Biohacking

I wear these blue-light blocking glasses every evening after 7pm, but I find it hard to measure the effect on my sleep (too many factors involved)

Scientific evidence is inconclusive but imo the amount of blue light -plus intensity and flickering- can’t be ignored. Would like to see more research.

Do you use them?

I don’t currently but have in the past. Interestingly, I was listening to a Huberman Labs podcast ep recently with him and Peter Attia and they were discussing this — he advocated for not using them and instead focusing on increasing light/dark exposure at appropriate times.

Makes sense. With the current evidence is better to stick to what has plenty of evidence as getting a dose of natural light during sunrise and first hours of the day. 
But did he explain why he advocated against the glasses?

This article is also worth a look:

I can’t find the clip but this is the ep I think: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2WAURbTJ5afxr0pcu4cu2b?si=xJ9s0658RxKSo8GPMxuDoQ

I can’t remember exactly but I think it was more about favoring limiting screen exposure if possible, although they discussed benefits of limiting blue light at night.

Thanks for sharing it, I’ll listen to it tomorrow while getting some early sunlight 😜
