Podcast appearances and mentions of Zaid K Dahhaj

Ep. #108 In this week's episode Lil has the pleasure of speaking with the incredible Zaid K. Dahhaj, who is a podcaster, health coach, and holds incredible knowledge through his own research on circadian biology. Topcs: How Zaid got into health and circadian biology. Why is our light environment more important than exercise and nutrition? We’ve had 50 years to run nutrition experiments, is it as sustainable as people make it out to be? Sunlight and ozempic act on the same system? Artificial light has an impact on our blood glucose levels. Does Zaid believe in calories in calories out? Why do we get told to stay out of the sun, we will get skin cancer and it will give us wrinkles if it's not true? What does his circadian lifestyle look like? Would Zaid recommended getting skin cancer checks? Does the sun cause wrinkles? How to avoid burning? Why you should stop wearing sunglasses? Your pets health is a great indication into what your health might look like in the future as you are in the same environment. Not having a period is not normal. + more!

“You can't be helpless, you can't outsource your thinking to centralized authorities,” says today's guest Zaid K. Dahhaj. Nearly a decade into his work in the health and fitness space, Zaid began a deep-dive into the area of circadian optimization and is now passionate about teaching others about it—or more specifically—-encouraging them to teach themselves. A self-proclaimed autodidact with an inherent distrust of authority, he's deeply skeptical of what he considers to be an incentive-structured healthcare system and of the findings which emerge therefrom. Instead he promotes self-advocacy and taking control of one's own health. This includes becoming circadian optimized, as the lack of which, he says, is the root cause of nearly all chronic disease.   On this episode of The Quantum Biology Collective podcast, Zaid will reveal products such as sunblock and sunglasses—that centralized healthcare has told us were crucial to our well-being are actually artificially manipulating the light cycle. He explains why everything , the best time at which to eat it, and even the best time to get an X-ray according to circadian principles.    Quotes: “I don't think people should start off trusting any so-called government-funded expert. I think they should actually start off as a skeptical human being when it comes to these sorts of discussions.” (9:53 | Zaid K. Dahhaj) “The key is that the education is in your hands. Now, we live in a time where education is more decentralized. You have the opportunity to be able to study this work on your own. You don't have to go to your local doctor or any other so-called authority in the realm, you can just take it into your own hands.”  (12:46 | Zaid K. Dahhaj) “We have to understand that the inputs that light has on the entire body as a system are just as powerful, if not more powerful, than food because food is just an extension of light. And to ignore that fact is really to divorce yourself from nature because you don't see the chain of how things are working. And I think that's a big problem that people in modern society struggle with is just this disconnection from nature in general.” (20:57 | Zaid K. Dahhaj) “It's very important to understand how to use these zeitgebers—again, external circadian cues…That's what I want people to understand—digestive health, mental health, neurotransmitter production, mood regulation, all of it is downstream from the way that those clocks sync up with each other.” (31:00 | Zaid K. Dahhaj) “Always be experimenting. Always have skin in the game and orient yourself around that.” (100:00 | Zaid K. Dahhaj)   Links Connect with Zaid K.
