Is the sun really your enemy? In this episode of The Unplugged Healthcast, Dr. Kevin Wall sits down with light therapy expert Ken Ceder, founder of SOLshine. Together, they unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in modern health: the role of sunlight, UV exposure, and light-based therapies in true wellness.

They explore why we've been conditioned to fear the sun, how light acts as a nutrient for the body and brain, and why your sunscreen might be doing more harm than good. You’ll learn about mal-illumination (the light version of malnutrition), the dangers of fluorescent lighting, and how photobiomodulation and red light therapy are changing the game in natural healing. Plus, Dr. Wall closes the episode with eight natural ways to support your body and reduce cancer risk—without relying on toxic SPF.

Whether you're a skeptic or a sun-lover, this episode will radically shift the way you view light and its connection to your health.

Guest Bio:

Ken Ceder is the founder and director of SOLshine, a company dedicated to educating people on the essential role of natural light in human health. For over 35 years, Ken has been at the forefront of light-based wellness, inspired by his mentor Dr. John Ott, a pioneer in photobiology and time-lapse photography. Ken was instrumental in bringing the original Ott Light to market and continues to advocate for what he calls photonutrition—the idea that full-spectrum sunlight is a vital nutrient for the body and brain. Through SOLshine, Ken helps individuals and practitioners reconnect with the healing power of light, challenging the mainstream narrative that the sun is something to fear. His lifelong passion: to reverse the modern epidemic of “mal-illumination” and help people thrive in the light they were designed for.

Most people see a fever or runny nose as something to fix. But what if those symptoms are actually signs your body’s doing exactly what it’s supposed to?

In this episode, Dr. Kevin Wall teams up with Dr. Jennifer Bush to challenge the mainstream mindset around sickness. They break down why getting sick isn’t something to fear—it’s how your body builds real, lasting immunity. From vomiting and coughing to chills and congestion, your body has a reason for every reaction.

They also expose how common meds might be blocking your healing, how modern products weaken your defenses, and what it really means when you're getting sick over and over again.

If you’ve ever wondered why some people bounce back in a day while others stay sick for weeks, this conversation could change how you think about your health for good.
