The Hidden Link Between Light, Cancer, and Weight Gain | Dr. Martin Moore-Ede
2026/10/21
Host Sarah Kleiner interviews Dr. Martin Moore-Ede, a Harvard-trained physician-scientist who helped identify the human circadian clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and showed humans are synchronized by light timing. They discuss how modern indoor living mimics shift work—dim days, blue-rich nights—and its links to disrupted sleep physiology, suppressed melatonin, metabolic effects, and increased risks including cancer and cardiovascular disease, citing a new study associating as little as 3 lux at night with measurable heart damage in 11,000 people. Moore-Ede explains why lux/lumens miss health-relevant wavelengths, the narrow circadian-sensitive blue band (~480 nm), and the importance of full-spectrum daylight (especially before 10 a.m.) and blue-free evenings. He highlights infrared’s emerging roles in mitochondrial metabolism and healing, new measurement tools, and solutions like automated circadian lighting and screens. They also cover benefits in elder care trials and the role of outdoor violet light in preventing childhood myopia, and he announces an updated second edition of his book, The Light Doctor. —  Connect with Dr Martin  https://thelightdoctor.com/ https://thelightdoctor.com/the-light-doctor-second-edition/  _________  Sponsored By: Change → Kēpos | For a limited time, you can get 47% off your first order, PLUS free gifts valued at $62.

If you live anywhere that gets gloomy, cold, or abruptly darker after work, this episode gives you a practical game plan before November 1st hits in the U.S. and the time shift hits Europe even sooner.

AVOIDING WINTER DEPRESSION AND WEIGHT GAIN
2026/10/15
ROADMAP - https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/winter-roadmap Feeling tired, moody, and craving carbs every winter? Your biology is working against you — and willpower alone won't fix it. In this video, I break down the two foundational signals your body needs in winter: LIGHT and FOOD. Get these right and you can avoid seasonal depression, stop the winter weight gain spiral, and actually feel energized all season long. Here's what I cover: → Why most people go into winter already depleted (low vitamin D, low iron, broken sleep) — and why that matters more than you think → Foundation #1 — LIGHT: How to get 10,000 lux of morning light (even on cloudy days), why your indoor light is basically useless, and how UV light drives your serotonin and dopamine → The truth about light boxes: the blue light problem, flicker, and nervous system dysregulation — plus the one I actually recommend → Your evening light protocol: 10 lux or below 2–3 hours before bed, why your bedroom needs to be at zero lux, and how light exposure while sleeping is linked to obesity and insulin resistance → Foundation #2 — FOOD: Why skipping meals and over-fasting wrecks your iron levels (hepcidin explained), why you need protein, fat, and carbs across three meals, and why calorie deficit alone fails when you're depleted → Why willpower always loses to biology — and why the answer isn't restricting harder, but pulling safety signals back in If you've ever felt like a runaway train from Thanksgiving through January, this is your blueprint to break the cycle. ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 — Why You Feel Like Crap Every Winter 1:18 — Are You Depleted Going Into Winter? 2:49 — Foundation #1: Light Signals 6:02 — Getting 10,000 Lux (Even on Cloudy Days) 8:59 — Why Less Light = More Sugar Cravings 9:45 — Light Boxes: Blue Light & Flicker Problems 11:56 — Why Your Appetite Gets Wrecked in Winter 13:02 — Why Calorie Deficit Alone Fails in Winter 14:13 — Morning Light: Non-Negotiables 14:54 — Evening Light Protocol (10 Lux Before Bed) 16:08 — Bedroom Light & Weight Gain Connection 17:08 — Foundation #2: Food Signals 17:54 — Over-Fasting & Iron Depletion (Hepcidin) 18:59 — Your Nervous System Needs Light First 19:43 — Why Willpower Loses to Biology 20:29 — You Can Be Overweight & Undernourished 21:38 — Restricting Harder Isn't the Answer 22:29 — What Actually Works: Pull Safety Signals Back In 22:49 — Breaking the Annual Winter Pattern 23:41 — Wrap Up & Next Steps #WinterDepression #SeasonalAffectiveDisorder #WinterWeightGain #LightTherapy #CircadianRhythm #WinterWellness
The Winter Light Diet: How to Fix Your Rhythms and Thrive in the Cold | Heidi Sime
2026/10/14
Sarah Kleiner welcomes Heidi Sime, CEO of DreamWalkers, to discuss circadian living—especially through fall and winter in northern Wisconsin where extreme cold and short days make light management critical. Heidi shares her health journey, relationships, and how her husband Thaddeus Owen (a circadian rhythm expert who improved insomnia and anxiety with blue light blockers and gave a TEDx talk) introduced her to red evening lighting and consistent post-sunset blue light blocking. They emphasize non-negotiable morning sunlight even in winter, banking summer sun exposure, and consider winter strategies such as travel south, UVB lamps, and carefully chosen tanning/solarium options. Heidi describes seasonal internal practices like three months of morning journaling rituals, and seasonal eating shifts including ketogenic or carnivore phases. The conversation also touches on parenting, reducing screen reliance, avoiding rigid health dogma, and Heidi’s women-focused blue light glasses, Morning Light Club hat, and related products. —  Connect with Heidi  https://dreamwalkerz.ai/discount/SarahK  https://www.instagram.com/heidisime_/?hl=en  _________  Sponsored By: → Kēpos | For a limited time, you can get 47% off your first order, PLUS free gifts valued at $62.

Cancer, Circadian Biology, and the Questions Nobody Asked | Jeffrey Hartford | EWP
2026/10/07
Sarah Kliner welcomes Jeffrey to the Evolving Wellness podcast to discuss his experience navigating a left-kidney tumor diagnosis (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) using circadian and quantum biology principles, deuterium depletion, and lifestyle changes rather than standard-of-care surgery that would have removed his entire kidney. Jeffrey connects his health journey to long-term emotional suppression, alcohol use, and late nights under artificial light, describing the diagnosis as a catalyst to set boundaries, align with authenticity, and trust intuition. He shares practices including consistent sleep aligned to light-dark cycles (using the My Circadian app), cold plunging (Morasko), red light therapy (Soleil Well), sauna, local seasonal whole foods, minerals, and deuterium-depleted water, while reducing supplements and discontinuing an ivermectin/mebendazole protocol. He reports some scans showing shrinkage and aims to empower others to make changes before a diagnosis. —  Connect with Jeffrey.  https://www.jhartfitness.com/  https://www.youtube.com/@jhartfitness/videos  https://www.instagram.com/jhart_fitness  _________  Sponsored By: → VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - Go to https://www.vivarays.com/sarah and use code SARAH at checkout.  → FERRITIN TERRAIN SUMMIT 2026 – Go to sarahkleinerwellness.com/the-ferritin-terrain-summit-2026 and grab your VIP access.

SUPPLEMENTS I TOOK TO TRIPLE MY FERRITIN IN 90 DAYS
2026/10/03
FERRITIN SUMMIT - https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/the-ferritin-terrain-summit-2026' Low ferritin is one of the most overlooked root causes of feeling cold all the time, restlessness, and chronic fatigue - and "just taking iron" isn't the answer. In Episode 1, Sarah Kleiner shares her personal journey with low ferritin, why standard iron advice fails, and what actually moved the needle for her. She breaks down the connection between gut health and ferritin levels, why you can't just supplement iron without addressing absorption, the role of stomach acid (HCL) in iron uptake, how estrogen clearance is tied to iron status, and her 90-day testing protocol for tracking ferritin. If you've been told your ferritin is "normal" but you still feel terrible, this episode is for you.

Why It Takes More Than Hormones to Fix Your Hormones in Perimenopause and Menopause
2026/09/30
Sarah Kleiner welcomes Dr. Anna Cabeca to discuss perimenopause/menopause support for hormone-hesitant listeners, hormone users, and those wanting non-hormonal approaches. Cabeca emphasizes “it takes more than hormones to fix your hormones,” advocating foundations like circadian and lifestyle factors, detoxification pathways, gut and mitochondrial health, and working with individual physiology rather than one-size-fits-all hormone protocols; she frames treatment as hormone “replenishment” and notes benefits of progesterone, pregnenolone, DHEA, and sometimes estrogen/testosterone depending on metabolism and clearance. They discuss increased post-pandemic inflammation and autoimmune issues (Hashimoto’s, dysbiosis), rising MCAS/histamine intolerance linked to estrogen fluctuations or impaired estrogen clearance, and practical supports including food/stress diaries, oxytocin-boosting practices, daily bowel movements, and drainage/lymph strategies. They also cover keto/carnivore drawbacks for some women (uric acid, weight gain), thyroid markers like reverse T3, ferritin optimization, and the importance of individualized, terrain-focused care.

What to ask for if you suspect your thyroid (and your doctor says you're fine | Dr. Amie Hornaman
2026/09/23
Sarah Kleiner welcomes Dr. Amie to discuss why many people with hypothyroid symptoms are dismissed after only TSH (and sometimes T4) testing and placed on T4-only medication without improvement. Dr. Amie shares her own journey through multiple doctors before being diagnosed, learning that T4 must convert to active T3, and ultimately finding functional medicine support with more thorough testing and individualized treatment. They discuss tailoring thyroid hormone replacement, how low ferritin and stress can affect tolerance to T3, and how long-term carnivore/ketosis may lower free T3 for some people. They cover thyroid’s links to metabolism, temperature regulation, mood, and long-term risks, address misconceptions about T4 and cancer via reverse T3, and emphasize getting a full thyroid panel and not accepting dismissal.

How Estrogen Clearance Affects Breast Cancer & Menopause Risk with David & John | Mara Labs
2026/09/16
Sarah introduces an Evolving Wellness episode on estrogen clearance, perimenopause/menopause, and why estrogen therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, then interviews John and David from Mera Labs, whose work on sulforaphane began after both of their wives faced breast cancer. They explain how sulforaphane activates NRF2, supporting phase 2/3 detoxification, antioxidant responses, mitochondrial function, and mitophagy, and discuss circadian oscillations of NRF2. Sarah shares her experience of heavy bleeding, PMS, and low ferritin improving after several cycles on their product, with benefits also noted for her autistic teen. The guests differentiate stabilized sulforaphane from glucoraphanin products, describe synergy from added PEITC, discuss dosing timing, toxins/microplastics and endocrine disruptors, DIM questions, stress and vagal regulation, and note a rare microbiome-driven estrogen recycling condition linked to galactorrhea —  Connect with John and David https://mara-labs.com/  https://www.instagram.com/themaralabs/  For the next week, Evolving Wellness loyal listeners can get an exclusive 25% off all Mara Labs products when you go to www.mara-labs.com/SARAHK and use code SARAHK at checkout.

Reversing Plaque? Why Heart Disease Is Actually Metabolic | Dr Anthony Jay
2026/09/09
On the Evolving Wellness podcast, host Sarah interviews returning guest Dr. Anthony Jay (PhD biochemistry; former Mayo Clinic researcher) about his book Sugar Beat: How Sugar, Not Cholesterol, Destroys Arteries and his broader critique of mainstream cardiology. Jay cites a 28,000-person study where insulin resistance had the highest heart-attack hazard ratio (6.4) versus hypertension (2.2), triglycerides (2.1), and LDL (1.38), arguing doctors overemphasize cholesterol while neglecting insulin and HOMA-IR. He claims statins increase arterial calcification and diabetes risk, criticizes organizations like the American Heart Association, and disputes fears around LDL, ApoB, and Lp(a), describing them as fat-transport/oxidation-related. Jay recommends focusing on metabolic health, diet and fasting to promote fat burning and plaque reversal, cautions about processed foods and mislabeled oils, discusses CAC vs CCTA imaging variability, and notes genetic nuances such as iron-related risk and sitosterolemia. —  Connect with Dr. Anthony Jay website - https://www.ajconsultingcompany.com/ YT - https://www.youtube.com/@dranthonyjay  Books: Sugar Beat - https://amzlink.to/az0hIdy8AMV03 Estrogeneration:  https://amzlink.to/az0U0rLUAUr8f _________ Sponsored By: → Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide. _________ Timestamp: 00:00 Insulin Resistance vs LDL 01:05 Meet Dr Anthony Jay 04:03 Censorship and Free Speech 10:14 Seed Oils and Food Fraud 14:04 Statins and Calcified Plaque 21:53 Sugar Beat Heart Disease Mechanism 30:59 Saturated Fat Genes and Lp a 40:52 Sleep Stress Insulin Link 42:14 Metabolic Flexibility Basics 42:55 Genetic High Cholesterol Cases 43:40 Oreo Study LDL Trap 45:45 Statins Guidelines Corruption 51:02 CAC vs CCTA Scans 57:04 Labs Genes Wrap Up ———  This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional! ________________________________________ Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey! https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resources Check out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

How Light Can Heal Your Brain: Autoimmune, Seizures & Neurology | Dr. Brandon Crawford
2026/09/02
In this podcast episode, Dr. Brandon Crawford, a chiropractor with training in functional neurology, discusses his work combining functional neurology with photomedicine/photobiomodulation, describing an early pediatric case where laser use appeared to spur unexpected brain development. He explains why some lasers may worsen symptoms (e.g., seizures) due to beam “hot spots,” wavelength energy, and dosing factors such as frequency and duty cycle, emphasizing that light is “information” and not always about increasing ATP. The conversation highlights foundational health strategies—sunlight, grounding, deuterium-depleted water, cold exposure, and reducing screens/non-native EMFs—sharing a case where these improved a child’s labs and heavy metal burden. Crawford outlines a developmental functional neurology framework (sensory mapping, primitive reflexes, muscle spindle “conversion,” spinal cord/motor neuron involvement) and discusses PANS/PANDAS as autoimmune encephalitis, focusing on neuroimmune imbalance and individualized treatment that may include targeted activation, nuanced photobiomodulation, and regenerative options like extracellular vesicles, VSEL procedures, and patented Dezawa MUSE cells. He also notes rising neurodegeneration possibly linked to geomagnetic shifts and the South Atlantic Anomaly, and provides ways to contact his clinic and options for telehealth versus intensives. —  Connect with Dr Brandon https://www.drbrandoncrawford.com/ https://www.instagram.com/bcrawforddc/ Neurosolution Center of Austin https://www.neurosolutionatx.com/ https://www.instagram.com/neurosolutionatx/ https://www.facebook.com/neurosolutionatx 528i Laser https://528innovations.com/ https://www.instagram.com/528innovations/ _________ Sponsored By: VIVARAYS  -Go to  https://vivarays.com/sarah and use code SARAH at checkout.

Hormones, Histamine, and Finally Feeling Human Again | Sheila Kenneal
2026/08/26
Host Sarah Kleiner welcomes naturopath and educator Sheila Kennealy, an American living in France who teaches functional blood chemistry and runs The Practitioner Blueprint course. Sheila shares how early health challenges—Roaccutane, rapid weight loss, heavy antibiotic use, liver and biliary issues, mold exposure, and family trauma—shaped her focus on biochemistry, meditation, and the link between psychological and physiological freedom. They discuss environmental contributors to modern illness (non-native EMFs, food, water, air, mold, viral reactivation), the importance of nervous system regulation, and why dogmatic diets and chronic macronutrient restriction can backfire, especially for women. They emphasize pattern recognition in labs over single markers, seasonality in interventions, supplement fatigue, and nuanced approaches to GLP-1s, HRT, and MCAS/POTS, including the viral Pepcid/Allegra PMDD trend. —  Connect with Shelia Website - https://healthymomentumclinic.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/holistichealthbysheila/  Courses - https://thepractitionersblueprint.com/  _________ Sponsored By: VIVARAYS  -Go to  https://vivarays.com/sarah and use code SARAH at checkout.

What Every Sports Parent Should Know About Brain Injury - CTE and Red Light Therapy | Dr. Larry Carr
2026/08/19
On the Evolving Wellness Podcast, host Sarah interviews Larry, a former football player and PhD in exercise physiology, about his worsening anxiety, depression, and cognitive symptoms after years of collision sports and a 2010 diagnosis of significant brain damage. After meeting CTE researcher Ann McKee in Boston and learning of near-infrared light research at the VA, Larry entered a study using a near-infrared headset and reports major improvements in mood, PTSD measures, cognition, and MRI functional connectivity, with symptoms returning when he stopped and improving again on a home device. He describes subsequent research in first responders and a season-long BYU football study comparing sham vs active headsets, reporting broad gains in performance measures and MRI indicators showing inflammation increases in controls but a net loss of inflammation and better axon health in treated players. Larry discusses practical use (20 minutes, typically mornings, three to five days weekly) and argues the approach is disease-modifying and relevant for athletes, veterans, and others. —  BLUEPRINT INFO session - https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/blueprint-live-info-session Blueprint sign up here - (closes August 24) - https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/offers/ExuLzY2G/checkout Vielight - code SARAHK for a discount - http://www.vielight.com/devices _________ Sponsored By: VIVARAYS  -Go to www.vivarays.com/sarah and use code SARAH at checkout.
