1215. Light Hacking for Better Energy, Sleep, and Longevity w/ Dave Asprey

Author: Heal Squad January 15, 2026 Duration: 54:44
Hey Heal Squad! To continue the theme of longevity, we focused a lot on nutrition and supplements, but what if some of the biggest drains on your energy have nothing to do with food at all? In this throwback conversation, Maria sits down with Dave Asprey to explore how your everyday environment may be quietly working against your health. Dave breaks down why light is more than just something you see, it’s a biological signal your body responds to all day long. From harsh LED lighting and constant screen exposure to EMFs and travel stress, he explains how modern environments can disrupt your circadian rhythm, sleep, mitochondria, and overall energy… even if you’re doing all the right things with diet and exercise. Dave shares simple ways to support your body by working with your environment instead of against it, like managing blue light, improving sleep quality, and making small changes that can have a big impact on how you feel day to day. It’s your reminder that healing doesn’t always require more effort, sometimes it starts with changing what surrounds you.Tune in!!  -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host AUDIBLE:  https://audible.com/healsquad AG1: drinkag1.com/healsquad  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/?hl=en  Website: https://daveasprey.com/  Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com/  Part 2: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/870-heal-your-hormones-w-dave-asprey/id1320060107?i=1000655649245  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
