How Sunlight Penetrates the Human Body to Boost Your Vision

from Foodnourish Deep Dives · host Pavlos Giorkas

In today's episode we're diving into new science showing how infrared sunlight passes through your skin and clothing to improve your health.Researchers found that just 15 minutes of light on a person's back can sharpen their vision by up to 16%, even if their eyes are completely covered.This works by boosting mitochondria, the tiny power plants in our cells, to produce more energy.We also look at why modern LED bulbs might be bad for us since they lack these healing infrared wavelengths. It’s time to rethink our relationship with the sun.References:https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-025-09785-3https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/new-study-sunlight-penetrates-theSupport our work.
