But people like John Ott, Robert Becker, Fritz Albert Popp, these were guys who were originally considered a bit... controversial and yet now we have people like dr martin picard and his partner nushin and i slaughter her last name that are out of columbia who are doing amazing research in this concept here you you know these guys started out the ones that were kind of the controversials they were not they um And you, I should say, you started out and then they helped confirm or guide you.

He's a photobiologist and he learned that the different fluorescent lights, different colors would affect the way the plants grew or germinated or how big the fruit was produced or small just based on if it was a blue fluorescent light or a pink light or a white light.

And we didn't even talk about it, but just really quickly, like Glenn Jeffrey, the researcher, he basically shined a red light on people's shoulders for three minutes and then they ate a meal versus a placebo group that had no red light shining them and they had a 25% lower blood glucose response just by three minutes of red light.

And then on the John Ott experiments, um, he actually does mention that when people blocked UV light with sunglasses or sunscreen, they didn't see the same benefits, and he had an, a case of arthritis, and when he was wearing prescription glasses which also block UV, he would, he still, he would notice the pain, but when he started exposing his eyes to full UV spectrum, his arthritis symptoms- ... practically went away.
Aastha JainHOST
134:39
So I do think there is something to UV, and one of the reasons I ask you- asked you as well was because you mentioned melanin.
