About this listen

Life at the subatomic level, for people who know there's more health than we've been told. Grab the guide at www.qbcpod.com Is your light environment more important than the food you eat? How does sunlight help depression? Does a barefoot walk outside boost your immune system? Hosted by Meredith Oke, The Quantum Biology Collective Podcast features pioneering health professionals who study, apply and explain the emerging field of applied quantum biology. It's a new paradigm of understanding how human health REALLY works that is light years beyond the current traditional medical model. Quantum biology, or biophysics, is the bridge from the bio-chemical, newtonian model to the new paradigm of energy medicine that view our bodies as electric liquid crystal, not machines. From the vast research showing that circadian rhythms regulate every important process and pathway in the body, to emerging research that quantum mechanical processes are taking place in our cells—this new world is the missing link that you’re searching for.Copyright 2025 All rights reserved.

  • 136: Scott Zimmerman - The Hidden Power of Sunlight: How Infrared Light Fuels Your Biology
    Jul 3 2025

    📺 Watch & Subscribe on YouTube

    "There are dozens of ways to quantify sunlight. And it matters how we present the data because it can mislead, hide, or enlighten," says Scott Zimmerman, who joins the Quantum Biology Collective Podcast to reveal how our understanding of light's impact on health is fundamentally flawed. Zimmerman explains that by reframing how we measure sunlight—focusing on photons per second per area per energy unit—we can better grasp its crucial role in metabolic health.

    Zimmerman unveils groundbreaking insights into the body's quantum-level interactions with light, particularly in the infrared spectrum. He discusses how this knowledge could revolutionize our approach to lighting, potentially addressing the surge in metabolic diseases. Zimmerman also shares startling findings on how artificial lighting affects our biology, including impacts on color perception and hormone regulation.

    Tune in to today's episode to learn why your office lighting might be sabotaging your health, how sunlight acts as a "battery" for your body, and why the shade might be more beneficial than you think. Discover the hidden quantum world influencing your health with every photon.

    5 Key Takeaways

    1. Get regular exposure to full-spectrum sunlight, especially during daytime hours. This provides the broadband light our biology needs for optimal functioning.

    2. When indoors, use lighting that mimics natural sunlight's spectrum, including infrared wavelengths. Consider replacing LED bulbs with full-spectrum alternatives.

    3. Limit exposure to narrow-spectrum artificial light, particularly at night. This includes reducing screen time before bed and blocking out streetlights in sleeping areas.

    4. Spend time outdoors in natural shade when possible. Shade provides beneficial infrared light without excessive UV exposure.

    5. For children, prioritize outdoor time and full-spectrum lighting even more, as their developing bodies are especially sensitive to light exposure.

    Memorable Quotes

    1. "We need to reframe the way we think about light from just something we need to see to an essential life source, food source for our body, just in a different form."

    2. "There is a huge difference, even the 850nm helped a little bit on some of the color contrast, but it was really the incandescent that saw the big change. I would argue if he could actually do a controlled experiment with sunlight, you would see improvement even further."

    3. "We're now moving from 'go do something and a day or two later, test it' to a timescale of minutes. Once you start doing that, you see all these different processes responding. The body can't wait four hours to respond to a major event or even a small event like a burn."

  • 135: Sarah Kleiner - Consistency Over Perfection: How to Build a Healthier Life with Sunlight
    Jun 26 2025

    📺 Watch & Subscribe on YouTube

    Discover the transformative power of sunlight on your health with Sarah Kleiner, a leading expert in circadian rhythms and quantum biology. In this eye-opening episode, Sarah reveals how proper light exposure can boost metabolism, regulate hormones, and enhance overall well-being. Learn why indoor living may be sabotaging your health goals and how to harness the sun's energy for optimal vitality. From debunking common sun myths to exploring the science behind UV light benefits, this conversation offers practical tips for integrating sunlight into your daily routine. Whether you're battling weight issues, struggling with energy levels, or simply seeking natural ways to improve your health, Sarah's insights will revolutionize your approach to wellness. Don't miss this illuminating discussion on the often-overlooked connection between light and health!

    5 Key Takeaways

    1. Get morning sunlight exposure consistently, ideally within an hour of waking. This helps regulate your circadian rhythm and metabolism.

    2. Aim for 20 minutes of outdoor light during the UVA window after sunrise to support appetite regulation and fat burning.

    3. Use a wide-brimmed hat and protective eyewear when exposed to intense glare from water, snow, or sand to prevent retinal damage.

    4. Download the My Circadian app to track optimal sun exposure times and measure light levels throughout the day.

    5. Dim lights and use blue-blocking glasses 3 hours before bed, aiming for under 10 lux in your evening environment to support melatonin production.

    Memorable Quotes"Light really gives the body instructions to do everything we need it to do. We want the right type of light at the right times, and then enough darkness at the right times.""If your days are too dim and your nights are too bright, that alone slows down the metabolism. You can go on a very restrictive diet, eat clean, try to do all the things, yet live the way that everyone lives, and still struggle.""I'm not interested in having conversations where I tell people exactly what to do. I want to have thoughtful dialogue and connect with people. The worst teachers think the healing was all because of them. The best teachers remind you that the healing was yours all along."Connect with Sarah

  • 134: Jay & Jaydee Azavari - Living in Rhythm: Family Sovereignty & The Cycles of Nature
    Jun 19 2025

    📺 Watch & Subscribe on YouTube

    "No matter how much we did with Ada, it was maximum we could reach maybe 50 to 70 kids. And that would be us working ourselves to the bone," says Jay Azavari, who joins the Quantum Biology Collective podcast with his partner Jaydee to discuss their journey from running a nature-based school to launching a podcast that aims to empower individuals to question societal norms and make sovereign choices.

    The Azavaris share their experiences in homeschooling, unschooling, and creating an outdoor education program during the pandemic. They explain how quantum biology principles have shaped their approach to health, education, and parenting. Jay discusses the profound connection between music, vibration, and quantum physics, while Jaydee reveals how her background in midwifery influenced their educational philosophy.

    Tune in to today's episode to learn why the Azavaris believe in fostering children's innate wisdom, how they integrate quantum biological concepts into daily life, and what inspired them to create their new podcast, Rising Sovereign. Discover how this couple is challenging conventional paradigms and encouraging others to explore alternative paths in health, education, and personal growth.

    5 Key Takeaways

    1. Align with natural light cycles to improve sleep and overall wellbeing. Try eating breakfast outside, using red light glasses in the evening, and turning off lights when the sun goes down.

    2. Question assumptions about what you can and can't do, especially regarding health and education. Consider learning basic medical skills or exploring alternative schooling options.

    3. Incorporate nature immersion and outdoor time into children's education and daily life. This can build resilience and connection to natural rhythms.

    4. Explore music and sound as a way to understand vibrational principles in the body and universe. Use this to tap into your innate wisdom and creativity.

    5. Make choices aligned with your values, even if they go against societal norms. Focus on what feels right for you and your family rather than external expectations.

    Memorable Quotes"We've always been the type of person looking for more, continuing to see what's behind the curtain. There are other aspects to the story that aren't revealed front and center. This has shaped an incredible, unique journey throughout our lives." - Jaydee Azavari"Quantum biology provides a framework to ground a lot of these concepts. There's been a large mystical component to my worldview shaped by music, vibration, spirituality, shamanic explorations, and altered states of consciousness. It links back to ancient wisdom but articulates it in a new language." - Jay Azavari"We want to promote the idea that it's okay to make different choices. What's really under that? What are you looking to achieve and why are you making your choices? How are they aligned with you or not? No one can know more about a woman's birth than her. Applying that to other areas - I can't really grasp the totality of someone else's family dynamics. I can share my perspective and be witness to them, hopefully in a non-judgmental way." - Jaydee AzavariConnect with Jay & Jaydee
