1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight. From coast to coast Am on iHeartRadio. 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 2: In the nineteen eighties, a storm of illness, chronic fatigue, fibromyelgia, 3 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 2: multiple chemical sensitivities felled Pam Colleen, casting her into a 4 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 2: crucible of suffering. Unbowed, she forged a path to renewal, 5 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:23,600 Speaker 2: immersing herself in nutrition and natural health. Clinicians, though well meaning, 6 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 2: often led her astray, their missteps, sharpening her instinct for 7 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 2: authentic healing. With degrees and languages and education, Pam once 8 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: envisioned teaching tongues, but her body's betrayal redirected her fate. 9 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 2: Rising victorious over her ailments, she found her true north, 10 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: empowering others to conquer sickness. Co author of The Great 11 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 2: Bird flu Hoax with doctor Joseph mccola, and host of 12 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 2: The Circadian Reboot with Pam Colleen, She's a clarion voice 13 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 2: for wellness, not for those content to cradle disease, but 14 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 2: for warriors eager to reclaim life's vas Haunted by some 15 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 2: clients sluggish recoveries, Pam saw deeper truths. Guided by Circadian 16 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: trail blazers like Jack Kruz, she uncovered a primal key. 17 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: Our body's ancient clock drives healing modern chaos. Phrase this 18 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: rhythm stalling vitality. With fierce resolve, she launched the Sleep 19 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 2: Better Form, a haven to realign souls with nature's pulse. 20 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 2: Pam Colleen, Welcome to Coast to Coast, Am, How are you. 21 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 3: I'm great, Thanks, Richard. It's an honor to be here. 22 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 3: I really appreciate your invitation to join you tonight. 23 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 2: What do we mean by circadian rhythm? 24 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 4: Circadian rhythm, Well, it's basically, our body is biological clock, 25 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 4: and we evolved on this circadian rhythm, you know, for 26 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 4: you know, centuries, for thousands of years. 27 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 3: We rely on this clock for so many different purposes 28 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 3: in our body, everything from our sleep to our digestion, 29 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 3: to hormonal health, etc. Etc. And So what's happened is 30 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 3: we've denied our body this natural rhythm that we evolved with. 31 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 3: And it's really due to this fast new world that 32 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 3: we live in. A lot of the choices that we're 33 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: making today are actually undermining this natural circadian rhythm. And 34 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: so what's happening, of course, is you know, I think 35 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 3: a lot of people are blindsided by it. They don't 36 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 3: really know what's happening to them. They're chronically fatigued, they're 37 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 3: not sleeping properly. But unfortunately, I think what's happened is 38 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 3: a lot of people are normalizing their symptoms and think 39 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 3: it's just a part of aging, or it's just because 40 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 3: they're overworking, or they have a lot of stress in 41 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: their lives. But I think it's overall just generally we're 42 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 3: making a lot of bad decisions over the course of 43 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,119 Speaker 3: the day, even though I think we think that they're 44 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 3: healthy decisions because we're potentially so busy, or we don't 45 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 3: have time to prepare our meals properly, or you know, 46 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 3: we're sleeping six hours and we think that's adequate. So 47 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 3: we're making a lot of bad decisions, and it's just, 48 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 3: you know, one bad decision is piling on top of 49 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 3: another bad decision, and our biology is just simply screaming 50 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 3: for attention, and we're just not knowing where to start 51 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 3: because there's just so much chaos out in the world today. 52 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: What does sleep do for the body? How does sleep 53 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 2: help us heal? 54 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: Well? 55 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 3: You know, the sleep science is evolving on a daily basis. 56 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 3: I keep reading new research that's coming up through the woodwork. 57 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 3: But I think the two things that stand out to 58 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 3: me with sleep is that it's a time during the 59 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: day where our body can actually repair and restore. So 60 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: we really need that time to you know, strengthen our bodies. 61 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: We also need that time to detoxify as well, and 62 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 3: so over the course of the day, you know, we 63 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: we might be building up certain toxins in our body, 64 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 3: and at night we you know, if we're relaxed and 65 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 3: we're sleeping, well, we should be able to let go 66 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: of some of these toxins. And so I think it's 67 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 3: you know, when you're not sleeping properly, even things like 68 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: growth hormone is affected. And so you see in aging people, 69 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 3: you know, as we get older, people have more and 70 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 3: more trouble sleeping, and so you'll start to see the 71 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 3: muscle wasting in especially older people. Perhaps when you're younger, 72 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 3: you don't really see or notice that as much, but 73 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 3: when you get older, if you're not sleeping properly, it 74 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: can manifest as muscle wasting and it's a sign that 75 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 3: they're just not sleeping properly. And so during the phase 76 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 3: of the night when you're supposed to be secreting or 77 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 3: producing growth hormone. It's just not happening adequately enough. So 78 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: it's happening with our older people. It's happening with a 79 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 3: lot of young people today too, Richard. And this is 80 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 3: a big concern because of the developing brain in young children. 81 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 3: So these poor children are not developing properly simply because 82 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 3: they might be on screens until one o'clock in the morning, 83 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 3: and then they have to get to get up early 84 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 3: and go to school, and some schools start at eight 85 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 3: o'clock in the morning. So these kids are probably only 86 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 3: getting five, maybe six hours of sleep at night because 87 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: they're just not going to bed at normal hours. I 88 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 3: don't know about you, Richard, but in the nineteen sixties, 89 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 3: you know, or seventies even, I mean, we would go 90 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 3: to bed at nine or ten o'clock at night. That 91 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 3: was normal, and we didn't have the distraction of these screens. 92 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 3: So we were sleeping better, you know, a few decades 93 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 3: ago than we are today. So I think what's happened. 94 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 3: I think what has to happen with children is we 95 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 3: have to remove the screens, certainly from their bedrooms and 96 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 3: make sure that they're going to bed at respectable hours. 97 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to get around to blue light in 98 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: a moment. But you know, we're spending I don't know, 99 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: it's a huge industry, the sleep industry. We're spending, you know, 100 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 2: so much money on the latest mattresses designed by NASA 101 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: for crying out loud and pillow we're trying all sorts 102 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: of different pillows and linen and all cooling blankets and 103 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: all of and beds that you know, you can raise 104 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 2: the feed or you can raise the change the temperature 105 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: on one side of the bed. And yet despite all 106 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 2: of the money we're throwing at bedding and mattresses, nobody's 107 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 2: getting a good sleep. It's it's an epidemic. Nobody's talking 108 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: about it, but we're all miserable in our beds. You know, 109 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 2: our ancestors slept under the stars on a cold ground. 110 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 2: Why did you know what made their rest so solid 111 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: compared to our tossing and turning. 112 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 3: Right, Well, they were respecting the rhythms. They were respecting 113 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 3: light and dark. So they would get up in the morning, 114 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 3: they would watch the sunrise, and they would be outside 115 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 3: all day long, most or most of the day anyway, 116 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 3: and they would watch the sunset. So they were actually 117 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 3: actually getting the medicine that they needed for sleep just 118 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 3: by being outside in the sun. And unfortunately, especially since 119 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 3: the nineteen eighties, late nineteen eighties, early nineteen nineties, when 120 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 3: the Internet started coming into our lives, we became cave 121 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: men by being indoors more often, we didn't go outside. 122 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: We hardly go outside these days because so many people 123 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 3: are on their computers, and so we've lost that connection 124 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 3: to nature that our ancestors had. And that they also 125 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 3: didn't have shoes, so or if they did have shoes, 126 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 3: they were leather bound, and so they could actually ground 127 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: to the earth. They didn't have rubber interrupting the electron 128 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 3: flow between the bottom of their feet and earth. So 129 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 3: they had the ability to actually be you know, having rhythms, 130 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 3: be honored by the earth and by the sun. And 131 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: we don't really have that connection today, unfortunately. So they 132 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 3: would go to bed at the sunset and they would 133 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 3: get up at sunrise, and that's today. You'd see farmers 134 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 3: do that, of course more than more or less, depending 135 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 3: all kind of agriculture they're doing, but more or less 136 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 3: they're going to be going to bed at sun set 137 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 3: and getting up at sunrise. And most people today are 138 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 3: really you know, they're staying up late hours, they're going 139 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: to bed at erratic hours. You know, they may be 140 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 3: getting up really really early in the morning for work, 141 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 3: but they probably haven't had you know, seven to nine 142 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 3: hours of sleep because of all of the chaos in 143 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 3: their lives and all the distractions from you know, Netflix 144 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 3: or whatever it is they're watching on TV at night. 145 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 2: So let's get back to the screens. And many of 146 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 2: us take our smartphones to bed and we're doing that 147 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 2: death scroll on social media and so forth until we 148 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 2: doze off. What's the science behind how I guess it's 149 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 2: blue light from screens messes things up, keeps us wired 150 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 2: when we should be out cold. 151 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's there are many different colors in the light 152 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 3: that you're looking at on your screen or you know, 153 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 3: in your kitchen or wherever. So there's a lot of 154 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 3: different colors. It comes out as looking potentially white, but 155 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 3: within the spectrum, the color that is the most stimulating 156 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 3: for our nervous system is going to be the blue 157 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 3: within the spectrum, and that blue light sends a signal 158 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: to our brain to basically release your hormones that tell 159 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 3: you you're awake. And those are hormones like you know, 160 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: cortisol and adrenaline. And so as I'm talking to you 161 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 3: right now and it's after one o'clock in the morning, 162 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 3: I decided I'm going to have my lights on to 163 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 3: tell my body that I'm awake because I want to 164 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 3: be able to have a healthy conversation with you, Richard. 165 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 3: So I have bright lights on top of me right 166 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 3: now because I want to be alert. And so it's 167 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 3: releasing hormones in my body to tell me it's daylight. 168 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 3: And you know that I have to stay sharp. So 169 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 3: if I, you know, go to bed at night, I 170 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 3: need complete darkness so it doesn't send that signal to 171 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: my hormones that it's daylight. And so what's happening is, 172 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 3: of course, a lot of people keep their lights on, 173 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 3: and you know, at ten o'clock at night, they might 174 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 3: be watching TV. They might have their lights on bright, 175 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 3: and they turn their lights off to go to sleep 176 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 3: at night, and they can't sleep because they're still producing 177 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 3: too many of those hormones that tell you that you're awake. 178 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 3: And this is a big, big problem because it's actually 179 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 3: causing a cascade of other problems. It's going to send 180 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 3: the wrong signals for your blood sugar control as well. 181 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 3: So other hormones are also affected by all of this 182 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: synthetic light. And so what we need to do is 183 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: we need to you know, at a minimum, you know, 184 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: we're not going to escape all of this electricity today. 185 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 3: So I'm not saying to become pure tan and return 186 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: to the way we lived several thousand years ago, but 187 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 3: certainly there's some key things you can do to help 188 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 3: start rescheduling your body if. 189 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 5: You will, And I do want to get I do 190 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 5: want to get to those I just want to kind 191 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 5: of go through sort of the hindrances to a good sleep, 192 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 5: and then we'll start offering some solutions. 193 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 2: But let's talk about noise. Is we if you live 194 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: in the city, you've got this constant buzz in the 195 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 2: city of traffic sirens. How does that screw up our 196 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 2: ability to hit deep sleep cycles. 197 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's basically telling your body that if there's noise, 198 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 3: things aren't safe potentially, and for us to have a 199 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: really good night sleep, we have to feel safe. And 200 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 3: all of this noise is distracting us and setting our 201 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: nerve nervous system on fire. It's telling your nervous system 202 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 3: you know something is wrong. Because it really should be 203 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 3: quite peaceful and quiet when you go to sleep at night. 204 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 3: And so some people, I know, even myself, I wear 205 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 3: I wear earplugs to try and block out some of 206 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,719 Speaker 3: those noises so that I don't, you know, wake up 207 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 3: if I hear something. So you have to be in 208 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 3: a pretty quiet environment in order to have a good 209 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 3: night sleep, or else you're going to have a very 210 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 3: shallow sleep. Your body's going to be on alert, like 211 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 3: it's you're about to be attacked by a lion or 212 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 3: something like that. And so you want to be able 213 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 3: to feel really really safe in a quiet, nurturing environment. 214 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,599 Speaker 3: And so that's why they call the bedroom your you know, oasis. 215 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 3: It has to be set very intentionally so that you 216 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 3: can have a good night's sleep, and that includes the darkness, 217 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 3: and that includes quiet as well. 218 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: And what's the deal with electromagnetic fields, Let's say, from 219 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 2: from phones Wi fi? Are they zapping our circadian rhythm? 220 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: Yes? Yeah, it's one of the biggest interferences out there, 221 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 3: and we can't escape it. Practically. It's very you know'sbiquitous, 222 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 3: and what it's doing, it's your brain has waves in 223 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 3: going on. You have your alpha, your data you know, 224 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 3: you have all of these brain waves in going on 225 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 3: and they need to be you know, in sync for 226 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 3: you to have a good night's sleep. And what these 227 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 3: EMFs do, these man made EMFs, what they do is 228 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 3: they actually throw off your body's electrical circuitry and that 229 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: includes your brain waves, and so it can really really 230 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 3: throw off your sleep. And that's one of the biggest 231 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 3: complaints that I have when I talk to people, is 232 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 3: that they notice when they have their router on at night, 233 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 3: or if they're surrounded by a lot of electrical equipment 234 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: in and around their bedroom, they complain that they can't 235 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 3: sleep at night. And then when they change their environment 236 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 3: in their bedroom, let's say they turn their breaker off 237 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 3: to their bedroom and they start removing these this dirty electricity, 238 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 3: if you will, then all of a sudden, their sleep improves. 239 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 3: So it's a pretty amazing, you know, cause and effect 240 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 3: relationship that can go on once you start reducing your 241 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 3: exposure to these non native EMFs. So that's one of 242 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 3: the biggest factors I see. I mean, the the EMFs 243 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 3: do other things to the body as well, but where 244 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 3: sleep is concerned, it certainly disrupts. It certainly disrupts your sleep. 245 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: There's no question about that. Very quickly, because I've only 246 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: got about thirty seconds here and then I got to 247 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 2: go to a break. Why eight hours? And we can 248 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: continue this conversation after the break. But why eight hours? 249 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 2: Is that an arbitrary number? 250 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 3: I think it's probably an arbitrary number, but I think 251 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 3: it's a number. 252 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 4: It's a number that I. 253 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: Think we need to respect. I think a lot of 254 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 3: people are going to tell you more times than not 255 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 3: that if they get a good, solid eight hours of 256 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 3: sleep at night, they're going to feel a lot better 257 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: the next day. I don't think six hours is adequate. 258 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 3: Nine hours might be good for a lot of people, 259 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 3: but I think it's really just a consistent feeling across 260 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 3: the board. If people get eight hours of sleep at night, 261 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 3: and it's good quality sleep, they're going to have a 262 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 3: pretty good day the next day. 263 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: Listen to more Coast to Coast AM every weeknight at 264 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: one a m.
