Episode #123: Expert Guide to Home and Work Lighting for Optimized Health and Performance

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">My guest this week is Talia Ram, Lighting Expert from Lumiram.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode, Talia and I discuss (healthy) lighting. Choosing proper lighting can be overwhelming, stressful and expensive, for your wallet and health if you don’t get it right!  Talia shares MANY tips for choosing the correct lighting: what kind of light you need, how the spectrum changes throughout the day affecting biology, why photoreceptors on our skin matter and how to mimic natural sunlight indoors, what is full spectrum lighting, watts vs volts, LED vs fluorescent vs incandescent, neodymium (what it is and why it has been deemed the photoshop for real life), and of course, where to start in your home, what kind of light bulbs to use depending on the time of day/activity, reducing eye strain, improving vision acuity, tips for mitigating Seasonal Affective Disorder, and what to look for when shopping for light bulbs.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Learn more at <a href= "https://healthlighting.com/">Lumiram</a>'s website and use <strong>code NAT15</strong> for a discount.</span></p> <p> </p> <p>------</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow Talia Ram:</span></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://lumiram.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://lumiram.com/</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;"> </span></li> <li><a href="https://healthlighting.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://healthlighting.com/</span></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/lumiramelectric/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/Lumiram" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Facebook</a></li> </ul> <p class=""> </p> <p class=""> </p> <p class=""> </p> <p class="">------</p> <p class=""> </p> <p class=""> </p> <p class=""><strong>Episode Sponsors</strong></p> <p class="p1"><a href= "https://oxfordhealthspan.com/products/best-spermidine-supplement" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><s
