RHP 79 - Best Lighting For Optimal Health & Circadian Rhythms | Andrew LaTour

Indoor environments rich in artificial blue wavelength are the biggest health problem nobody is talking about. We discuss how to choose best lighting for health and circadian rhythms including role of flicker, luminosity, colour temperature, spectral emission and EMF on health. We also discuss the engineering challenges of putting near infrared (NIR) light back into indoor environments, in order to more closely emulate our solar light needs.

Andrew LaTour is the owner and chief engineer of GembaRed, manufacturer of high quality red light therapy devices that aim to adhere most faithfully to the biomedical literature of photobiomodulation.
