#32 - Is Modern Lighting Disrupting Your Metabolism? Mitochondria & Photometabolism With Prof Bob Fosbury
17/08/2026 | 1h 55 mins.Astrophysicist Professor Bob Fosbury joins Dr Sara Pugh to explain photometabolism — the role of light, and especially near-infrared, in mitochondrial health, diabetes, obesity and ageing.
We look at how modern lighting starves us of the infrared our mitochondria evolved to expect, why white LEDs are not the neutral choice they appear to be, and what incandescent bulbs, red light, sunlight, cold exposure and forest bathing actually do at the level of the electron transport chain. Bob takes us through water vibrations as an intermediary in electron transport and gives practical, actionable lifestyle suggestions.

Takeaways
Modern indoor lighting cuts off the near-infrared our mitochondria evolved to expect — an infrared starvation with metabolic consequences.
Infrared light acts as a lubricant for the mitochondrial engine rather than as a fuel.
Water vibrations work as an intermediary in electron transport, and Marcus theory explains the barrier crossing involved.
Gentle, broad-spectrum infrared — incandescent bulbs, firelight, sunlight through leaves — matters more than intensity.
Natural environments, forest bathing and cold exposure act on the same metabolic machinery as light does.

10/08/2026 | 1h 16 mins.Estonian EMF specialist Olle Kitsing joins Dr Sara Pugh to unpack the hidden sources of non-native EMF inside modern homes — Wi-Fi and 5G, electric and magnetic fields from household wiring and appliances, radiofrequency radiation from phones, Bluetooth and wearables, dirty electricity, and artificial light.
Olle explains why the bedroom is the most important place to begin, and why identifying and measuring the source must come before you buy any shielding or grounding sheets.
We cover how to brief an electrician on EMF work, setting up low-EMF internet with optic fibre, grounding laptops safely, what to do about earbuds, watches and CGMs, phone settings that actually matter, and the key decisions when building a low-EMF house.

Takeaways
The bedroom is where EMF mitigation should always start — night-time is the most critical period.
Measure and identify the source first; shielding and grounding products bought blind often make things worse.
Grounding should never be done through an outlet.
Wired alternatives — optic fibre, ethernet, corded headphones — remove most exposure without giving up technology.
Mitigating EMF can produce rapid, noticeable health improvements.

27/07/2026 | 53 mins.Professor Glen Jeffery returns for Part 2 of our discussion on the science of light and human health. We explore how infrared and red light influence mitochondrial function, blood glucose regulation, systemic inflammation, ageing and recovery. Glen also discusses his latest research on circulating microvesicles, explains why modern LED lighting differs from natural sunlight, and shares practical ways to improve the light environment at home, at work and in hospitals. We also answer viewer questions about red light masks, incandescent bulbs, insulin and blue-blocking glasses.

14/07/2026 | 1h 15 mins.In this conversation, Dr Sara Pugh speaks with Professor Konstantin Korotkov, inventor of the Bio-Well (GDV) and a scientist with over 50 years of research, about the science of biofields, structured water, biophotons and consciousness. They explore quantum physics, auras, free radicals, redox biology, magnetism, plasma physics, life after death, telepathy, meditation and environmental energy. The discussion also covers high-energy healing locations, sacred sites, pyramids, underground tunnels, and why Professor Korotkov believes these phenomena can be investigated using scientific instruments.

DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Please consult your healthcare provider before making any medical decisions. Views expressed by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect those of the host.- In this conversation, Dr. Ralf Otterpohl — engineer, researcher, and practitioner with extensive work in water systems and soil remediation — and I explore the concept of vital energy and its central role in health, happiness, and healing. We discuss how restoring nutrients to the soil connects directly to the quality of the food we eat, and why that matters more than most people realise.
Dr. Otterpohl shares his insights on dietary choices, particularly the importance of healthy fats, minerals like lithium and sodium, and trace elements in supporting mental and physical wellbeing. He also raises concerns about the risks of restrictive diets, including vegan approaches, when key nutrients are overlooked.
We go deeper into the nature of trauma and how unresolved energy blockages can limit personal development. Ralph explains approaches to trauma resolution, including EMDR, and we explore the often-overlooked influence of family entanglements and how burdens carried across generations can affect us today. The conversation also touches on previous existences and their potential influence on present experience, as well as geomancy — the practice of clearing negative energies from land and spaces.
Ralph closes with practical information on training opportunities for those who want to apply these tools in their own lives and work.
