In this illuminating episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May shines a light—literally—on one of the most overlooked foundations of wellness: your circadian rhythm. If you're feeling foggy, wired but tired, moody, or waking up more exhausted than when you went to bed, your body's internal clock may be out of sync. Join Dr. Lara as she introduces The Sunshine Protocol—a soul-supporting, science-backed approach to realign your light biology, restore adrenal resilience, and boost your natural energy and hormonal balance. Drawing from both personal experience as a long-time shift worker and functional medicine expertise, she breaks down how the cycles of the sun impact everything from inflammation and sleep to metabolism and mood. Tune in and learn why syncing with the sun might just be the first—and most powerful—step in your healing journey.

Join Adiel and Dr. Martin Moore-Ede, aka "The Light Doctor," in this incredible conversation about the power of light (including the sun) to heal us. After years of sun demonization, while spending most of our days under artificial blue light spectrums, we are now starting to understand the true relationship between our health and light. Not all light is equal, nor is all light beneficial for us at all times of the day. Learn about the true impact of light on our mitochondria and how having a poor light diet contributes to chronic metabolic disease. For over 40 years, Dr. Moore-Ede has been a leading expert on circadian clocks and the health problems including sleep disorders, fatigue, diabetes and cancer caused by light at night. As a professor at Harvard Medical School (1975 – 1998), he led the team that located the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the biological clock in the human brain that controls the timing of sleep and wake, pioneered research on how the human body can safely adapt to working around the clock, and wrote the best-selling book “The Clocks That Time Us”.  

Send us a textThe genetics of sleep duration and sleep timing.Episode Summary: Dr. Ying-Hui Fu discusses her research on the genetics of sleep, focusing on natural short sleepers who thrive on 4-6 hours of sleep and the heritability of sleep traits like duration and timing. She explores how sleep efficiency, rather than just duration, may explain why some need less sleep without health deficits, and delves into the molecular and circadian mechanisms regulating sleep. About the guest: Ying-Hui Fu, PhD is a neuroscientist and professor at UCSF, where her lab studies the genetics of human sleep behaviors, particularly sleep duration and schedule.Discussion Points:Sleep Traits Are Genetic: Sleep duration (how long you sleep) and sleep schedule (when you sleep) are partially heritable, with most people needing 7-9 hours, while rare natural short sleepers thrive on 4-6 hours.Natural Short Sleepers: These individuals fall asleep quickly, have high sleep efficiency, and live healthy, active lives without deficits, possibly due to faster toxin clearance and repair during sleep.Sleep Efficiency Matters: Short sleepers may complete restorative sleep processes (e.g., clearing toxins, repairing damage) more efficiently, allowing them to need less sleep.Circadian & Entrainment Pathways: Sleep timing is regulated by a molecular clock and environmental cues like light, with mutations in entrainment pathways causing extreme schedules (e.g., early bedtime or night owl tendencies).Modern Lifestyle Harms Sleep: Stimuli like blue light and tense media disrupt sleep patterns, leading to widespread sleep deprivation and health risks.Shift Work Risks: Shift workers face higher risks of diseases like cancer and neurodegeneration due to disrupted sleep cycles, though genetic background influences susceptibility.Finding Your Sleep Rhythm: A two-week vacation without stimulants or artificial light can help determine your natural sleep schedule and duration.Sleep's Health Impact: Poor sleep is a major factor in aging and diseases like Alzheimer's, making it as critical as diet and exercise for health.Related episode:M&M 237: Circadian Biology: Genetics, Behavior, Metabolism, Light, OxygenSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Send us a textHow our biological clocks shape biology from the molecular to behavioral level.Episode Summary: Dr. Joseph Takahashi discusses circadian rhythms, exploring their biological basis, from molecular mechanisms to their impact on metabolism and health; the discovery of circadian clock genes; role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and how light, feeding, and oxygen influence these rhythms. The conversation highlights practical implications, such as the effects of artificial light and meal timing on health, and touches on emerging research linking stronger circadian clocks to longevity.About the guest: Joseph Takahashi, PhD is a renowned neuroscientist at UT Southwestern Medical Center, where he leads research on circadian clock genes.Discussion Points:The suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hypothalamus acts as the brain's central clock, syncing with light via the retina.Key circadian genes like CLOCK and BMAL regulate thousands of genes, especially those involved in metabolism, impacting health outcomes.Internal desynchronization, when brain and organ clocks misalign (e.g., from eating at night), can lead to metabolic issues like pre-diabetes.In mice, eating at the right time (night for nocturnal animals) extends lifespan by up to 35% under caloric restriction, compared to 10% with spread-out feeding.Artificial light, especially blue light at night, disrupts melatonin and circadian rhythms, while natural sunlight supports healthy eye development.Melatonin, a darkness-signaling hormone, is best for resetting rhythms (e.g., jet lag) at low doses, not as a sedative, and U.S. supplements vary widely in quality.Oxygen-sensing proteins interact with circadian clock components, hinting at links between altitude, metabolism, and health.Learning and memory show diurnal variations, with better performance at certain times, influenced by circadian modulation of synaptic activity.A stronger circadian clock, created genetically in mice, led to 16% longer lifespan and resistance to weight gain (unpublished research).Related episode:M&M 202: Why Do Animals Sleep? | Vlad Vyazovskiy*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Sleep issues: Bedtime - topical application on the top of the head, above the ears or back of the head. Waking up at 1am - smelling oils for pancreas, which releases the hormones to pull the blood sugar out of the bloodstream and into the cells. Waking up at 3am - topical application for liver and gallbladder to help sleep through the night. Cravings (sweets and caffeine) Use adrenal or circulation blends to beat afternoon crashes. Inhale or topical application on the lower back to boost alertness. Mobility Fascia health is hormone-responsive and affects posture and motion. Emotional stress can tighten fascia, impacting mobility. Applying on body part allows more range of motion Headache and Migraine Topical application on the temples and lymph node clusters (neck, base of skull, behind the ears and clavicles) to relieve pressure and move fluid. Libido Adrenal blends applied to the lower back help restore energy and hormonal balance. Parasympathetic blends send safety signals to the nervous system, reducing stress and allowing desire to return. Topical application around the belly button or inner thighs to promote circulation and stimulate libido.   Key Takeaways on Essential Oils for Menopause Hormones Oils work quickly due to their ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and influence the nervous system. Topical and aromatic use of essential oils can support hormone health without relying on supplements or medications. Specific oils target specific problems: Adrenals → Energy, stress, blood sugar regulation Circadian → Sleep onset Pancreas → Night waking Liver/Gallbladder → 3 a.m. wakeups Circulation → Boost alertness & focus Hormonal changes affect fascia, posture, mobility, and emotional resilience.

Addressing Fatigue: The Role of Nutrient Deficiencies and Lifestyle Changes. Nutritionist Leyla Muedin details the various causes and potential solutions for fatigue. She highlights how nutrient deficiencies, particularly in vitamins B12, D, and minerals like iron and magnesium, contribute to tiredness. Leyla emphasizes the importance of understanding the root cause of symptoms in integrative and functional medicine. She also touches on lifestyle factors such as stress, sleep patterns, high carbohydrate diets, and alcohol consumption that may exacerbate fatigue. Practical advice on dietary changes and the significance of regular check-ups for vitamin levels is provided, aiming to help listeners address fatigue and improve overall wellness naturally.

What we eat matters—but emerging research suggests that when we eat is just as critical. Timing meals in sync with the body's circadian rhythm may influence metabolism, sleep, and even long-term health outcomes.In the latest episode of the DNS Podcast, we're exploring the intersection of circadian rhythm, chrononutrition, and home nutrition support with leading expert Dr. Hassan S. Dashti—Assistant Professor at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.

Today, Dr. Robert Whitfield speaks with Dr. Inna Lozinskaya, who's a specialist in integrative and functional medicine. They dive into the ways our hormones, chronic inflammation, and sleep are all connected. Dr. Lozinskaya explains how things like stress, gut health issues, and daily habits can throw our hormones and sleep out of balance, which is especially common for women and people with breast implants. Dr. Lozinskaya emphasizes the importance of obtaining the right tests, focusing on nutrition, and making lifestyle adjustments, rather than seeking a quick fix. She also shares some straightforward, practical advice for getting better sleep and feeling your best overall. The big takeaway? There's no one-size-fits-all solution. Taking a holistic, personalized approach is key when it comes to health and optimizing your hormones. Bio: Dr. Inna Lozinskaya Dr. Lozinskaya is a physician, international speaker, and wellness expert who helps patients identify and address the root causes of their symptoms to naturally restore energy, balance hormones, and slow the aging process. After overcoming her own struggles with fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and poor sleep, she transformed her approach to medicine and developed her signature 4-Step CORE Method. Through advanced diagnostics and holistic therapies, Dr. Inna has helped hundreds of patients feel younger, sleep better, and reclaim their vitality. She's been featured on national podcasts and speaks globally on blending traditional and integrative medicine for optimal health. Connect with Dr. Lozinskaya at https://midlifewellnessinstitute.com/.

Amy MacIver is joined by Professor Elizabeth Mayne, a specialist haematologist and immunopathologist at the University of Cape Town, to unpack new research revealing how our immune system is influenced by light. A recent study from the University of Auckland found that neutrophils — the body’s most abundant white blood cells — are more effective at killing bacteria during the day, thanks to an internal, light-sensitive circadian clock. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.

In this episode, Chitra Eder and I explore one of the most powerful yet often overlooked keys to well-being during perimenopause and menopause: the natural daily clock.Both Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine mapped out daily rhythms based on the flow of energy through the body and the world around us. Long before modern science spoke of circadian rhythms, these traditions understood how time, energy, and health are intimately connected.But in today's world, shaped by productivity culture, artificial light, and constant demands, we've lost touch with these natural cycles. The result? Exhaustion, poor sleep, erratic digestion, and emotional overwhelm that so many of us experience in midlife.In this episode, we discuss:* The Ayurvedic and TCM daily clocks what they are, how they differ, and where they beautifully align.* The impact of modern life and patriarchal systems on our natural rhythms.* How menopausal symptoms intensify when we're out of sync with biological time.* Simple, doable steps to reconnect with nature's flow, including meal timing, rest, and honoring your energy.You'll come away with fresh insights and practical tips to help you live more in tune with your body's natural intelligence, even in a fast-paced world. This is about listening, aligning, and gently reclaiming your rhythm.So here's a question we invite you to reflect on as you listen:What do you struggle with most when trying to harmonize your day with your natural daily clock?

We often think of gut health as a matter of diet. What we eat, how we digest, and how we eliminate. But what if your digestive issues, bloating, or IBS symptoms aren't just physical? What if your gut is holding onto unprocessed emotional trauma, stress, and nervous system dysregulation? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by Christy Nault, a root cause health practitioner and founder of Hormone Glow Up and Microflow Healing. Christy sits down with Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful conversation about the connection between trauma and gut health, and how healing begins not with food, but with safety in the nervous system. Together, we explore how chronic stress, childhood trauma, and perfectionism deplete our minerals, disrupt digestion, and throw off our hormones, metabolism, and mental health. Christy shares her own story of living with POTS, IBS, endometriosis, and mass cell activation syndrome, and how her recovery began through parasite cleansing, circadian rhythm regulation, and somatic healing. This episode isn't about a one-size-fits-all gut protocol.

You know your body has a rhythm, but are you actually living in sync with it?In this solo episode, Blaine introduces the 24-hour Qi cycle from Traditional Chinese Medicine, a time-tested system that maps out how your body's energy moves throughout the day. This ancient framework overlaps with what we now understand through circadian biology and may explain a lot about your energy highs, afternoon crashes, and restless nights.Blaine walks through each two-hour window in the cycle, showing how your organs take turns leading the show, and what you can do to support their natural flow. From digestive ease in the early morning to deep repair during the overnight hours, this episode invites you to look at your day in a new light.Whether you're trying to sleep better, improve your focus, or simply feel more at ease in your body, aligning with this daily rhythm can be a powerful place to start.What she covers:The 12-organ meridian cycleEach organ system peaks during a specific two-hour window. Blaine breaks down how energy moves from organ to organ over 24 hours, and why it matters for things like digestion, sleep, and emotional balance.The three-part rhythm of your dayBlaine introduces a way to break up your day and understand how your energy is naturally designed to rise, settle, and restore throughout the day.Why your bedtime has a bigger impact than you thinkLate nights can throw off more than your sleep, they disrupt your body's repair time and may leave you feeling off in ways you haven't connected back to rest.A root-cause view of the bodyTraditional Chinese Medicine reminds us that symptoms don't always point to the source. You'll hear how energetic imbalances in one organ may show up somewhere else entirely.Blaine's message:You don't need to overhaul your schedule—you just need to tune in. When you understand the natural flow of your energy, you stop working against yourself and start feeling more supported by your own body.

I'm going to review the cortisol and exercise connection or confusion… and offer some solutions. Feeling exhausted, frustrated and fat? Got stubborn belly fat you want to lose? You're exercising but tired all the time? Sleep or don't, and you're still never rested?  Sound familiar or been there? This episode is PACKED with solutions on cortisol and exercise in menopause. Don't miss it.   What is Cortisol? Your body's primary stress hormone, but it's also your energy hormone. Regulates metabolism, immune response, and stress. Mental and emotional response to stress. For women in midlife, perimenopause or postmenopause, how cortisol behaves is everything.   Cortisol Follows Your Circadian Rhythm Morning: Cortisol spikes – helps you get up, feel alert, burn fat, and stabilize blood sugar. Evening: Cortisol drops – when melatonin (your sleep hormone) takes over. Disruptions to Circadian Rhythm – chronic stress, fatigue, overexercising, late-night screen time keep cortisol elevated when it should be dropping.   HPA Axis Dysfunction (hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal) Your body's stress thermostat — when it's overworked, it breaks. Constant demand leads to adrenal insufficiency.  HPA Axis dial things down to protect you and that's when you hit a wall: You're tired but wired. You can't sleep or sleep all day. Your blood sugar is out of whack — hello cravings and midsection weight gain. Workouts leave you exhausted instead of energized.   Work Out Doesn't Work Anymore? Cortisol Chaos When your old workouts become stressors instead of solutions. Workouts add fuel to the fire. Solution: Cortisol-Conscious Movement The right exercise, at the right time, for the right reason.   The Cortisol–Thyroid–Adrenal Triangle Cortisol: Regulates blood sugar and inflammation. Thyroid: Controls metabolism — but sensitive to cortisol imbalances. Adrenals: Produces cortisol — but burns out if they're overstimulated. If cortisol stays high, the thyroid slows metabolism. That's when fat loss becomes frustrating, no matter how you eat or train.   The Influence of Cortisol and Exercise in Menopause    Cortisol During Perimenopause and Postmenopause Hormonal Fluctuations Decline in estrogen and progesterone affects cortisol regulation. Increased sensitivity to stress and potential for cortisol imbalance. Symptoms of Elevated Cortisol Weight gain, especially around the abdomen. Sleep disturbances and fatigue. Mood swings and anxiety    Symptoms of Low Cortisol  Fatigue - in spite of rest Low Blood Pressure, weakness   Loss of Appetite    Know When You Are On An Allostatic Load When you reach a tipping point, overloaded by chronic stress. Different kinds of stressors: Emotional Relationship Financial Work Home Hormonal Change Physical (diet & sleep) Exercise   The Good News: Cortisol Isn't Your Enemy Cortisol isn't bad. It's misunderstood. When it works with you, it helps you burn fat, stay focused, and bounce back fast. The key is restoring rhythm — using smart, intentional exercise and lifestyle upgrades that rebalance your body's natural stress-response system.   Exercise and Cortisol Impact of Exercise on Cortisol Levels High-intensity workouts can spike cortisol levels. (it's natural!!)  Chronic overtraining may lead to sustained high cortisol and adrenal fatigue . Timing Matters Morning workouts align with natural cortisol peaks. Evening high-intensity workouts may disrupt sleep and cortisol rhythm .   Managing Cortisol Levels Lifestyle Strategies Prioritize sleep and stress management techniques. Incorporate relaxation practices like yoga and meditation, box breathing. Nutrition Tips Maintain stable blood sugar with balanced meals. Limit caffeine and alcohol intake Avoid strict keto or carnivore and include resistant starches  Exercise Recommendations Focus on low-to-moderate intensity and short duration workouts. Include restorative activities and avoid overtraining. Supplement Recommendations B vitamins and magnesium are depleted by stress.  Maca (Find Femminescense here) is an adaptogen.  Ashwagandha can also be helpful for some.  Cortisol Manager (available online) contains some of the above.   Solutions To Your Questions on Cortisol and Exercise in Menopause   Q: Can I recover from adrenal issues on my own? A: Yes, but only if you actually slow down and stop pushing through it. Most women make the mistake of thinking rest is weakness. It's not. Recovery starts when you listen to your body's signals instead of ignoring them. Dial down high-intensity workouts (for now), focus on sleep, manage blood sugar, and pull in the right kind of movement — walking, yoga, strength training with intention. Identifying how deep your HPA Axis dysfunction goes.  Recovery is possible — but not if you keep acting like nothing's wrong.   Q: How long will it take to recover? A: That depends on how long you've been burned out… and whether you actually change your behavior. Mild adrenal fatigue: 4–6 weeks of rest + smart training + nutrition can turn things around. Moderate dysfunction: 3–6 months to really feel like yourself again. Severe HPA Axis dysfunction or adrenal insufficiency: 6–12 months of consistent changes, possibly with functional support. Reminder: The sooner you start, the faster you bounce back.   Q: Will I lose this weight once I fix my cortisol issues? A: Most likely — yes. If cortisol is the reason for your stubborn midsection fat, fixing it is a prerequisite to fat loss. Cortisol dysregulation = insulin resistance, blood sugar swings, cravings, and metabolism slowdown. When cortisol normalizes, your thyroid, adrenals, and metabolism start cooperating again. But here's the kicker: you can't “outwork” cortisol. You have to work with it.

Neurobiologist Jamie Zeitzer is an expert on sleep – or, more accurately, an expert on why so many can't sleep. He notes that, ironically, it's often anxiety about sleep that prevents good sleep. In short, we lose sleep over lost sleep. Wearables and other tools can help but only to a point, and medications do not induce natural sleep. Instead, he counsels consistent routines, less stimulation at bedtime, and cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce worry about insomnia. Unfortunately, you can't work harder to get better sleep – you have to learn to relax, Zeitzer tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

This episode explores chrono-nutrition, the science of aligning meal timing with your body's natural rhythms (circadian clock). Studies show that eating breakfast is linked to significantly greater weight loss and improved metabolic health compared to eating dinner. The episode emphasizes the importance of understanding your chronotype (Lion, Bear, Wolf, or Dolphin) to optimize meal timing for better energy, digestion, sleep, and overall well-being. Irregular eating patterns disrupt internal clocks, leading to issues like insulin resistance, poor sleep, and weight gain. #weightloss #diet #wellness ==== Thank You To Our Sponsors!

Can "quantum biology" explain why even the healthiest people are still getting sick? In this episode, Dr. Alison Monette reveals why circadian rhythm health is the true foundation of wellness, not diet, exercise, or even supplements. She explains how morning sunlight, light exposure, and your alignment with natural cycles may matter more than anything else you're doing right now.We go deep into how Dr. Monette went from owning a CrossFit gym and practicing functional medicine, to discovering that even those models were still too centralized. Through her personal health journey and treating thousands of patients, she realized that quantum biology and decentralized health are the missing pieces, especially for those who are doing everything “right” and still not getting results.This conversation is for anyone who's burned out on biohacking, confused by contradictory nutrition advice, or who wants a simple, grounded way to build resilient, lifelong health. We unpack why blue light may be silently wrecking your sleep, how to use sunlight to reset your metabolism, and why your mitochondria are the real key to wellness. It's not about optimizing harder, it's about aligning smarter.If you've ever felt like modern life is out of sync with your biology, this episode will hit home. Plus, we explore how this all connects to Bitcoin, self-sovereignty, and why El Salvador might be the perfect place to reclaim your health.Subscribe, leave a comment with your biggest takeaway, and share this with someone who needs to hear it before they buy another supplement or sign up for another fitness challenge.Learn more about Dr. Alison Monettehttps://www.avenamedical.com/https://www.facebook.com/avenamedical/# Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: @BitcoinBeachIG: @bitcoinbeach_svTikTok: @livefrombitcoinbeachWeb: bitcoinbeach.comTimestamps:00:00 What does it mean to decentralize your health?08:00 Why functional medicine may still be too centralized12:45 Are CrossFit and extreme fitness harming your long-term health?19:00 How quantum biology reframed Dr. Monette's entire medical practice26:30 What is the most important lab test for inflammation?35:00 How circadian rhythm controls your metabolism and sleep41:00 Why morning sunlight is the most powerful health intervention48:30 Is intermittent fasting actually making things worse?57:00 What melatonin really does and how to naturally produce it1:10:00 Is sunscreen helping or harming your skin health?1:25:00 The connection between Bitcoin, sovereignty, and health decentralization#circadianrhythm #quantumbiology #biohackinglightLive From Bitcoin Beach

Your brain isn't broken—it's underpowered. Energy crashes, poor sleep, brain fog, and emotional reactivity don't just happen. You're running on low voltage, and your mind pays the price. In this episode, Dave sits down with Dr. Patrick Porter, founder of BrainTap, to reveal how to reprogram your brain using light, sound, and guided visualization—no substances, no side effects, no BS. Dr. Porter breaks down how to activate gamma brainwaves, repair trauma loops, access psychedelic-like states, and boost cognitive performance by 19% in just six weeks. You'll learn why most brains burn out decades too soon—and how to charge yours back up. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How to flood your brain with energy and wake it up • The light and sound protocol that mimics psychedelics—safely • What gamma brainwaves unlock—and how to generate them on demand • Why your default mode network traps you in stress and distraction • The BrainTap protocol that improved cognition by 19% in 6 weeks • A real-life transformation story that rewrote one woman's fate • The link between sleep, trauma, brain states, and performance • How to build a brain that performs like it's decades younger This episode gives you a playbook to reclaim your focus, deepen your rest, and experience the full range of human consciousness—without touching a drug.
