If you aren't happy with your looks, sleep, energy, performance, or overall health, you must make sure you're getting enough light and can use it properly. Light is an essential nutrient, and most of us are deficient in several key frequencies.
Backed by over 200 studies and citations, The Sunlight Cure explains why light deficiency is counter-intuitively causing many of the problems in your life.
Most people don't know that all of biology uses coherent light to control its processes. The quality of these light signals in your body even has a drastic influence on your appearance - improper light signaling changes the shape of your face, quality of your skin, how toned you can get, and how much fat you can lose. It is not just diet and exercise influencing our health, and experts have been in the dark about this truth for decades; light is the reason why diet and exercise affect anything in the first place, and this is why diets and exercise programs don't universally work for everyone.
For the past several thousand years up to today, humans haven't gotten proper light exposure due to a myriad of factors that wild animals don't have to worry about. Unfortunately, us humans are too intelligent for our own good. Many modern influences we have created, like improper diet, clothes, glasses, windows, man-made light, and indoor living contribute to our lack of unfiltered sunlight. They all seem commonplace to us now, but all of these are changes to our environment, and it's our environment that makes us who we are.
Light is one of the most important elements of nature and human biology.
Beyond plants, humans and animals also use sunlight to control most of their biology, and not just for energy. Light is absorbed to give us important information about our environment, it controls the life and death of our cells, and it controls the programs in our cells to decide how we execute our genes.
Although a complex topic, light in human health is explained within The Sunlight Cure in approachable and easy to understand terms. Light belongs to the strongest force in the universe: the electromagnetic force. Charges, both positive and negative, lie at every intersection of how we work - from genetic expression to healing, and even longevity. Light has the ability to interact with these charges through semi-conduction, and this is the key bridge between the light we expose ourselves to and the biological reactions the light controls.
In this book, the author shares his personal experience with both sunlight and man-made light through his own health journey. He explains why sunlight has been falsely villainized, and that we should not be scared of it. Too much sensitivity to sunlight is unnatural, no matter what your skin color is, and modern habits cause this sensitivity.
The more connected to nature you are, the more you will prosper. Consequently, the less connected you are to nature the more you will suffer from mental and physical disease.
With a prior tech background working as both an engineer and programmer in Silicon Valley and Seattle, WA, the author also shares why he has changed his beliefs surrounding technology; he has adopted an apprehensive mindset in regard to adoption of man-made tech and the light it emits. Having owned several electric vehicles, the author also shares the dangers they pose to our lives as their prevalence increases globally.
