Seneca, a well-known philosopher, once said… 

“If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.” 

So you have to know what you want before you can take steps to get there. 

Hopefully, you have decided to get and stay healthy. 

If you still need to, you must do that before you will ever get there. 

My mission is to help everyone achieve this goal, especially in the information (rather misinformation) overload era!

Headlines That Matter

The lack of sunlight during the day is worse than electric lighting at night.

What’s Happening?

Chronobiologist and Nobel Laureate in Medicine Michael Rosbash, who won the Nobel prize, has studied the ​molecular clock mechanisms​ of bacteria, plants, and biomedical research’s most famous insect, the fruit fly. 

During a lecture for young researchers, he mentioned that a lack of sunlight during the day is even worse than the presence of light at night.

Why?

We are exposed to too much light at night and need more during the day because indoor electric lighting is far inferior to sunlight.

Memories are consolidated ​during sleep​ , and neuronal morphology is modified during sleep. Sleep is essential for recharging ATP [adenosine triphosphate, a key energy molecule in cells]. Improper light stimulation leads to poor sleep, affecting overall health.

This why I keep stressing about ‘Smart Sun Exposure!’ I have ​proof of my rant!!​

Could the daily swipe of deodorant play a role in vitiligo?

What’s Happening?

There’s a whisper in the medical community about ‘contact vitiligo,’ a consequence of allergic reactions to certain substances in cosmetic products, but not enough ​solid evidence​.

Why?

Deodorants, with their mix of chemicals, can potentially trigger allergic reactions, which could influence or worsen vitiligo.

If you switch to a more natural formulation, be careful since certain ones contain baking soda, which can be equally irritating. I discuss deodorants and ​how to get rid of underarm pigmentation here.​
