The Quantum Biology Collective Podcast

The Quantum Biology Collectivewww.qbcpod.com
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.
