Have you ever wondered why you struggle to fall asleep after scrolling through your phone or watching TV right before bed? The culprit might be hiding in plain sight—blue light.
In this illuminating conversation with Sam Nana, product expert at Block Blue Light, we dive deep into how artificial light affects your body's natural rhythms and overall health. Sam shares how the company's founder, Daniel Evett, transformed his own battle with chronic insomnia into a mission to create science-based solutions that actually work, unlike the cheap "blue blockers" flooding the market that filter as little as 5-15% of harmful light.
We explore the fascinating science of circadian rhythm—your body's internal clock that regulates sleep, hormone production, and energy levels. You'll discover why not all blue light is bad (you actually need natural blue light during daylight hours) and how different wavelengths affect your body throughout the day. Sam breaks down which specific wavelengths cause the most disruption to melatonin production and how properly designed glasses can target these precise frequencies.
Parents will be particularly interested in our discussion about children's heightened sensitivity to blue light and practical solutions for protecting developing minds. I share my own experience using these glasses with my toddler, who now actually requests them before screen time—with remarkable improvements in her bedtime routine.
Beyond glasses, we discuss whole-home solutions including specialized lighting that can transform your sleep environment without forcing you to abandon technology altogether. The conversation reveals how simple changes to your lighting could potentially address issues like insomnia, headaches, fatigue, and poor focus that many attribute to other causes.
