A rule of thumb I like to follow re: vitamin D: when the UV index hits 1 in our area, expose as much skin outside as possible, and vitamin D is synthesized under the presence of UV.
However it's even more important to get out before then, as the infra/red light in our environment primes our skin to be able to absorb that UV later in the day!
Just this morning, I saw the short video on the NEURO GAMMA relative to Parkinson"s in the Vie Light Newsletter. For inquiries, contact Lew Lim at Vie Light.
I am hugely interested in both the red light and electricity, and have bothered the KIND Power Couple with tons of stupid questions. Roman reliably answers!
Plan to listen to the Pollock interview that you references.
A cheap led light with near infrared (invisible) and infrared works great. The "fourth phase" primarily comes from infrared energy, and huberman's morning light not only gives you a lot of infrared but helps you set your circadian rhythm! An infrared led light in the morning works well for my homebody partner. She doesn't like to go out in the cold winter mornings 😂
Grounding is not what it seems. There's no gain or loss of electrons besides the static charge which you can feel from wearing certain clothing and touching metal. The electric explanations that I hear often are pseudoscience. There's no flow unless you are touching something else at a different potential. But grounding does do a lot...
The real benefit of grounding is the physical sensation of being connected to solid ground. You can gain the same benefits by visualizing that you're on earth while laying in your living room or in your bed.
Pollack has quite a different view on flow of charged particles - "likes likes like"... I am awaiting with baited breath his new book "Charged", but a lot of his book is based on his discoveries about this... so I agree standard "electric explanations" are mainly completely wrong.
Great quote: “Challenging convention is not a bed of roses, I assure you. You might think that members of the scientific establishment would warmly embrace fresh approaches that throw new light on old thinking, but mostly they do not. Fresh approaches challenge the most diseases are incurable. All cures, therefore (except those approved by the system) are simply dismissed.
UPDATE: Prof. Pollack has done it again, he has recently published a science journal article “is it oxygen, or electrons, that our respiratory system delivers?”, where he questions whether we really breathe oxygen, or we breath electrons that are delivered along with the oxygen. Once again, he examines the basic assumptions, this time, behind the “standard morel” of breathing, finds them wanting, and comes up with a more robust, simple but predictive hypothesis.

Thanks for the recommendation Gary!
Yes, I have not heard about the priming effect anywhere else - this is a great piece of advice.
Terrific article.

Excellent! “Brevity is the soul of wit” but science needs books....

Brilliant piece, Gary! The over-complexification of science you point to very much reminded me of Steven Young's recent brief article on his Subsy:

Yes, unfortunately your area is a prime of example of what he is talking about :-(

Drat, I forgot a pithy quote:
