In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Stacy Barczak Baker and dive into the often overlooked connections between hormones, insulin, and environmental factors like lighting and food. We discuss how everyday habits—like staring at screens, exposure to blue and artificial light, even the chemicals we use in our daily routines—and how they are silently contributing to chronic stress and hormone issues. Dr. Stacy shares simple lifestyle changes—such as getting sunlight early in the day, wearing yellow glasses, or using incandescent bulbs—and how these habits can drastically help reset your body's internal clock and support healthy hormone levels. We also discuss the increasing diagnosis of breast cancer and how we can adjust certain lifestyle habits to reduce our risk of certain types of breast cancer.
