Episode 7: The Impact of Sunlight, Nature and Environment on Human Health (Pillar 6)

In this episode of the Aware Families Podcast, Brittany and Tom discuss the sixth and final Pillar of Health- Sunlight, Nature and Environment. 

It is becoming evident that our modern lifestyle is out of synch with how we evolved in many ways. Yet another example of this is our drastically reduced level of exposure to sunlight and nature. All the while our exposure to artificial light, toxic chemicals and EMF are skyrocketing. How can we think that this doesn't affect our health? 

How does exposure to sunlight or lack of sunlight impact human health and what can be done in the winter months in places like Montana where sunlight is scarce for 6 months out of the year? 

Does being exposed to and immersed in nature have measurable health benefits for humans? What is the importance of the soil microbiome?

How do the different types of pollution- air, water, electromagnetic and chemical exposures cumulatively degrade our health. 

This episode provides an overview of these topics with the purpose of getting people to think about how their environment is affecting their health.
