In this episode of Circadian Reboot, Pam Killeen interviews Jeff Gibson, who shares his transformative journey into circadian health. After years of living a circadian disrupted life due to excessive screen time and lack of natural light exposure, Jeff discovered the profound impact of circadian biology on his health. He discusses the importance of morning sunlight, blocking blue light at night, and the creation of the Circadian Rhythm Disruption (CRD) Challenge, a community initiative aimed at educating and supporting individuals in adopting healthier light habits. The conversation emphasizes the need for awareness and action to combat the detrimental effects of modern lighting on health and well-being.
