Because why does this matter so much? Well, the soil itself has a microbiome, much like our microbiome, and this association is creating more disruption in our own microbial activity because we're lacking this intimate association because of what's been done to our soil. Because as you well know, the soil has been degraded so much, specifically here in the United States, it's really become a silent epidemic in looking at what's happening to our soil and getting damaged. Now, one of the things that our special guest and I really connect on is our passion for regenerative farming practices. So really, really excited about this episode. And we're doing this with somebody who, of any person that I know is the most proactive when it comes to experimentation and when it comes to digging in, being forward thinking in the data, and really putting things to the test. So today we're going to talk about some of the most profound data coming out about different types of light exposure and how we can proactively expose ourselves, not just to natural lights, but we can utilize some new innovations with light to create some really profound benefits. So that light exposure is so profoundly important for the management of every process going on within our bodies, every single aspect of our health is deeply influenced by this synchronizing force and that being light. It is entrained to the 24-hour solar day, as mentioned, and the most important time synchronizer reaching the suprachiasmatic nucleus is light from our environment. Now, the Circadian pacemaker itself, what's linking all this stuff up is born out of the suprachiasmatic nucleus or the SCN that's located in our hypothalamus, so located in our brain. We c12an create a 24-hour day if we wanted to, with the inputs of light in our environment, and we can hide out from the natural light from the sun and from the moon, that external light by hiding out indoors. Today, we can essentially hide out from what's happening in nature. Because as we evolved over thousands upon thousands of years, our body clocks were synced up with the natural diurnal and nocturnal patterns of the world around us. Now, why does all of this matter? Well, when our biological clocks can get disturbed or dysfunctional and not syncing up properly by our inputs from our environment can throw off this synchronizing process, specifically the input and influence of light. Now, why does this matter? Well, these biological clocks again are controlling what hormones are getting produced, when they're getting produced, what amounts, what's not happening, other things are getting turned off while other things are getting turned on, all based on what time of day it is. So, these biological clocks aren't just these kind of airy fairy ideas, these are real tangible things. Now, this can sound like a soft science, I know it did for me when I was in my university, but today we know that there is an emerging body of evidence detailing how these biological clocks, which are themselves functional genes and proteins that control the performance of other genes and proteins. These circadian clocks are linked up with the 24-hour solar day, our bodies are literally synced up with the entire universe. What's controlling which hormones are being produced in our bodies? How much are getting produced, what times they're getting produced? This is all governed by our biological clocks that exist within each and every one of the cells in our bodies. This is fitness and nutrition expert, Shawn Stevenson, and I'm so grateful for you tuning in to me today.
