Can light really change how your body produces energy? Join Jeroen Schreel and Roger Seheult, a professor at Loma Linda University and University of California, Riverside, as they discuss the powerful connection between sunlight and human health. They unpack how infrared light affects mitochondrial function, why sunlight goes far beyond vitamin D, and how modern lifestyles may be disrupting ancient biological signals, and what you can do to restore them.

These are some of the papers Roger mentioned:
