John TedescoGUEST
If it's air traffic, we want to be able to make sure that, If there's something out there that's in the direction of the radar scan and we're picking something up that we're not, you know, overlooking it, you know, that's something that's very important to us.
Jim QuirkHOST
And right now, this is a FLIR, this video here.
Jim QuirkHOST
Yes, and
John TedescoGUEST
yeah, so you'll see on the right side there, it says FLIR.
John TedescoGUEST
Now, this is a FLIR camera.
John TedescoGUEST
It's called an M364C.
John TedescoGUEST
It's on the roof.
John TedescoGUEST
Of course, there's some fancier systems out there, but this one is a fairly expensive camera system.
Connie ZackGUEST
Infrared is not about temperature at all.
Connie ZackGUEST
It has nothing to do with the temperature.
Connie ZackGUEST
It's about the energy transfer and the dose and the delivery.
Eric BergHOST
Okay.
Eric BergHOST
Infrared light performs one big, deeper process in the body.
Eric BergHOST
What is it? What
SteveHOST
does
Eric BergHOST
the traditional typical yogurts i mean i don't like them so um if you could find something that is from a farm that really cares about it and they're spending the time and they ferment it longer, I think that would be better.
SteveHOST
Wonderful.
SteveHOST
Let's go to quiz question number four, which asks to the audience, infrared light performs one big deeper process in the body.
SteveHOST
Well, what is it? And the audience thinks they know.
Timothy GreenHOST
Could be.
Timothy GreenHOST
So this is Infrared.
Timothy GreenHOST
The bathroom, too, bears its burden on this plaque we placed on the porcelain floor.
Timothy GreenHOST
Be careful not to trip on the textured tile as you stumble through the stations of strict ablution, warily waving the wand of your hand at the series of sensors and all they simulate.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
That's not very practical.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
So you want to be, you know, outside the visible van, and then you get to, basically, infrared frequencies.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
So frequencies here are IR, basically, and it's usually divided into, like, near IR, mid IR, far IR, but most of the frequencies used for LIDARs are near infrared, basically.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
Specifically, there are three frequencies that are commonly used.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
So there's 850 nanometers, or three wavelengths.
40 MINS LATER
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
Both edge emitting and VXLs are used.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
But I think eventually, VXLs are going to dominate the market.
Reza Nasiri MahalatiHOST
And then, specifically, the gain material that is used for these semiconductor laser diodes is indium gallium arsenide phosphate, which is this very specific, you know, mix of four materials that makes a very good gain medium at these IR frequencies or IR wavelengths.
Eric BergHOST
Interesting.
Eric BergHOST
You can also get melatonin from just being out in the sun because when you're out in the sun, over 50% of the rays are infrared.
Eric BergHOST
Infrared triggers melatonin to be made inside your cells.
Eric BergHOST
So that's another thing to help you.
Eric BergHOST
And number seven, if you've tried everything and just nothing's working, you might want to get your testosterone tested by a competent doctor that really knows about doing the testosterone pellets.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
As soon as that light hits any water molecules in our skin, which of course skin is covered in water right here, that far infrared energy is directly converted into heat.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
So the radiant heat of infrared is just directly transmitted into your body rather than a traditional sauna, just really hot air around you pushing in through convection.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
Infrared is just radiant heat transferred into your body by the light converting it to heat when it hits water.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
But same goal, as soon as that heat is generated, moves through your circulatory system, increases core body temp a few degrees, so i've looked at all the literature on traditional saunas infrared saunas the benefits are identical because the same underlying thing is happening in both so they're honestly both good they just have different ways they can be better for people more on convenience really like if you want an outdoor sauna traditional is best indoor sauna infrared's generally best It's kind of just where you want it or how you like to use it.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
If you like it really hot, go traditional.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
If you want it a little less hot, more comfortable, infrared can be better, particularly for the elderly or anybody with a serious health issue.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
Infrared saunas can generally be a little easier to tolerate.
Tristan AndersonGUEST
You generally use an infrared sauna at about 130 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lee LowisGUEST
But the reason you're doing it has not changed at all.
Lee LowisGUEST
Infrared has changed the industry.
Lee LowisGUEST
The introduction of smaller mill machines has changed industry considerably.
Lee LowisGUEST
It used to be that you can only – you would see them on the highways, the freeways.
Dhru PurohitHOST
In this conversation, I'm joined by quadruple board-certified physician, Dr. Roger Schwelt, who breaks down some truly fascinating research on how sunlight may influence our immune system, how our cells produce energy, and potentially even our risk of chronic disease.
Dhru PurohitHOST
And one of the things that really blew my mind in this conversation is that certain wavelengths of sunlight, specifically near-infrared light, can actually pass through our clothing and penetrate deep into our tissues.
Dhru PurohitHOST
Think about that for a second.
Dhru PurohitHOST
You don't even have to be in direct sunlight to potentially experience some of these benefits.
Roger SeheultGUEST
I think we're all stopped there just to sort of make that out there.
Roger SeheultGUEST
Because here's the thing, that false understanding that light is just for the skin and your eyes just got blown out of the water.
Roger SeheultGUEST
infrared light from the sun, again, it's able to penetrate easily through the atmosphere.
Roger SeheultGUEST
If you can see the sun, there's infrared light at all times of the day and at all times of the year.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
And so what got me interested in light was that I was aware of the research on infrared sauna and preventing and helping with heart failure, which they had scared me in the hospital about heart failure because there was damage to the tissue of my heart and they were like, you're going to develop it.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
And so I went and got a sauna.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
And they got me thinking, well, if infrared light is so useful, then what is it? What else is there about light or why is it so useful? So I started going down this rabbit hole about light and realized all these things that I was missing.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
And as far as circadian rhythm and sunlight and grounding and all these things.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
And so my diet stayed the same.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
Yeah, for sure.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
I mean, there's so much to unpack here.
Stephen HusseyGUEST
So as far as what Kristen asked, you know, like as far as like, what can we focus on? Well, the number one thing I coach people in my program is infrared light exposure.
