Turn Sunlight into Cash

Sort of

Just woke up?

Get sunlight on your face. We’re talking before you brush your teeth.

Scientists, and especially recently viral scientists such as Andrew Hubermann, have emphasized the importance of getting that sunlight in your face in the morning. 

But why?

Well, here are some of the benefits of getting that morning sunlight:

  • Your circadian rhythms are adjusted to the new day

  • Morning sunlight spikes your cortisol in the RIGHT way, allowing you to focus on your work better

  • Helps you fall asleep at night (good one for all you insomniacs)

  • Nice bit of Vitamin D is good for the skin innit? (pardon my British accent)

  • Can help eliminate acne

Cool, but what can I do with this info?

Well, first, you can start by going out into the sun in the morning. Other than that, I know your entrepreneurial spidey sense is tingling. Let's make something big with this info. 

For all you go-getters Let’s dive into some business ideas in this space.

You could go the supplement route: One such startup, Herbodee, creates Vitamin D supplements to help out with the functions of the body. 

Basically, the premise is that because people are lazy, they don’t go outside and get enough sunlight. So, Herbodee will save the day!

In fact, it’s made from yellow oat grass. If you know what that even is- Food for thought.

App Route: If you’re technical, know someone who is technical, or have a couple of grand to dish out, you could go the app route. 

A big app in this space is Circadian, which helps you regulate your circadian rhythms. How though?

Well, for one it gives you a personalized dashboard for your circadian metrics. Think about sleep rhythms, exercise timings, when to be in the light vs dark, intermittent fasting windows, temperature recommendations, and more.

Basically, it’s got you covered.

But, there is room to innovate in this space- specifically, for businesses. 

Hear me out: A B2B health monitoring company for the enterprise. Specifically, it would check things like vitamin D levels, circadian rhythms, and more. There are, however, some competitors in the space, such as TadHealth (a b2b health monitoring startup), but the ocean is huge.

And there’s room for Plenty of Fish (not the dating app).

You could make Health Optimization content on youtube or TikTok:

Before you dish out a TikTok video asking doctors how much they earn, hear me out: 

You can document your health optimization journey- show, don’t tell, about the effects of morning sunlight. An example of this is the youtube channel, “The Fasting Fatman”, which showed the journey of a 400-pound man losing hundreds of pounds by fasting. Riveting content.

Anyways, lads, hopefully, we’ve shed light on some business thoughts for ya…

Catch you later.
