The St. John Breber School in Niles, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, was the subject of a study when, in 1963, the Communicable Disease Center of the U. S. Public Health Service in Atlanta reported an unusually high rate of leukemia among the children attending the school—the highest rate of any school in the country, five times the national average. Numerous national cancer agencies, both public and private, investigated this situation, yet no positive explanation for the unusually high leukemia rate was found. Until an explanation is available, every possible clue should be explored, and with this in mind, a visit to the school was conducted to learn interesting details not previously uncovered. From records reviewed, it was learned that the leukemia cluster developed shortly after the teachers in two classrooms were transferred to the school and began to keep the curtains closed at all times because of glare from the large areas of glass used in constructing the building. This practice effectively meant keeping the high-intensity fluorescent lights on continuously. At the time of the high leukemia incidents, the lighting used was the Deluxe Warm White fluorescent tube, described as the pinkest of the standard tubes used for ordinary lighting purposes. Further review of the available records showed that the leukemia cluster emerged in this pattern after the two teachers were assigned to these rooms and began the routine of keeping the curtains closed regardless of weather conditions and leaving the fluorescent lights on all the time. The cluster’s disappearance occurred shortly after these same teachers were transferred to other schools. Coincidentally, during the same period, all of the Deluxe Warm White tubes were old and were replaced with Cool White tubes, which, while not a full-spectrum type of tube, do represent less distortion than the Deluxe Warm White when compared to natural sunlight. These observations suggest a temporal association between the peculiar classroom environment—closed curtains reducing exposure to outdoor light, combined with continuous use of a particular type of fluorescent lighting—and the occurrence of leukemia in this school cohort, with a noted reversal following the shift to different classrooms, staff, and newer lighting.

The video argues that removing LED bulbs from homes is important because LEDs contribute to health issues on a daily basis. It contrasts LEDs with traditional light sources, stating that the sun, fire, and incandescent bulbs emit infrared light, which “actually boost cellular energy and repair.” In contrast, LEDs are described as exposing people “only to blue light.” The speaker cites studies claiming that prolonged exposure to this blue light accelerates aging, disrupts neurotransmitters in the brain, and impairs mitochondria. These effects are presented as reasons why many people feel constantly tired and drained when indoors. Another point made is that LED bulbs flicker at high speeds that are “too fast for your eyes to notice, but enough to stress your brain and your nervous system.” This flicker is presented as an additional risk associated with LED lighting. To mitigate these issues, the speaker shares a personal precaution: wearing blue light blocking glasses “anytime I can’t control my environment and the lighting.” The overall message emphasizes a link between LED lighting and adverse health effects, drawing a contrast with traditional light sources and recommending the use of protective eyewear in situations where lighting cannot be controlled.

Speaker 0 discusses Dr. Jack Cruz and claims about blue light from screens. They say the impact grew out of CIA and FBI experimentation that began with mind control and electrodes on monkeys' brains, and that they realized they could create the same impact with blue light. They claim that when choosing screen colors, blue was chosen over red because it makes you more lethargic, apathetic, and easier to control. They also mention that red light saunas would have the additional benefit of exposure to red light on the opposite side of the spectrum.

Speaker 0: What results kind are you seeing with this study, with the fecal transplants in autistic children? We published that case supervised by the FDA: it was giving one sibling to another and the kid started verbalizing and he's not aggressive. He came to my office banging his head, breaking his teeth, and now he's responding and he's responding to treatment. He's communicating better. He's listening. He's doing classes. He's developing. Obviously, this kid was old when we got him, it's much better, we get better results and I think Doctor James Adams will tell you we get better results the younger they are. So that's one kid. We are on to more precise manipulations, kind of, with two twins that we did. We won a research award at the American College of Gastro about two weeks ago. And basically what we showed was two identical twins that had the same exact microbes at baseline. We manipulated the microbiome and then those microbes disappeared. But what we showed, which has been my path and my mission, save the Biff, is those kids, two identical twins, nine months later, their Bifidobacteria increased with whatever we did. And now they're verbalizing, they're fully reading, fully verbal. This is a beginning. The judge that judged my presentation said this is a proof of concept, right? That when you actually attain an engraftment of Bifidobacteria, these kids are improving. This is obviously my hypothesis, has been my hypothesis. To get to that, to do that, unfortunately, we do not have a stool assay right now that is valid, verified and reproducible in the consumer product, right? So this is the problem because parents are going to say, well, I gave my kids these probiotics and my kid's not improving. So what is Doctor Hazen saying? Well, the problem is if you don't see the increase in the bifidobacteria, your kid's not going to improve. And unfortunately, the tests that are out there are not valid, verified, or reproducible or anything that I could say, oh yeah, use this consumer product. We are developing a consumer product in full transparency, but we are far from that because of the fact that there are trillions of microbes in the gut. And as a responsible physician, I feel that I cannot give a report to a patient that says you have eubacteria or you have Alistope sphingoldi, but I have no idea what Alistope Spine Goldie does, if it's a good bug or a bad bug, because here's what's gonna happen. You're gonna get this lab test from me, you're gonna go to like a thousand doctors and they're gonna say, I have no idea what this test means. Which was the problem, by the way, at the beginning when all these tests were starting. Remember, UBiome, the company that sold all these tests? All these patients would get all these testing and then they would go to the GI doctor and the GI doctors would say, what is this? What the hell?

The speaker describes a new device used to measure the spectrum of light, noting that under full sunshine it reveals all seven colors—“just like the rainbow”—and that this natural spectrum is straightforward. When measuring incandescence, the speaker highlights a “beautiful red hue” and claims there is “really none of the other stuff to make you go blind,” implying that incandescent light presents a safe, simple spectrum in comparison to other sources. The speaker then discusses LEDs, stating that they are “super weird to have LEDs” because they “cause blindness, cataracts, dizziness, headaches, fatigue,” and references “that color spectrum” as part of the issue. Fluorescence is described as being almost identical to LEDs in this respect. The speaker also mentions “full moonlight” in this context, implying a comparison between the spectral qualities of LEDs/fluorescent light and moonlight. A key point emphasized is that LEDs and fluorescent bulbs seem to mimic moonlight, which the speaker notes as a source of behavioral or perceptual effects, claiming that this similarity to moonlight is what contributes to people going nuts. The overall message centers on a contrast between the spectra of different light sources—sunlight with its full seven-color spectrum, incandescence with a prominent red hue and fewer problematic elements, and LEDs/fluorescent lighting with problematic health and perceptual effects and a moonlight-like quality.

The speaker describes observing moonlight and notes that the color spectrums appeared as lines, with certain colors missing, and that the moonlight is constantly changing. They claim this is why people go nuts during the full moon. They assert that the Epstein files were dropped two days before the full moon because “everybody goes nuts when they find out that the government's a bunch of pedophiles … and they need to be hung.” They argue that LEDs and fluorescence are very similar to moonlight, producing the same color spectrum, which is why LEDs and fluorescence are used in homes—to give people the same moonlight spectrum. The speaker claims that people walk around with pulsating and flickering light, “going completely crazy,” because the color spectrum from the moon flickers like an LED or fluorescent bulb during the full moon. They say they bought a device to see what the color spectrum is of what is coming off the moon. The speaker contends this is also why incandescent bulbs should be banned, arguing that incandescent bulbs are being removed for a reason: “number one, they're healing on the eyes,” and that there’s a red spectrum which is “actually very beneficial.”

Speaker 0: Wanna do a little video showing the difference between an incandescent bulb and an LED bulb so you guys can see the difference. Incandescent is very natural, very healing, great for reading. These are like putting an LED streetlight in your home. That is a light emitting diode. It's creating the light color, and it's very, very high in radio frequencies and messes with the mind because of the flicker rate. First, these little cute end incandescent bulbs, none of that. Very simple, very safe. If you don't have access to these bulbs, you can also do things with candlelight. You can look into fire light fire meditations. But LEDs, I would say not putting any of this stuff in your house because it messes with the mind, with the melatonin levels, and doesn't allow you to sleep. This is why people are suffering from so many sleeping issues is because these bulbs.

Researchers recruited 22 individuals and randomized them into two groups: control and experimental. Both groups had a baseline color contrast test, which assesses visual function. Participants worked in a building with abundant artificially lit LEDs and fluorescent lighting, a spectrum with a big spike in blue light and very low red light and zero infrared light. After two weeks of working under these conditions—described as conditions the participants had experienced for the last two years—there were zero improvements in color contrast in the control group. In the experimental group, researchers added two desk lamps, each equipped with a 60-watt incandescent bulb. The incandescent bulbs provided a spectrum that added abundant infrared light, introducing longer wavelengths similar to sunlight. After two weeks of this infrared light supplementation, color contrast tests were retaken. The experimental group showed a 28% improvement in protan thresholds and a 24% improvement in tritan thresholds. After the incandescent lights were removed, improvements persisted four weeks later and six weeks later, with no other changes to the lighting. The mechanism behind these results centers on retinal energy metabolism. The retina is rich in mitochondria, requiring substantial energy. The electron transport chain in mitochondria handles energy transformation. Two scenarios are described: shining red and infrared light on mitochondria versus blue light. - Blue light: Absorbed by porphyrins in the mitochondria, leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Excess ROS reduce ATP production, diminishing energy available to retinal cells and impairing function. - Red and infrared light: Absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase and by nano water around ATP synthase. Absorption releases nitric oxide, allowing oxygen to enter and form water. The longer wavelengths are also absorbed by nano water around ATP synthase, reducing viscosity and enabling the rotor to run faster, generating more ATP and providing more energy for retinal cells to function properly. The speaker attributes the observed improvements to these mitochondrial light–energy interactions, particularly the enhanced ATP production from red and infrared light. A practical takeaway is proposed: add incandescent lighting to the environment.

German doctor Alexander Wunsch, a photobiology expert, explains the hidden dangers of modern lighting. With the shift to energy efficient LEDs, we’ve lost out on the health benefits that infrared radiation in traditional incandescent bulbs and candlelight used to provide. Infrared and near infrared light can penetrate as much as an inch into tissue, even through clothing. Unlike natural sunlight, LEDs lack the near infrared light that’s essential for cellular repair, especially in the eyes and mitochondria where energy is produced. Infrared light can actually produce energy in your cells. Overexposure to the blue wavelength of light emitted by LEDs can lead to serious health issues like macular degeneration, which is the number one cause of blindness as we age. It also blocks melatonin release. In addition, these LEDs flicker rapidly, which isn’t visible to us, but it can disrupt cellular function and impact our mental and hormone health. So Wunsch suggests sticking with warm, clear incandescent bulbs, the old fashioned kind, if possible, especially in the evening, and getting natural sunlight exposure during the day. Now it’s not practical to avoid LEDs altogether. He acknowledges that reality. But when you need LED lighting, don’t just buy the cheapest ones. Buy bulbs with a low flicker rate, a high CRI, and R9 values above 90 if you can, because those are closest to natural light. The Centric series by Waveform Lighting and the Sora Vivid a 19 at polarray.com are good choices.

This is what exercise does to your brain. The bottom image is the scan of the brain of the person that was walking for twenty minutes; there’s a significantly higher amount of brain activity. In 02/2009, Chuck Hillman from the University of Illinois decided to run a test to see if this meant exercise could make somebody smarter. 20 test subjects were evaluated on three areas. What they found was that the individuals that walked for twenty minutes had a significantly increased level of performance in reading comprehension. The results also indicated an improvement in response accuracy in addition to better performance in academic achievement tests, all of which was seen after twenty minutes of aerobic exercise. And so the authors concluded that this could potentially improve the cognitive control of attention within preadolescence.

A doctor stated that many children on behavioral medications may only be reacting to artificial food dyes, which are ironically present in many of those medications. A two-week dye-free period can reveal a food dye intolerance in emotionally disrupted children. Food dyes are found in obvious and hidden processed foods, restaurant food, theater popcorn, prescription and over-the-counter medications, mouthwash, toothpaste, fluoride treatments, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. Identifying them requires reading the ingredients list. Any child with emotional disruption should be checked for an artificial food dye intolerance.

John Ott presents time-lapse photography revealing the impact of light on plant and animal life. He shows a primrose plant dancing to music by synchronizing light, temperature, and moisture. A banana plant produced fruit without pollination, and pumpkins yielded different sex blossoms based on fluorescent light type. Morning glories required red wavelengths filtered out for proper blooming. Tomato plants recovered from a virus under full spectrum sunlight. Chloroplasts streamed normally under full sunlight but clumped under filtered light. Animal studies showed mice developing tail lesions under pink fluorescent light, reversed by natural daylight. Blue plastic improved mink breeding, while pink plastic led to aggression. Blacklight UV improved fish health in aquariums. Rats bred under full spectrum fluorescent lights showed better parental instincts. A school with high leukemia rates had teachers keeping curtains closed and using pink-toned fluorescent lights. C3H mice lifespan was longer under full spectrum light. Experiments showed Mimosa pudica anesthetized by ether and reacting to wavelengths beyond visible light in a coal mine. Bean plants near TVs showed stimulated growth, while rats became aggressive. Hyperactive children improved when TV sets emitting X-rays were removed. Geraniums grew better near the center of full spectrum fluorescent tubes. Time-lapse of slime mold sporulation depended on cool white fluorescent light. Chelated iron improved gardenia growth. Fertilizer did not alter root growth patterns. Temperature affected black spot spores on roses and insect metamorphosis. Cancer cell division occurred after chilling.

In an experiment conducted in a standard first grade classroom, time lapse cameras documented behavior, with several hyperactive children observed, particularly a boy in the immediate foreground. Ninety days after replacing the regular cool white fluorescent tubes with a new type of full spectrum fluorescent tubes equipped with radiation shields, a marked improvement was noted in the classroom dynamics. The extremely hyperactive boy moved voluntarily to the front row, began raising his hand for recognition, and participated at the blackboard during classroom activities. Before the installation of the new lighting, this boy exhibited an extreme learning disability problem. Ninety days following the installation of the full spectrum lighting, he quickly learned to read. This notable change in his reading ability occurred within the same ninety-day period after the lights were introduced. In addition to the improvements observed in this individual student, there was a general average improvement reported in both the behavior and the academic achievement of the entire class. The observations suggest a broad positive impact on classroom performance following the switch to full spectrum fluorescent tubes with radiation shields, as documented by the time lapse footage.

286‒Journal club with Andrew Huberman: light exposure on mental health & an immunotherapy for cancer
Guests: Andrew Huberman
reSee.it Podcast Summary
In this episode of The Drive podcast, Peter Attia and Andrew Huberman discuss a significant study examining the effects of light exposure on mental health, involving over 85,000 participants in the UK. They highlight the established link between light exposure and mental health, noting the correlation between day length and mood, particularly in relation to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Bright light exposure, especially in the morning, is a common treatment for SAD, while the negative impact of nighttime light exposure on mood is less understood. Huberman explains the biological mechanisms behind light exposure, focusing on intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells that respond to different light types and influence the circadian clock. He emphasizes the importance of both daytime light exposure and nighttime dark exposure for mental health, suggesting that individuals should aim for sunlight exposure in the morning and evening while minimizing light exposure at night. The discussion also touches on the evolutionary significance of light exposure, with Huberman explaining how various organisms have developed mechanisms to respond to light for circadian regulation. He advises getting sunlight in the eyes during low solar angle times, such as sunrise and sunset, to help regulate sleep-wake cycles. The conversation shifts to a recent paper published in Nature Mental Health, which asserts that avoiding nighttime light and seeking daylight can improve mental health. The study found that individuals with major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder benefit from increased daytime light exposure and reduced nighttime light exposure. Huberman emphasizes the need for individuals to actively seek light exposure, as many do not naturally receive adequate amounts. Huberman and Attia discuss the methodology of the study, including the use of accelerometers to measure light exposure and activity levels. They analyze the results, noting that increased daytime light exposure correlates with lower psychiatric disorder risk, while higher nighttime light exposure is linked to worse mental health outcomes. They also explore the implications of these findings for treatment strategies, suggesting that light exposure should be considered alongside traditional therapies. The episode concludes with a discussion on the potential for light exposure to serve as a non-pharmacological intervention for mental health, emphasizing the importance of integrating these practices into daily life. Attia and Huberman express their excitement for future discussions and the ongoing exploration of the intersection between light exposure and health.

Using Red Light to Improve Metabolism & the Harmful Effects of LEDs | Dr. Glen Jeffery
Guests: Dr. Glen Jeffery
reSee.it Podcast Summary
In this Huberman Lab episode, Andrew Huberman speaks with Dr. Glen Jeffrey to explore how different wavelengths of light shape cellular energy, metabolism, and longevity, and why indoor lighting—especially modern LEDs—may have profound health implications. The conversation opens with a warning about short-wavelength light, particularly from LEDs, and a rigorous case for viewing lighting as a public health issue. Dr. Jeffrey explains that mitochondria respond to light not in isolation but through their watery, intracellular milieu; long-wavelength light, including red and near-infrared wavelengths, appears to boost mitochondrial function by affecting the viscosity and dynamics of intracellular water, thereby accelerating ATP production and upregulating mitochondrial proteins. This mechanistic frame helps account for observed physiological effects, from improved skin and vision to better blood sugar regulation, and even potential protection against mitochondrial damage from excessive LED exposure. The pair discuss striking demonstrations: red light can lower glucose spikes in a controlled study when applied to a small patch of skin, and bees and retinal cells show immediate metabolic responses to different wavelengths. They emphasize that light delivered to specific tissues can produce systemic effects through intercellular mitochondrial communication, possibly via cytokines and vesicles that travel through the body, suggesting a body-wide network of mitochondrial signaling rather than isolated organ effects. The hosts also cover the depth of light penetration, noting that long-wavelength photons can traverse skin and skull, albeit with variability due to tissue scattering and absorption by water and deoxygenated blood, while short-wavelength blue light tends to drive deleterious changes in mitochondria, weight regulation, and liver stress in animal models. This leads to a broader discussion of how the built environment—architectural lighting, glass insulation, and indoor plants—can influence mitochondrial health, cognitive function, and vision, with implications for schools, offices, and healthcare facilities. They stress the importance of balance across the spectrum, highlighting that sunlight provides a natural, balanced mix of wavelengths, whereas artificial lighting often skews toward blue, demanding strategies such as dimmer incandescent or halogen lighting in the morning and protective measures at night. The episode closes with reflections on early intervention in mitochondrial-related diseases, ongoing clinical trials for retinal and systemic benefits of red light, and the hopeful potential for low-cost, widely accessible lighting adjustments to advance public health, energy efficiency, and quality of life. topics_old_labeling_removed_in_final_script_only The conversation covers red/near-infrared light therapy, mitochondrial function, light absorption by water, sunlight vs LED spectra, circadian timing, retinal aging, and public health lighting strategies.
