🔦Why does light therapy work?- from a Certified Light Therapist
Because it helps the body release Nitric Oxide. (Another super antioxidant I’m really obsessed with!)
Red, infrared, and near-infrared light help activate the mitochondria inside our cells and stimulate them to produce more nitric oxide and ATP—adenosine triphosphate (energy).
💡Increased nitric oxide (NO) helps cardio vascular heath, increasing vasodilation which improves blood flow.
💡NO helps support brain health, increasing memory and helps neurons communicate between each other acting as a signaling molecule.
💡NO helps improve the immune system and can help with pain and inflammation.
Have you jumped on the red light train? How are you using it?
