Episode 6 presents a groundbreaking exploration of light’s profound impact on human health, featuring an in-depth conversation with Andy Mant, founder and CEO of BLUblox (soon to be rebranded as Bon Charge), a pioneering company in evidence-based light-filtering eyewear.
This episode delves into the critical yet often overlooked relationship between light and human biology, examining:
- The intricate ways light influences daily rhythms and hormonal balance
- Light’s role in behavioural patterns and health vulnerabilities
- Strategies for developing personalised light interventions
- Practical approaches to optimising your light environment
- Complex interactions between sunscreen, vitamin D, and light receptors
- Implications of light exposure on mitochondrial health
Andy Mant brings a unique perspective to the discussion, having developed BLUblox after recognising significant gaps in blue light blocking technology. His journey from dissatisfaction with existing eyewear to becoming a leading expert in light’s biological impacts exemplifies innovative problem-solving in health technology.
Beyond technological innovation, BLUblox stands out for its commitment to ethical manufacturing. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, their lenses are meticulously crafted and fitted in Australia. The company’s social impact extends further through a remarkable “buy one, donate one” partnership with Restoring Vision, providing eyewear to those in need.
