I remember when I was first seeking a way for BioLight to somehow become involved in a scientific study and have our products validated by research. It didn't take long for my path to entangle with today's guest, Elias Arjan.  At the time, Elias was overseeing an arm of Biostrap called Biostrap Labs, which he himself developed to help biohacking and wellness brands run their products through a valid research protocol -- utilizing the biometric data from Biostrap wearables -- to provide scientific evidence to support their own products. As you will learn from Elias, the biohacking landscape is tantamount to the wild wild west where there just isn't much regulation. Sound similar to the supplement industry?   On today's episode of  The Red Light Report, Elias talks in depth about his passion for evidence-based biohacking and how that would help combat misinformation and over-hyped marketing, ultimately empowering the consumer. He is also a bonafide expert in all things wearables and biometrics, so he shares his knowledge in these areas as well.   Elias Arjan is is a business professional, health and wellness educator, and biohacker. As a serial entrepreneur, Elias has started his own businesses and worked in and consulted for Fortune 500 companies, startups, and nonprofits.Elias is ​​the CEO of Business Brain, a strategic consulting firm that serves brands in the health, fitness, and biotech industries.

On this week's episode of The Red Light Report, I interview an individual I met in Miami last month at Biohacking Congress. Today's guest, Barton Scott, approached me after my presentation on red light therapy and we immediately hit it off. And not just because we were like-minded individuals attending a biohacking conference. It also helped that we are both passionate about helping others heal and thrive at the foundational level -- treating the root cause versus providing the metaphorical band-aid. Where I love to advocate and utilize light, Barton is an expert in and proponent of optimizing mineral levels. He has an intriguing story of how his health journey led him down a path that eventually led him to founding Upgraded Formulas, one of the most trusted companies for mineral supplementation. As we all know, it's an n = 1 game when it comes to personalized health, but I think Barton says it best: "Test, Don't Guess!" Barton is a biochemist, founder, nutritionist, and a researcher. For the last 6 years, Barton has been the founder and process developer behind Upgraded Formulas. Supplements at Upgraded Formulas are absorbed into the body’s cells quickly due to the particle size and proprietary stability mechanisms; they largely bypass digestion for an enhanced improvement in absorption over regular liquids, pills and powders, which means increased effectiveness for you despite smaller doses.   Barton is passionate about helping people address the stressors of daily life: poor sleep, hormone issues, low energy, the toxicity of the modern world, the extreme lack of nutrients in our food and soil, and the nutrient absorption issues. Barton is one smart cookie and will broaden your knowledge in one of the most foundational pillars as it pertains to health​: minerals. Listen, learn and enjoy! - Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses with Barton about the following: His health background story and how he came to develop Upgraded Formulas Gatorade, Powerade, and real recovery How he helped a triathlete stay in control during his race Potassium and how only 2% of people get enough a day Rebalancing minerals and how it affected him Achieving an optimal existence The hair test and how it’s accurate for detecting deficiencies How to understand the results of hair tests Global trends in terms of mineral deficiencies Iodine and how Japan consumes way more How minerals affect focus and which are needed for sleep What prevents mineral absorption His 11 day fast to heal some injuries Modafonil  Red light therapy and his experience with it Red light therapy and thyroid function  - Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/5t45DEmPAkk - Go to his Website: UpgradedFormulas.com  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/upgradedformulas  Instagram: @askbarton @upgradedformulas 15% discount code for listeners: redlight15 - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Instagram YouTube Facebook

On this week's episode of The Red Light Report, we are keeping with the biohacking theme and staying on "the other side of the pond," with the UK's leading biohacker, Tim Gray.  Tim has a seemingly typical story of someone that was stricken with health issues, turned to traditional medicine to no avail and, thus, sought out alternative, holistic solutions. But he didn't stop there -- not by a long shot. Because the biohacking scene was vitrually non-existent in London, or the UK altogether for that matter, he took it upon himself to introduce it to his country by putting together a biohacking conference. In a short period of time, the Health Optimisation Summit has become one of the most wildly popular biohacking conferences in the world! In this episode, you get to hear how Tim pulled that off along with other topics, such as biological dentistry, affirmations, nootropics, water, red light therapy and much, much more! Tim Gray, "The UK’s leading Biohacker", is the founder of the Health Optimisation Summit. As a psychology specialist, serial entrepreneur, and successful businessman, Tim founded and invested in multiple 7-figure businesses, including several digital marketing agencies and London’s first private Hyperbaric Oxygen Clinic.  After years spent self-healing his body from chronic health conditions through biohacking alone, Tim embarked on a mission to educate and empower the masses. As such, he created The Health Optimisation Summit, Europe’s largest health conference, which aims to provide people with the knowledge, tools, and resources to take their own health and performance to the next level. The summit is a world-first collaboration between the US-based health titans: Bulletproof Biohacking Conference, and PaleoF(x), which showcases the best speakers from the health, biohacking, fitness, longevity, nutrition, and function and preventative medicine spaces. Tim is also the man behind the Biohacker London Meetup group, a growing global community which laid the foundation in the UK for the summit’s success. With his in-depth expertise and knack for curating high-calibre content, Tim successfully draws in the biggest names in the health optimisation arena to speak about the most cutting-edge health-enhancing techniques. Figures such as Dave Asprey, Dr Satchin Panda, Dr Gerald Pollack, Max Lugavere, and Dr. Mercola are just a few of the speakers that Tim continues to work closely with.  Tim is passionate about optimising the brain and body to achieve mental clarity, stamina, and longevity, and lists Sleep, Dental & Oral Health, Gut & Digestion, Hydration & Mineral balancing, Nootropics, and Psychedelics as some of his favourite topics to speak about.  - Dr. Mike Belkowski & Tim Gray discuss the following: His background, journey into health, and how he founded the biohacking summit His health optimization digital course How everything leads back to nature His biohacking daily routine Finding your identity Mercury teeth fillings and its negative health implications Biological dentistry vs traditional Nootropics and psychedelics Microdosing Modafinil Quinton water Deuterium-depleted water and its potential benefits with keeping the mitochondria unclogged Blue light blockers and when/ how to use them Red light therapy panels and how he uses them How red light therapy heals How we can only see 1% of the world around us - Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/fvIavZtiVG0 - Find him on social media: Instagram: @timbiohacker Facebook: @timbiohacker LinkedIn: Tim Gray   Visit his website: Health Optimisation Summit   Check out his course: Health Optimisation Digital - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Instagram YouTube Facebook

Last month in Miami, I had the privilege of speaking to biohacking enthusiasts about red light therapy at Biohacking Congress. It was a fun challenge for me in terms of trying to divulge the red light therapy knowledge I accumulated over the years -- from countless books about light to hundreds of hours of reading the scientific research to attending photobiomodulation courses --  and distill it into a presentation under 40 minutes.Luckily for you, on this week's episode of The Red Light Report, you get to be a fly on the humid, sunny wall of downtown Miami, as I attempt to explain the proverbial nuts and bolts of how and why red light therapy works; and not just that, but how and why it can help with a seemingly endless list of health and wellness conditions. Does it get a little science-y? Yes, a little. But not enough to scare you off to another episode. Yet enough for you to truly grasp what red and near-infrared light does to you at the physiological level, as that is where the rubber meets the road in understanding why red light therapy is becoming wildly popular in the health, wellness, longevity and biohacking worlds.   In the first half of my presentation, I go over keep concepts such as: mitochondria, bioenergetics, mitochondrial dysfunction, sunlight, mal-illumination, cytochrome c oxidase, electron transport chain, mitochondrial theory of aging and redox potential. In the second half of my talk, I go over a variety of photobiomodulation research articles to demonstrate and impress upon people the many ways in which red light therapy can heal and optimize one's health.   My hope is that you come away from this episode with an enhanced understanding and respect for red light therapy and its limitless potential we are just now beginning to tap into. Please enjoy! - At Biohacking Congress in Miami, Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses the following: His background, education, and approach to private practice The potential of red light therapy to heal The mitochondria and its role in energy production and disease How we’ve been focusing on the nuclear genome and not the mitochondrial How aging is just mitochondrial dysfunction Light and sun exposure Malillumination and its negative consequences to lifespan Infrared saunas vs red light therapy The Electron Transport Chain How extra free radicals speeds up aging Redox potential Red light therapy research and benefits for eye, gut, and oral health Red light therapy for pain Red light therapy and exercise pre conditioning Skin health Sleep & circadian rhythm Thyroid health Things you can stack with red light therapy - Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/1iG2RbR7WD8 - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Instagram YouTube Facebook

Sometimes you just need to recalibrate and get back to the basics; work on the fundamentals of health versus looking for the newest, coolest thing out there. There is a time and place for utilizing new adjuvants and pieces of technology to help optimize your well-being, but what is the point of adding more if your foundation isn't solid and resilient to begin with? That is what I admire about today's guest from Finland, Dr. Olli Sovijärvi. As someone who is deeply entrenched in the biohacking and technology world, he still advocates for - and instills in his daily routine - the (free) fundamentals of health, which almost all go back to nature or within one's self. On this week's episode of The Red Light Report, Dr. Sovijärvi discusses how anyone can become mentally and physically resilient, seasonal HRV, why he believes everyone should be implementing red light therapy into their health regimen and much more! Dr. Olli Sovijärvi is one of the pioneers of holistic medicine in Finland. At the beginning of his career, Dr. Sovijärvi worked as a medical duty officer at the Finnish Red Cross Blood Service. In 2006 he graduated from the University of Helsinki with a Licentiate degree in Medicine and became self-employed in 2008. In 2010–2011, Dr. Sovijärvi completed an Integral Theory degree at John F. Kennedy University, focusing on psychology and philosophy. For the first five years of his career as a physician, Dr Sovijärvi was employed by Finland’s first medical recruitment agency. The job description involved scheduled patient care as well as emergency care and being on call. He has worked at nearly 50 different clinics around Finland. His numerous media appearances, social media articles, and Finland’s first health podcast have expanded the general public’s awareness of what healthcare can be. Dr. Sovijärvi has also acted as a consultant to various companies and service providers operating in the fields of wellness and health technology. Between 2013–18, Dr. Sovijärvi practiced medicine at a private clinic that specializes in nutrition and holistic health care. The clinic employs physicians and nurses practicing holistic medicine. The clinic features the only trace-element laboratory in Finland. At present, Dr. Sovijärvi focuses primarily on the production of scientific content for preventive healthcare and wellbeing. He also runs training sessions and presentations on the topics of biohacking, performance optimization, nutritional issues, and maintaining the intestinal balance. In his free time he enjoys athletics, playing with his child, music, and good humor. - Dr. Mike Belkowski & Dr. Olli Sovijärvi discuss the following: His background in health, wellness, and biohacking The shift in people becoming proactive health advocates in their own wellness The book he is currently working on - The Resilient Being: Master the Biology of Resliience, Immunity, and Longevity Resilience and how people should be boosting it for their health and longevity How you can boost your resilience with nature and technology Grounding and its many benefits How he tracks his biometrics How to optimize your heart rate variability  (HRV) and sleep score Seasonal changes in our heart rate variability Breathing techniques to optimize heart rate variability Spiritual resilience and meditation Red light therapy and how he uses it Red light therapy distance, duration, exposure, and frequency Testosterone and red light therapy How he was healed by red light therapy Enamel erosion and how red light therapy could mitigate it Events he is doing and how you can keep up with him Things you can do today to improve your resilience - Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/b5CUIn9Xo9o - Check out Dr. Sovijärvi's books, courses, & products:  Resilient Being Book: https://biohack.to/resilientbeing Shop.biohackercenter.com Biohackersummit.com   Find him on Instagram: @ollisovijarvi & @biohackingbook  - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Instagram YouTube Facebook
