Forget everything you thought you knew about biology. Dr Nirosha Murugan takes us way beyond molecules into the world of light, electricity and the energetic language of life itself. Here we explore a radical new lens on human health: one where energy, not just chemistry, drives disease, healing and even consciousness.
From the role of light in cancer and red light therapy, to cells that 'think' without brains, to why homeostasis might be the wrong goal altogether.
We cover:
⚡ Why biology might be better understood as patterns of energy
🧠 “Thinking” organisms that don’t have brains
🌞 How light (even in the womb) shapes our biology
🧬 Reframing cancer through the lens of energy resistance
🧘♀️ Bioelectricity, metabolism & the limits of current science
🌀 Consciousness as emergent energy, not brain activity
This episode is a ride - part biology, part physics, part philosophy - and all energy.
