A recent study found that the average person spends more than 10 hours a day in front of a screen. (Ten!)

Andy Mant is the founder and CEO of BLUblox, a company specialising in evidence-based advanced light-filtering eyewear. He started the company following a powerful personal experience — after succumbing to health and weight issues that wouldn’t resolve with the traditional dietary approach, Andy stumbled across the role that light plays in our health. By changing his exposure to light, he was able to transform his body and energy levels. And today, Andy is a leading figure in managing light to improve health and wellbeing.
My husband and I have been passionate about blue-blocking eyewear for years, and we’re thrilled that this issue is becoming more mainstream. But there’s a lot of conflicting information out there (and — unfortunately — some dodgy products). That’s one of the reasons I love Andy’s approach so much: his work is backed by hard data, and his lenses match the evidence in the academic literature.
So if you want to hear the truth about what your screentime is doing to your health, learn the simple-yet-powerful hacks to reduce your blue light exposure, and discover how to get the best sleep of your life, then pop in those earbuds and press play — this conversation is for you.
