Light is the strongest zeitgeber. Thank you for sharing this

[@mead813]

I like how they are talking about light exposure and have the blinds down.

[@kenycharles8600]

Good catch.

The sun where I live currently sets at around 9pm, and rises at about 5.30am..... not all of humanity is designed to live in the tropics... Also this would suggest that anybody living away from the equator should be constantly moving their sleep and wake times throughout the year. I wish the research addressed this.

Dr.Rhonda Patrick, your content on the internet has helped me a lot in my understanding and importance of Micro nutrients. You are doing a great work and continue to change many lives around the world,including mine. Much regards, from India.

Reasoning for living in the tropics. 12 hours of light is very routinely 6 am to 6 pm midnight is midnight and food is more abundant

[@MrLyleThompson]

Biking to work in the morning for the win.

What was the podcast they referenced at about 4:47???

[@Ayan-bp4dq]

So, we aren't supposed to rise right before sun but much earlier? (Referring to midnight or 1am being middle of sleep)

[@commanderpipi1youknowfromp730]

Do the 2 consume caffeine ? And should one ?

Sooo...what about an excessive amount of light from the sun that could cause Skin Cancer?

[@newfangs9236]

You can still use sunscreen, that won't change your circadian rhythm

[@shovelcharge]

What data have you read that leads you to believe that the sunlight causes skin cancer? It doesn’t. Cancer is partially caused by various things like seed oils, lack of vitamin d, lack of exercise. Getting sun in your eyes and getting sun on your skin are different things. You can increase your tolerance for sun on your skin by eating better fats. Bright light in your eyes during the day has no healthy limit.

[@rudeboyjim2684]

Matt Walker says there are chronotypes that define when your circadian rhythm occurs but ALSO says early day sunlight is important? What a glaring contradiction.
