In this episode, I’m speaking with one of the global authorities on light therapy, Dr. Praveen Arany. Dr. Arany began researching photobiomodulation (PBM), aka light therapy, 25 years ago, and since then, he has become a world-renowned expert in the field.
We get into the nitty-gritty science of light therapy—we discuss specific biological mechanisms of how photobiomodulation works, his research on light therapy and stem cells, and even misconceptions about light therapy that are important for you to consider if it’s part of your healing arsenal.
A little warning: I want to let you know that this is not a good “beginner’s guide” to this topic. I’d say it’s more for health geeks (like me) who are really into learning the fine details of how light interacts with human biology. This podcast is very detailed and very geeked out, so don’t say I didn’t warn you! :)

In this episode, I’m speaking with Dr. Sam Shay, a recognized clinician who proudly shares his own experience as someone who grew up with undiagnosed Asperger’s syndrome.
Dr. Shay’s mission is to support moms trying to balance raising a “neurodistinct” child with their work, other children, relationships, and staying healthy themselves. He sees these parents as being overlooked and uncared for, and his work is to bring them the tools they need to thrive along with their families.

This podcast was initially released in April 2022
In this podcast, Dr. Hendlin and I discuss:
The critical difference between REAL science vs. industry-funded science
The sad fact that despite countless real-world examples of how corruption and scientific fraud cause massive harm, many people are still unaware of these issues
How big industry buys the science and bribes their way to credibility by compromising the integrity of “independent” 3rd-party institutions
How many industries secretly manipulate government officials to influence their regulatory processes with money, resources, or power
Just how corrupt is science? And how to spot a study that might provide you with disinformation instead of trusted facts
What are industrial epidemics, and how might they negatively affect ALL of us?
Examples of overt corruption from companies like ExxonMobil and Glaxo-Smith-Kline who put pressure on scientists
The terrible danger of hubris in officials who make policies based on industry-funded, fraudulent, and manipulated science
