Ever feel tired even when you sleep enough?
Carrie Bennett explains how quantum biology & circadian rhythms shape your energy, metabolism, and mood & how simple light choices like morning sunlight, infrared bulbs, & reducing blue light bring real BioSynergy.
Meet our guestAs a college athlete, Carrie battled chronic joint pain, insomnia, stomach issues, adrenal fatigue & brain fog despite her background in biology, nutrition & fitness. Everything changed when she discovered quantum biology, finally uncovering the root causes of her health struggles. Now a clinician, online educator & faculty member of the Quantum Biology Collective, she teaches others to heal by optimizing light, water, electrons & mitochondrial support for lasting transformation.
