Cardiologist Warns THIS Common Habit Is the NEW Smoking

About this video

In part of her interview with cardiologist Dr. Michael Twyman, Kane asks for his top daily habits. Twyman names three: seeing sunrise light, keeping darkness after sunset, and grounding outdoors. He argues artificial blue light at the wrong time is, in his words, the new smoking, because light sets the brain’s master clock and, he claims, mistimed light raises cortisol, worsens insulin resistance and fragments sleep. Twyman describes his own routine of waking at 5 a.m., wearing blue blockers before sunrise, eating a protein-heavy breakfast within an hour of sunrise, working in natural light, viewing sunset when possible and being in bed by 9 p.m.

Key takeaways

• Twyman says 15 minutes of morning light is a starting target, with more needed the sicker someone is
• Twyman advises fire, red light or blue blockers after sunset instead of bright screens
• Twyman claims grounding provides free electrons that are highly anti-inflammatory
• Twyman says a vitamin D pill does not replicate sunlight-driven production in skin
• Kane notes she personally flourishes in sun and links the discussion to stress and technology use
