Episode 100: The Truth About the Sun — Debunking 8 Myths with Quantum Biologist Carrie Bennett It’s hard to believe, but we’ve made it to Episode 100 of The TAG Podcast — and what better way to celebrate this milestone than with one of my favorite people in the world, Carrie Bennett, MS . Carrie isn’t just a brilliant teacher and researcher; she was also one of my instructors when I studied Quantum Biology through the Institute of Quantum Biology. Her ability to break down complex science into something clear, practical, and life-changing is second to none. In this special episode, we’re diving deep into the myths and misconceptions surrounding the sun — one of the most misunderstood aspects of human health. For decades, we’ve been told to fear the sun, cover up, and slather on sunscreen. But modern quantum biology tells a very different story.
