Ep. 12 - The Power of Light For Health w/ Emmanuela Urbani

I interview health and nutrition practitioner Emmanuela Urbani, who specializes in circadian rhythms and quantum biology. Emmanuela shares her personal journey from being a strict vegetarian to discovering the profound impact of traditional nourishment and light exposure on health. She discusses the importance of natural sunlight, the changes she made in her household, and the transformative effects on her clients' health.  The conversation delves into the science behind light sensitivity, the role of dopamine in managing overwhelm, and the differences between traditional and modern nutrition. In this enlightening conversation, Emmanuela and I delve into the complexities of modern nutrition, the role of supplements, and the critical importance of sunlight for overall health. We discuss the misconceptions surrounding dietary habits, the impact of COVID-19 on mental health, and the journey towards embracing a more traditional and self-sufficient lifestyle. Emmanuela shares her personal experiences transitioning from a vegetarian to a more inclusive diet, emphasizing the importance of understanding the body's needs and the influence of environmental factors on health. “I interview people with "misunderstood" lifestyles so we can educate people on the truth.” Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/thehorriblepeoplepod/
