Modern Lifestyle Downregulates P53
- Modern lifestyle factors can down-regulate P53, increasing cancer risk.
- Dr. Stephen Cabral frames recent research that identifies specific lifestyle drivers that suppress this tumor-suppressor protein.
Avoid Artificial Light At Night
- Avoid artificial light at night because it keeps cortisol elevated, reduces deep and REM sleep, raises inflammation, and suppresses NK cells and P53.
- Dr. Stephen Cabral links nighttime blue light exposure to disrupted HPA axis and cellular immune suppression.
Use Natural Light To Reset Circadian Rhythm
- Get natural morning blue light and evening red light to entrain cortisol and melatonin rhythms.
- Dr. Stephen Cabral recommends morning sun exposure and watching sunsets to raise daytime cortisol and nightly melatonin appropriately.
