People are touting ivermectin for Hantavirus. A drug that requires a supply chain, a seller, a buyer and money. If IVM actually worked, it would immediately be hoarded and not be available. Nevermind that there are no trials showing that it works. On the other hand we have trials that interferon (an endogenous protein in your body) helps fight all sorts of viruses and we have trials that it helps in Hantavirus. We also know cheap ways of elevating our own interferon quite high. So why are some against it? Because you don't need a supply chain, pharmacist, or money to get it. You can't hoard it either.

This collab with Weimar University is the most popular podcast ever on their channel (youtube.com/@WeimarUni). We discuss sunlight and NEWSTART at the actual University that coined the term and has a program called NEWSTART! @WeimarUni youtu.be/AKmz5aC1rm0?si=cguu…

🚨I think there are a lot of healthcare providers/skeptics that are ignorant of where we are right now with respect to sunlight and infrared light in medicine. Here are the statements that I'll make with representative peer-reviewed publications: (feel free to use this a an information packet to send to those that are interested). 1) Sunlight contains infrared light which has been shown to penetrate all throughout and completely through the human body (and clothes) and causes immediate and real physiological changes that are measurable. nature.com/articles/s41598-0… 2) Trees and grass are highly reflective of this type of light: unh.edu/unhtoday/2021/04/see… 3) Makes COVID-19 patients in hospital discharge 30% faster in an RCT: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3649… 4) Makes ICU patients discharge 30% faster and also stronger in an RCT: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3826… 5) Improved glucose control in healthy individuals in a RCT: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3837… 6) Prevented pseudomonas bacteria from producing biofilm - a major problem in fighting bacteria. nature.com/articles/s41467-0… 7) You don't need for it to hit all over your body because the mitochondria talk to each other in ways that we don't fully understand. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/article… 8) Those exposed to this type of light for a lifetime live longer pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2699… and pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3909… 9) The LED lighting environment is unhealthy given that it doesn't have infrared light. Adding infrared light to that environment dramatically improved vision as a measure of broader mitochondrial activity in a study: nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

See you there!

After researching the effects of infrared light on mitochondrial health and understanding that mitochondrial dysfunction is the cornerstone of long covid I started recommending intentional sun exposure to my patients. When I described this some people said that my recommendations were dismissive and that I didn’t truly empathize with long covid sufferers To the contrary:

The is one of the most prestigious scientific journals in the world now acknowledging the benefits of long wavelength light (red or infrared light) therapy and the fact that we are indoors more now than ever before. For those that have had to endure scorn from fellow clinicians when talking about the benefits, this is validation. For those who still think this is woo woo, open a journal and your mind and realize that the world is passing you by. This is now the science!

“A hospital in Barcelona sits right across from the beach. So they started wheeling ICU patients to the shore. Ten minutes of sunlight and waves — and doctors say it changes everything. Hospital del Mar in Barcelona sits directly across from the Mediterranean. For years, staff have been wheeling ICU patients to the beachfront as part of a program to "humanize" intensive care. Doctors say even 10 minutes of sunlight and waves can improve a patient's well-being and recovery. The program gained worldwide attention during COVID-19, when patients who spent weeks sedated on ventilators were taken to the beach. One patient, after 52 days in the ICU, said: "It's one of the best days I remember." Staff monitor vital signs throughout each visit. Dr. Judith Marín said the team had been doing therapeutic outings for two years before the pandemic. The hospital is now studying whether beach visits improve long-term recovery.” facebook.com/100064748104649…
