.Episode show notes + bonus takeaways: https://livelongerworld.com/p/pcolesHe explains:◼️The evidence that cancer cells pull in seed oils, heavy metals and microplastics◼️Why tumors form in certain organs, but almost never in the heart◼️Why brain tumors may protect against Alzheimer's◼️Fat as a toxin store, and the risks he sees in rapid weight loss, GLP-1s and fasting◼️Where he disagrees with Thomas Seyfried: Are cancer cell mitochondria broken or deliberately turned down?◼️His views on chemo, radiation, surgery and immunotherapy, and why he's skeptical of ivermectin and fenbendazoleTHANKS TO OUR SPONSOR: TRACEDHow do you know what toxic metals you're actually exposed to?

Our brains run on infrared light. Mitochondria in the brain absorb red and near-infrared light and use it to boost cognition and energy. And mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and depression.John Mitrofanis has spent 20 years on the question: If infrared light restores the mitochondria, can it save the brain cells that die in Parkinson's?John Mitrofanis is a neuroanatomist and Scientific Director of Fonds Clinatec in Grenoble, France, the research center founded by Alim-Louis Benabid, the father of deep brain stimulation. He is also an honorary Professor at University College London's Institute of Ophthalmology, and was Professor of Anatomy at the University of Sydney for over a decade. He is the author of Run in the Light: Exploring Exercise and Photobiomodulation in Parkinson's Disease.Episode show notes + practical takeaways: https://livelongerworld.com/p/jmitrofanisHe explains:◼️How infrared light and exercise release the same molecules in the brain, and what BDNF does.◼️How red and near-infrared light restores mitochondrial function in cells that are dying◼️How Parkinson’s may begin in the gut◼️Why current Parkinson’s drugs and deep brain stimulation relieve symptoms but don’t stop the cells from dying◼️ Red light and sleep: the glymphatic system, brain fog, and why he uses a helmet every day◼️ Biophotons: the light your cells emit, and why stressed cells and healthy cells emit differentlyTIMESTAMPS:00:00 Cells use light to repair each other01:00 Red light and exercise work on the same mechanism02:50 BDNF: the molecule both exercise and light release06:11 Blue light suppresses melatonin, red light repairs cells09:00 The Nobel Prize won with red light, and the laser that failed to cure cancer14:02 What deep brain stimulation actually does14:54 Why the Parkinson's brain becomes "very, very naughty"16:17 The beauty of deep brain stimulation, and its limit18:40 "You apply red light on it."

Most biology textbooks treat the water in our body as background, a solvent that DNA and proteins float around in. But what if a large portion of the energy in our body is actually coming from the water in our cells? And what if a disturbance to the structure of that water is a hallmark of cancer and other diseases?Dr. Gerald Pollack is a Professor of Bioengineering at the University of Washington and one of the few scientists studying what water is actually doing inside our cells. He says water is not the background, it is doing the work. It is a battery, and it is supplying us energy.Episode show notes + some bonus clips from this episode I only released for premium subscribers, find them: https://livelongerworld.com/p/gpollackHe explains:◼️ How 99% of the molecules in our body are water molecules, and how water is not just a background solvent◼️ How water is a battery and gives us energy◼️ Why every cancer cell is dehydrated with low electrical potential◼️ The role of infrared light and sunlight on water in our cells◼️ What builds EZ water: sun, sauna, red light, grounding, juicing, deuterium depleted water, turmeric, holy basil and ghee◼️ The effect of Hyperbaric oxygen, PEMF and magnets on EZ water◼️ The link between dementia and EZ waterTIMESTAMPS:00:00 Water in our cells is central to every disease00:38 Why almost nobody in biology studies water01:18 99% of your molecules are water.

Oxford physiologist Denis Noble reveals why your genes are not the blueprint for life, why evolution itself works nothing like the selfish gene made us believe, and why the failed promise to cure disease by reading our DNA points to a completely different understanding of health and aging!Denis Noble built the first working mathematical model of the heart in 1960 and is one of the founding figures of systems biology. He is a professor at Oxford with a career spent studying how living systems work, and he now argues that the genome is a database the living cell draws on, not the program running the show.He explains:◼️Why the Human Genome Project never delivered the cures we were promised◼️Why your DNA cannot actually predict most disease◼️The CD analogy: why studying genes tells you nothing about the music of life◼️His long-running clash with Richard Dawkins and the selfish gene◼️Why purpose and intelligence run all the way down, from your immune system to a predator hunting its preyEpisode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/denisnobleTIMESTAMPS:00:00 The Selfish Gene Is Just Not Correct00:21 What Are Functional Networks, Really?02:09 Genes Build the Muscles, But Don't Move Them09:42 Your Genes Are a CD, Not the CD Player12:11 Can Your DNA Predict Your Disease? 14:23 If Not Genes, How Do We Find Cures?18:18 Then Does Gene Therapy Even Work?21:32 Why Scientists Can't Let the Paradigm Go24:08 What Darwin and Lamarck Actually Said31:42 Do Animals Choose?

Circadian scientist Dr. Martin Moore-Ede reveals why the LED bulbs in nearly every home may be driving a rise in breast and prostate cancer, why he calls the light we now live under the tobacco of our time, and why the modern fear of the sun may be shortening our lives instead of protecting them!Dr. Moore-Ede discovered the master circadian clock in the human brain, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and ran a sleep and circadian research lab at Harvard Medical School for two decades. He has spent 50 years studying how light governs human health, and now argues that the shift to blue-rich LED lighting has created an environment our bodies were never built for.He explains:◼️ Why breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer track almost exactly with how much electric light a society uses◼️ Why melatonin is not the sleep hormone you think it is, and what it really does at 2am◼️ How LEDs strip out the red and infrared your mitochondria need for energy◼️ Why the sun exposure data flips skin cancer advice on its head◼️ Why your children are going short-sighted, and the wavelength that prevents it◼️ Why the $200 blue-light glasses most people buy block the wrong blueAASTHA, LIVE LONGER WORLD:Episode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/mmooreedeX: https://x.com/aasthajs Instagram: https://instagram.com/aasthajs My health stack: https://www.healthstacked.com/aasthajsTIMESTAMPS:00:00 LED Light Is the Tobacco of Our Time01:33 The Connection Between Cancer and LED Lighting04:05 Why Hormone-Driven Cancers Are Hit the Hardest07:49 Is There a Link to Glioblastoma?08:14 Why Melatonin Is Not the Sleep Hormone11:40 There Is No Blue Light in Nature After Sunset15:58 We Live in Junk Light, Just Like Junk Food17:21 What Wavelengths Are LEDs Actually Missing?20:44 The Infrared We Lost When We Banned Incandescents22:52 The Two Ways LEDs Are Harming You30:05 Health Stacked30:56 White vs Yellow Light: Why It's the Wrong Question33:59 Lux, Lumens, and a 100-Year-Old Mistake38:27 What LED Light Does to Your Heart and Immune System40:44 Why Regularity Matters as Much as the Light Itself43:07 The Camping Study That Reset Everyone's Body Clock49:56 Sunlight vs Skin Cancer: We Have It Backwards53:03 The 450 vs 480 Spike Almost No One Gets Right59:52 Why Life Evolved to Run on Blue Light01:03:13 Melanopsin: Your Body's Blue Detector01:08:28 Do Melatonin Supplements Actually Do Anything?01:12:19 Why the Wrong Side of a Time Zone Can Kill You01:15:37 Is There Something Special About Dawn?01:17:12 Light and the Early Onset of Puberty01:20:53 The Aggressive Kid Who Changed When the Lights Did01:21:51 Should You Replace Your Windows?01:24:00 Do not wear sunglasses in the morning!01:26:44 What About Daytime Lighting?01:27:41 Do Blue-Light-Blocking Glasses Work at Night?01:31:20 Take Your Lighting Into Your Own HandsPRODUCTS I USE FOR BETTER CIRCADIAN RHYTHM:◼️VivaRays 4 in 1 Blue Blockers: https://vivarays.com/livelongerworld or code LIVELONGERWORLD for 10% off◼️Healthy Home Shop Circadian Bulbs: https://thehealthyhome.shop/livelongerworld for 10% off◼️Daylight Computer No-blue screen: https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/livelongerworld for $25 off◼️Chroma Circadian-Aligned Desk Lamp: https://getchroma.co/photonsfromaastha and code LIVELONGERWORLD for 10% offFull list of health products I use: https://www.healthstacked.com/aasthajsDr. Martin Moore-Ede:Website: https://thelightdoctor.com/Book: THE LIGHT DOCTOR: Using Light to Boost Health, Improve Sleep, and Live Longer: https://amzn.to/4yrwWWuHEALTH STACKED, the trusted longevity marketplace: https://www.healthstacked.com/RELATED POSTS:Avoiding the sun kills more people than skin cancer: https://www.livelongerworld.com/p/sunsmokingYour Lights are Wrecking your Sleep (Here’s What I Use): https://www.livelongerworld.com/p/redlightsYour Screens Are Keeping You Awake: 60 second fix: https://www.livelongerworld.com/p/redphone

97-Year-Old Brain Scientist Professor Michael Crawford reveals why the human brain has been physically shrinking for thousands of years, why he believes it was DHA, an omega-3 fat from the sea, and not your genes, that built human intelligence, and why the official advice to limit fish in pregnancy may be harming an entire generation of babies!Professor Michael Crawford is Director of the Institute of Brain Chemistry and Human Nutrition and a visiting professor at Imperial College London, with more than 300 published papers and the 1972 work that first linked DHA to the evolution of the human brain. At 97, he is still sharp, still publishing, and still arguing that modern nutrition has neglected the one organ that makes us human.He explains:◼️ Why the brain physically cannot work without DHA, full stop◼️ Why it was DHA, not DNA, that shaped the human brain◼️ Why he says the FDA is wrong about limiting fish in pregnancy◼️ How seed oils quietly crowd this fat out of your brain cells◼️ Whether dementia and Alzheimer's actually begin in the womb◼️ Why humans could only have evolved big brains beside the sea◼️ How chicken and eggs lost almost all of their brain fat◼️ Why he believes DHA works like a semiconductor in your neuronsEpisode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/mcrawfordFind me on X: https://x.com/aasthajs Instagram: https://instagram.com/aasthajs My health stack: https://www.healthstacked.com/aasthajsTIMESTAMPS:00:00 The Brain Food We Stopped Eating00:32 "Your Brain Won't Work Without DHA.

Is a hidden molecule in your food and water silently fueling cancer, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's? Could the supplements you trust every day be making it worse?Dr. Stephanie Seneff is a senior research scientist at MIT (published in PNAS, Frontiers, FASEB) with a career studying nutrition, biology, and toxicology. In this conversation, she explains why deuterium — a heavier form of hydrogen — may be the most underrated driver of chronic disease, why cancer might be the body's repair response to deuterium-damaged mitochondria, and why most supplements may backfire.We discuss:◾ Why deuterium may be the most important molecule you've never heard of◾ How glyphosate stops your body from clearing deuterium◾ The two supplements you should stop taking immediately◾ Why she says: "I don't believe in supplements"◾ Why chemo may be working backwards on cancer◾ How to make your gut produce low-deuterium water◾ The folic-acid-in-pregnancy and autism connection◾ Why she drinks deuterium-depleted water every dayThis is Dr. Seneff's second appearance on Live Longer World. Her first episode on glyphosate is linked below.Episode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/sseneff2Find me on X: https://x.com/aasthajs My health stack: https://www.healthstacked.com/aasthajsTIMESTAMPS:0:00 Why deuterium might be the most important molecule you've never heard of5:09 The hidden reason processed food is wrecking your health7:25 How deuterium breaks your mitochondria11:02 Glyphosate stops your body from rationing deuterium (and the osteoporosis link)18:23 Health Stacked19:07 No one is connecting gut health to deuterium, until now22:45 The two nutrients that help your gut clear deuterium25:29 Methylation, melatonin, and protecting your mitochondria33:14 Why melatonin supplements don't actually work34:08 The two supplements you should stop taking immediately38:06 How to make your gut produce low-deuterium water41:12 How glyphosate suppresses your MTHFR gene43:21 Why folate supplementation is a problem45:06 "I don't believe in supplements", Stephanie's case against them46:02 Why she's suspicious of fish oil47:47 The folic-acid-in-pregnancy and autism connection52:37 How glyphosate is quietly causing bone problems56:22 Inflammation is really a deuterium problem1:01:25 Gerald Pollack's EZ water and how your cells expel deuterium1:04:59 Why breast milk is low in deuterium1:09:03 Cancer's real job: repairing your mitochondria (and why chemo may be a mistake)1:23:14 How deuterium-depleted water may help heal cancer1:26:57 Deuterium and Parkinson's: how plaque traps it1:30:37 How to fight Parkinson's1:33:55 Why Stephanie drinks deuterium-depleted water every day1:36:37 What glyphosate does to your sulfation system1:38:38 How grounding reduces deuterium1:39:42 Jack Kruse on glyphosate and melanin1:40:08 Are seed oils high in deuterium? 1:45:05 Does where you live (and sunlight) affect your deuterium?1:47:05 Practical tips to manage your deuterium loadDr. STEPHANIE SENEFF:Website: https://stephanieseneff.net/X: https://x.com/stephanieseneffAASTHA, LIVE LONGER WORLD:Join 2,000+ others for practical health protocols on circadian alignment, light, sleep, & non-toxic living: https://livelongerworld.com/X: https://x.com/aasthajs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aasthajs/My health stack: https://www.healthstacked.com/aasthajsIntroducing HEALTH STACKED: https://www.healthstacked.com/I built the health store I’ve always wanted.

The standard “wear and tear” story of aging may be incomplete. Dr. Peter Lidsky—a virologist and evolutionary biologist argues that aging is programmed. He says aging can be an adaptive strategy for controlling pathogens, a concept he calls the “pathogen control hypothesis.” In this episode, we dig into the evidence behind this idea, the immune system in aging, and what his theory means for longevity interventions.Episode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/plidskyFind me: https://x.com/aasthajs My longevity products: https://www.livelongerworld.com/p/2024TIMESTAMPS:0:00 — Aging ≠ Wear-and-Tear3:44 — The Case for Programmed Aging8:48 — Why Program Aging at All?11:09 — The Pathogen-Control Hypothesis14:26 — Why We Get “Sick Time”24:37 — Rising Lifespans, Explained27:36 — Bowhead Whales’ Longevity Edge31:15 — Why Lone Animals Don’t Live Forever34:00 — Planaria: The “Immortal” Worm35:00 — Do Infections Speed Up Aging?36:46 — When Immunity Starts to Slide38:17 — Why Fertility Has a Deadline42:49 — Extending Life via the Immune System1:00:35 — How Honey Bees Rejuvenate1:10:50 — Can We Tackle Aging?

“We can use the rule of evolution to optimize cancer therapy. The standard practice is that any therapy is given at maximum tolerated dose continuously until progression. It's almost a mantra that they have. Evolutionarily, you could hardly do it worse.” The current treatments on cancer do not account for how evolution works. Dr. Robert Gatenby has been studying evolutionary and game theory dynamics in the progression of cancer. He established the first cancer biology and evolutionary program in the U.S. We can leverage this evolutionary information to provide more effective cancer treatment, which he discusses in this episode. Dr. Michael Levin is my co-host.Episode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/rgatenbyFind me: https://x.com/aasthajs My longevity products: https://www.livelongerworld.com/p/2024TIMESTAMPS:0:00 – Cancer as Tissue Damage, Not Just Mutations8:48 – How Evolution Supercharges Cancer Cell Fitness11:04 – Debunking the “Primitive Cell” Myth12:06 – The Herd Mentality of Cancer Cells14:57 – Why Cancer Dynamics Go Beyond the Genome22:27 – Networks and Information Flow Inside Cells26:56 – Shared Goals: The Secret to Cellular Cooperation29:55 – Genome = Hardware, Information = Software36:26 – Healthy vs. Cancer Cells: Competing Information Systems39:05 – Evolution Turns Harsh After Reproduction41:03 – How Cancer Rewrites Its Own Information Playbook43:07 – Adaptive Therapy: A Patient’s Guide50:45 – The Limits of Adaptive Therapy53:12 – Hunting for Better Cancer Biomarkers55:11 – The Tumor Microenvironment’s Hidden Role59:42 – Why We Must Look Beyond Genetic DataAASTHA, LIVE LONGER WORLD:X: https://x.com/aasthajs Newsletter: https://livelongerworld.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aasthajs/LINKS:Michael Levin: https://x.com/drmichaellevinRobert Gatenby: https://www.moffitt.org/inspiring-stories/dr.-gatenbys-storyEpisode Show Notes: https://livelongerworld.com/p/rgatenbyALSO WATCH:The First Cancer Cell: A Revolution in Early Detection | Michael Levin & Azra Raza: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7yW6ZVVdQkboWpldUZyenD?si=obYEC22NSsSyy7j09JBf7QKeto & Metabolic Therapy for Cancer | Dr. Thomas Seyfried: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7tYdjcJ3G4tqbAx9Z6Bix2?si=Yz9CQ-wNQ3WdcwjKw3lXGwWhy Viruses Could Be the Cause of Chronic Disease | Dr. Paul Ewald: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2OdYInlzTy2zG3Mi6TgADY?si=BtishVk_R-28K2KypODIog
