## Resource

Most people spend years tracking sleep, supplements, stress, and recovery without ever questioning one of the biggest inputs shaping their energy every single day: light. Live from Biohackers World Los Angeles, podcast host Brooke Gramer sits down with Tom Kerber, CEO and Founder of SunPowerLED, to explore how modern indoor living, artificial lighting, and constant blue light exposure may be affecting inflammation, brain function, recovery, and overall performance more than most people realize. With over 50 years in electronic development and engineering, Tom shares why red and near-infrared light therapy is becoming a serious area of interest for everything from joint pain and concussions to brain fog and mitochondrial health. This conversation brings a different perspective to health optimization and highlights how something as simple as light exposure can influence how we feel, think, recover, and function over time.
