It's like they're on a nap.

And there's a transition when you wake up where the mitochondria have to say, oh, you've woken up.

Now I need to wake up and I need to start producing more energy.

And sunlight going into your eyes, being translated into your brain, is the signal that actually tells your brain to organize that.

and so what happens as a result of that is that signaling helps your mitochondria adapt and start producing everything and it actually helps them adjust and if you don't have the morning sunlight you are

you're going to have your mornings full of suboptimal energy metabolism that is initiating that vicious cycle of aging.

That's what I believe.

And then it's also the case that the red and infrared light from the sun is very beneficial to the mitochondria.

The best time to get that would be in the morning.

When you go out in the afternoon, you've got to deal with, like, can I get two hours of this without getting burned?

But if you go out in the morning, you can stay out there for one or two hours, and you can get a lot of red and infrared light without worrying about burning wavelengths.

And then I think the beds and other devices at home are great.

And where you want to start thinking about that is...

I'm getting benefit from red and near infrared light, but I'm getting, I know that I could get more benefit if I got more of it than I'm able to get through sunlight.

So start getting those wavelengths with sunlight as your base,

And then do whatever you want on top of that with whatever seems to be working well for you.

Then nutrition would be number three.

And every nutrient is needed for everything in your body.

But your mitochondria are using all kinds of nutrients.

And there's this idea that floats around in society that...
