Sunlight exposure in the morning is crucial for regulating cortisol levels and enhancing energy throughout the day. On sunny days, just 5-10 minutes outside can suffice, while cloudy days may require up to 30 minutes. Prioritizing this practice helps set the stage for optimal energy and improved sleep patterns.In this clip

What about accumulating 100,000 Lux minutes of light exposure in the morning as recommended by Andrew Huberman in the episode Using Science to Optimize Sleep, Learning & Metabolism | Huberman Lab Podcast #3 and the clip Moonlight and Circadian Rhythms? He suggested five minutes if the illumination from the sun is 20,000 Lux or about 15 minutes if the illumination is 7,000 Lux. Has this concept changed in subsequent episodes of the Huberman Lab Podcast, specifically regarding the recommendation for quantifying how much time I need to spend getting light exposure based on the brightness of the sun on a given morning?
