Light, Redox & Perimenopause: A Science-Based Approach to Hormones, Weight & Aging

from The Evolving Wellness Podcast with Sarah Kleiner Wellness · host Sarah Kleiner

In part two of a conversation on the Evolving Wellness Podcast, the host and Dr. Sarah Pugh answer audience questions and discuss high-end versus low-cost PEMF beds, why signal quality matters, and concerns about plugging devices into the wall, grounding sheets, and EMF anxiety. They compare far-infrared BioMAT effects on cellular water and exclusion zone water with red light panels, and talk about adapting to EMF exposures during travel, airports, and saunas while using blue blockers and protective clothing. They explore differences in vitamin D and melanin responses at various UVIs, peptides such as melanotan (including dosing and reconstitution risks), and the importance of foundations and testing—especially cortisol curves and metabolic markers—in perimenopause support. The episode also covers cautious use of herbs and supplements, behavior strategies for cravings, cannabis-related hunger, influencer discernment, and a brief discussion of cholesterol as a useful molecule best interpreted in context.— Links Mentioned in the video:Dr. Sara Pugh’s Substack - https://substack.com/@busysuperhuman Sarah Kleiner's Substack - ⁠https://substack.com/@sarahkleinerwellness⁠Free Blueprint info session sign up - ⁠https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/blueprint-live-info-session⁠Blueprint LIVE (Starts first week of MAY) - ⁠https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/offers/83DnpN2o?coupon_code=EARLYMAY⁠Blueprint On Demand - ⁠https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/offers/2oECuhhC/checkout⁠ All Courses & Protocols (Sarah Kleiner) - ⁠https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/store⁠ Sarah Kleiner’s free product guide (all my favorite things) - ⁠https://canva.link/vqycebyg1ulkohf⁠ Dr. Sara’s Retreat Waitlist - https://get.busysuperhuman.com/optin1769620703739 All Courses (Dr. Sara Pugh) - https://busysuperhuman.com/courses-coaching/ _________Sponsored By:→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/→ Troscriptions | For an exclusive offer, go to https://www.troscriptions.com/SARAHK for 10% off your first non subscription order.→ Toups & Co Organics | Ready to give Toups a try?
