My son has been suffering in severe physical pain for over a year, from blood clots moving through his heart and lungs. Thus far, laser red light therapy I've been doing with a handheld device at home has shown to be so far the only effective treatment. Doctors are not involved with his treatments beyond blood thinners, and we've had 0 help from them , so we are doing all on our own. 2 days ago, while passing a clot, he could feel the red light break apart a large blood clot in his lung into small pieces. I'm praying this works for him. Thanks, guys, for this video and for sharing the information!
Maybe looking into the mechanism of "zeta potential" will provide you also with some additional ideas for a treatment protocol. It's about the negativ charge of our red blood cells which keep them apart and free flowing. Groundig helps, e.g. walking barefoot on mother earth who is a sea of electrons. Best wishes
Take a supplement called nattokinase. It is what is getting rid of the blood clots from the experimental medical intervention people were told to take. It works. Within days it will go away/
I think don’t study people study the sun and the different infrared spectrums as you pass through the day that changes whatever the sun is is the perfect ratio for the human being just like God created and it was good
For the past three months, I’ve been using a red light therapy device from Future Form Official, and it’s been nothing short of transformative. I’m 68 years old, and I first gave it a try after struggling with lingering shoulder pain from an old tennis injury. My daughter had been urging me to do something for my well-being. I started dedicating 15 minutes each morning, focusing on my lower back, shoulders, and sometimes even my knees after a long walk with my dog, Max. What surprised me the most wasn’t just the relief in my joints-although that’s been incredible-but how much better I feel overall. I’ve always been an early riser, but now I wake up with more energy and less stiffness. The most unexpected change, though, has been my skin. My sister, who’s always been the one to have a “glow,” recently asked me what I was doing differently because my skin looked “fresh”. For someone who’s always kept it simple with skincare, that’s a big deal! If you’re looking for something that feels gentle yet delivers noticeable results, I’d recommend red light therapy in a heartbeat-it’s really helped me in ways I didn’t expect.
If you're interested in different red light devices, you may find Alex Fergus helpful. Red light therapy is his passion. He tests most devices on the market and compares them.
@@notadonna5983 I’ve been dealing with a cartilage problem in one knee for about a year now. Some days I limp. Some days the gait is fine. It is rather unpredictable. I just try to keep walking and paying attention to balance. The red light has definitely improved my sleep. I figure that is foundational to other improvements.
I have been sticking red light up my nose for over 20 years (Rhinobeam) and it is the only thing that fixed my sinusitis after bodged surgery and years of steroids.
I was fortunate to be treated by one of those vets who also ran a human photonic therapy practice - the late Dr Brian McLaren, Australia. He sparked my interest in red light therapy back in 1996 (I was 14). I own a panel and a photonic torch thesedays, as do all my family members. I also use it for my rescue Greyhound. Great interview. Thank you!
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you! What a humble man of integrity Dr Jeffery seems to be. Also, I've listened to many talks on red light but still learnt so much from this. I've subscribed, as a consequence.
I suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome 30 yrs now. But my first college course biology heard again about ATP and what it did. I then asked professor in 1988 what can I do to increase my ATP to make more energy. Funny cause at that time he had no answer. So I kept researching myself and now take suppliments to increase my ATP like gensing and co q10 NADH and resveratrol amino acids etc to many to list. So is there anything you would suggest to further u crease my energy. I use red lite now about last 5 years or more. With degree in Health Ed. I really appreciate this info. Thanks again.
I was taking like 15 suppliments per day and the stated watching some videos with Morley Robbins I've started doing some of them and my need for suppliments has dropped down to 10 or 20% of what I was taking. He's a very interesting fellow.
Fascinating interview. I have listened to many on this topic and this is by far the most informative. Dr Jeffrey is a fine human being, full of integrity, humility and kindness. I have been using a full panel a few times a week for 12 minutes (front only). I will pare this down. One thing that happened was my left eye (for which I have needs a prescription lens to read, due to presbyopia) suddenly returned to normal close-up vision. I had to knock the lens out of my glasses before getting a new pair. Also, my optometrist said she has never seen anything like this, or the disappearance of two new cataracts, that we were waiting to “ripen.” I am 72.
I thought you have to wear eye protection goggles with the red light lamps, can you recommend which type to buy as my eyes are getting worse. Thank you Angie UK
I’m trying to improve eyes. Lots of floaters and dry eye. I hear red light can work. Do you wear goggles and if not. Are your eyes open in front of the panel? How far away from the panel?
@boomcg4351 My Dad had eye floaters (he passed at 91) I wish I had known about bad seed oils and their impact on the eyes, joints, and connective tissue 10 years ago.

"You tend to ignore what you can't see" I thought about how we as humans ignore God's existence because we can't see Him... but just because we don't see Him, does not mean that He is not here.
I have relapsed into my CFS and have extremely low energy, Red light can be a great tool to help. Also Dr Sarah Myhill in the UK is on the leading edge of helping CFS sufferers. Keto diet, vit c and Iodine are the base therapies in which she adds more depth.
I’m a breast cancer survivor but still need to continue hormonal treatment called “Aromasin” which results in incredible muscle inflammation and joint aches. Hence I was hoping an infrared PEMF mat would be such a helpful product. But now Dr Glenn mentioned that red light therapy is not advisable for cancer patients? Wouldn’t it be beneficial to my mitochondria then?
He emphasized that he was guessing, based on his observation that red lite causes bacteria to grow faster. I came across a study that conclude it does not make cancer worse. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3423866/ I think it might actually help because it causes the good cells to become healthier. A stronger immune system can kill cancer cells more effectively.
Husband and I been using red lite for maybe 5 yrs at 70. Our cats love it and we know it helps them and their aging also. Thanks for info on eyes especially been wondering if helps and how etc. Great info thanks so much. I take a magnesium that includes all three myself. Have been taking many years. Husband takes one regular one.
So red light therapy is most effective in the morning, but one usually has the largest meal at dinner time which is in the evening so if you’re trying to minimize the glucose spike, should you use the red light therapy in the morning before in the evening?
@@ModernHealthspan I didn't understand why he was talking about using red light after he had bicycled to work. Surely he's just been bathed in massive amounts of red light from the Sun.
That’s correct - green foliage amplifies infrared light. There’s a great video by Friendly Pharmacy 5 featuring Dr Roger Seheult explaining how that works and the biological effects and benefits. All the best
From the 59:58 min to the 1:01:45 min mark it sounds like a Red Light Therapy session from a device is beneficial at night to help with sleep but that same night session won't help the body makie very much ATP to be used for later? Is this correct? I would like to give my body permission to make ATP anytime and store the rest till needed. Like dividends.
I have heard and it makes sense to me that the only possible problem would be if people take medicines and are warned to stay out of the sun - that would be something to be cautious of. I have several devices but my Hooga $40 plus shipping handheld floodlight type device is still my favorite. It is too bright for my eyes and not easy to use on my back so I bought a wrap. I love my red light/infrared - helps aches and pains, eases my bone on bone basal thumb arthritis night pain, healed a abscess on my dog - best device ever. It is my favorite gift to give.
@@Nando_lifts2021 I was tryjng to say that if you take medicine and are told to avoid the sun then you should also avoid red light/infrared as it has some of the same wavelengths as sunlight. I know some medicines will cause people to blister or have hives if they get out in direct sunlight.
To increase the mitochondria in your body, does your Whole body need to be in front of the light or is it just as beneficial to have it shine on you hand or use it to improve your eye site?
Thanks, Richard. Fantastic interview with a heavy-hitter in the space. I’d like to know, though, does he recommend pulsed red light or a continuous beam when using red light lamps?
All the red light devices I’ve seen are made with LEDs. Given that the doctor’s statement about LED lightbulbs needs to be clarified…is it just household lighting that’s bad? Are ALL LEDs?
Great talk, very informative and enjoyable. May I ask if wavelength from 800-1000nm works for healthier mitochondria and more ATP generation? I have a Phillips Infrared heat lamp at home. It generates a lot of heat. Thanks
Hello Richard, I love your channel I thought this was a really great interview It seems like it has different applications I have several lights from EMR TEK Am I correct in understanding or concluding that he feels that just two minutes a day perhaps twice a week would be sufficient to get full reward from such. Do you have the impression that getting red light on all parts of the body is relevant? On one hand, he made it sound quite minimalist like any amount would just turn on a switch But realistically speaking, to me it would seem best to hit the full body for 10 to 20 minutes , thrice a week would be ideal. And his sharing about the children suffering from mitochondrial disfunction having dramatically improved results and improved function of body, seems like an exceptionally beautiful and touching story. 🙏🏼🦋💜 Keep up the great work, Richard
I use red light and it did help with a cold i had..i basically got it for my mitochondria since i had cancer..i thought you had to wear safety glasses though ..
So interesting, thank you. Would you discuss the processes in metabolism when mitochondria are “fed” fats instead of sugars as is the case in carnivor animals and humans (e.g., the work of DRs Med Ken Berry, Shawn Baker, prof Thomas Seyfried…) who find that carnivor (fats with meats) metabolism is cca twice as energy efficient as glucose metabolism and with much lower resulting inflammatory reactions. Would be so interesting to extend your research into the interplay of red light and fat metabolism of mitochondria.
I'm old. I've been using Red Light and NIR 3-4 times a week for about 2 years. I believe it helps my everyday health, BUT I can't feel any improvement in my energy level or general health.
Fantastic show. I got my red light panel a month ago and I am experiencing a lot of positive benefits. One of the best things I've done for my health. Now I know I will use these for the rest of my life
at 00:33:00 Glen seems to wonder the big question...WHY no trials? Physical interventions around this issue make people become permanentally no customers to the patent chemistry industry. These aged career researchers have no broad understanding of the level of greed and corruption around them. Anything selling product will in the end become corrupt. Even the niche good ones are bought to non existence by the industry gov axis. Why else would the bureaucrate scaremonger against sun exposure and cholesteron increase. Doing the opposite kills only metabolic stress in the mitochondria.
Commercialism requires Scarcity - I guess it forces us to be very careful what information to trust - the 'system' wants us sick and in debt - so sad but true - good luck
Just a comment: Studies are beginning to demonstrate an effect of red light on blood sugar, etc., but you are overlooking the elephant in the room if you do not consider diet to be the primary causal factor in metabolic diseases. Red light provides a nice support for a healthy life style, but to think it is the main factor is not going to produce the dramatic effects that most people need.
I've seen papers reporting a biphasic dose response for transcranial LLLT, so I have wondered about overdosing. Red light also increases NO production, which is good to a point, but could result in higher peroxynitrite production.
Great interview and information. About Blue Light Blocking glasses- I wear them religiously at home and wearing them should be strongly considered after sundown(or yellow lenses if out and about at night). Ancestrally, our species drew down after sundown and people should not be getting Blue Light. It increases blood sugar, cortisol and lowers Melatonin. . People should use red filters on their computer screens and phones as well after sundown. Blue light after sundown is very deleterious. It signals our brains that it is still daytime and we need energy vs getting ready for sleep. Some feel that Nikolas Tesla's invention of night light was our species Dinosaur meteorite moment.
I just expose my feet and lower body swelling and redness on dorsum of left foot cleared . This swelling because of jogging 4 miles Yesterday .650-850nanometet .No we can not share them because delicate and if dropped finished . So now learned the less . I used red light since7 years for all pain any where any body .
For the bee's too. My wife loves you. She's an alley based small hive keeper. They died this paste early spring. Too much cold/dry stress. Winter was a bit extended. We'll try some red lights. We have wild fires now too. It's hurting all life at the moment. Horrible light and smoke/particles
Im a bee keeper and wonder how it is the bees of all things dont get enough sunlight. Is it the larval stage that is improved? If so could hives have a material in the sunny side of the brood box that alows infer red light in ?
If you say you are unsure of use on cancer. Can you tell me what happens with red light on the face with skin cancers like bcc etc? Also if using red light on the body what happens to cancer you don’t know you have?
Hi Richard, one thing that Dr. Jeffrey wasn’t clear about was whether it had to be red light in his experiments or could you just substitute sunshine E g.in the glucose tolerance test? Could the subjects just go outside for three minutes?10 minutes? and then take the glucose tolerance test and expect the same improvements?
Do crowd funding, people will send money to help you tubers achieve their life goals, we would all love to donate to somebody that will help for generations. Crowdfunding is a huge way to achieve this goal.
I was advised by my ophthalmologist that the light box (game changer by Mid West) would damage my eyes and to wear the light blocking goggles that was included with the device. I wonder how much he really knows about it though. What are your thoughts? Thanks
I don't know - looking at the late day Sun the other day just for a few seconds essentially blinded me for a minute or so - I really find this spectrum stuff interesting but I need to study it more completely - good luck
I’m sorry. That was hilarious. “We take the flies, take their brains, grind them up and …”. Little morbid but I laughed my ass off. Great information. Thanks for sharing.
So, it may be a good idea to combine red light with Niacin for keto dieters since Niacin releases glucose into the bloodstream. Also with ACV to dampen the glucose even more.
He said towards the end of the interview to just go out in the woods for a walk to lower blood sugar. But he also said at the beginning [21:21] that he cycles to work and after he gets to the office he uses a red light for a few minutes at least 3 times a week. I would have thought the bike ride would provide enough exposure. I know going outside in the sun helps me with chronic pain almost immediately (probably caused by small fiber neuropathy, not diagnosed) & it doesn't matter if I go out in the morning or afternoon - but that could be an effect of green light, which releases endogenous opioids .
Confused…did he say do or do not use red light at night? Several times he refers to a ‘device’. Can’t we just use an incandescent red light bulb? Or is some special ‘device’ required?? Thanks SO much!
I have a platinum therapy 450 bio light, LUV IT, and on their site it says the visible infrared red light can be used before bed, BUT that the not visible nir infrared light should NOT be used before bed because it goes deeper in the body and does stimulate mitochondria which in-turn produces energy.🎯I learned this only after i used both spectrums of the light before i went to bed and could NOT SLEEP…😬☹️ after learning this > next night i only used the visible infrared red light for 15 mins before bed and slept much better..👍🏻😊
@@shawnahubble1220 thanks Shawna! I’m obviously clueless on this subject…should I assume that the 250w incandescent red bulb I have is the ‘visible’ (very😳) NIR?
@@QueSeraSera-f3s yes (if you can see it it is visible) the wavelength red light starts to become invisible is 700 nm (nanometres) 'NIR' (near infrared) is towards 750 nanometres so if you can see your red light it is 'red light' but not NIR (near infrared)
I've no health problems and I'm 76years old .Is it safe to use red light and blue light and near infrared light 20.minutes a session 5 days a week ? Great talk !
Doctor Glen. Have people or patients by handheld life pro devices or a similar brand and start to organize citizen scientist to participate globally in the projects that may be an easier way to reduce costs and cover more research grounds. Keeps up the great work
Hi thanks. I had a look at the history (on Wikipedia) and why it ended up with that name. Which mostly seems to be because it was the first part of London University founded, then was incorporated into the larger London Uni as University College, London (which makes some sense). It is now independent again and it seems that the name is UCL so I may be incorrect in spelling it out.
Hi thanks! I thought that part was very interesting and was news to me too. I guess it is separating out using light as a sleep aid (red light in the evening) and to help the metabolism (red light in the morning.)
Why would you withhold red light therapy from cancer patients? Cancer thrives on glucose and if red light lowers glucose it should be included in treatment protocols. Andrew Huberman uses a red light bulb. I have some on order. 👍🥳🤗
If there's no red in LED light then how are they putting out white light? My smart bulbs that are RGB only hit full brightness by ramping up all three colors to max.
On sunlight discussion, it seems that a certain amount of natural light might be an easier/simpler way to get a good dose of broad spectrum infrared just by sitting or walking in the shade or standing with back to direct sunlight. Early morning or late afternoon may be good too. Many of us likely already get a good dose of infrared due to outside activities.
SUNLIGHT IS SO GOOD FOR YOU>IF you can get sunlight! 🎯They are blocking out the skies so much with white line chemtrails they are spraying that I rarely get sunshine anymore in northern Michigan, always have cloudy white hazy skies.😞😩😡
@@lrduff there's more (pre) light at (just after Dawn) than there is at Dusk! demographics may play part & season. Caught a pisty-dawn end-to-end full spectrum rainbow that supercharged my being, downloaded all the spectrums!
yes, 3 minutes in the morning a minimum of once a week, with these glasses just put them on, turn them on, will automatically turn off after 3 minutes, eyes open or closed
Hi Susy, thanks for you question. According Dr Jeffery the power is not that important and as long as the wavelength is right (from 650 to 900 nm I think is what he said, because over 900 is mostly absorbed by water). It would also depend on the purpose. One note I should add is that Dr Jeffery's studies mostly focus on mitochondria, for metabolism and macular degeneration. Red light is also used to lower inflammation among other things, which we did not discuss much.
Very interesting. The link between bees (which I’ve just started keeping) pesticides and mitochondrial function is new to me and would seem to explain why kids with mitochondrial disease (and ASD I presume) benefit from red light. Links to RK Naviaux Cell danger response model of disease

I have relapsed into my CFS and have extremely low energy, Red light can be a great tool to help. Also Dr Sarah Myhill in the UK is on the leading edge of helping CFS sufferers. Keto diet, vit c and Iodine are the base therapies in which she adds more depth.
How will this work on beginning stages EPI macular pucker and foggy floaters? Can the eyes stay open in front of some panels?
I’m a breast cancer survivor but still need to continue hormonal treatment called “Aromasin” which results in incredible muscle inflammation and joint aches. Hence I was hoping an infrared PEMF mat would be such a helpful product. But now Dr Glenn mentioned that red light therapy is not advisable for cancer patients? Wouldn’t it be beneficial to my mitochondria then?
He emphasized that he was guessing, based on his observation that red lite causes bacteria to grow faster. I came across a study that conclude it does not make cancer worse.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3423866/
I think it might actually help because it causes the good cells to become healthier. A stronger immune system can kill cancer cells more effectively.
Husband and I been using red lite for maybe 5 yrs at 70. Our cats love it and we know it helps them and their aging also. Thanks for info on eyes especially been wondering if helps and how etc. Great info thanks so much. I take a magnesium that includes all three myself. Have been taking many years. Husband takes one regular one.
So red light therapy is most effective in the morning, but one usually has the largest meal at dinner time which is in the evening so if you’re trying to minimize the glucose spike, should you use the red light therapy in the morning before in the evening?
Cancer cells have defective mitochondria.
I close my eyes while facing the morning sun and see the red light filter through my lids in seconds.
Hi Betty, thanks for sharing, that is a good point and indeed shows that light does penetrate the body.
@@ModernHealthspan
I didn't understand why he was talking about using red light after he had bicycled to work.
Surely he's just been bathed in massive amounts of red light from the Sun.
@@mballer it was cloudy. ;-)
That’s correct - green foliage amplifies infrared light. There’s a great video by Friendly Pharmacy 5 featuring Dr Roger Seheult explaining how that works and the biological effects and benefits. All the best
I don't believe I heard him say that when he rides his bicycle it's daylight @@mballer
Amazing Dr. Jeffery. I am already using the red light for my AMD. Keep up the good work!
Hi Yvonne, thanks for sharing. I hope that red light is working for you!
Brilliant! Thank you for a well-rounded interview. You brought cutting-edge research to practical application.
From the 59:58 min to the 1:01:45 min mark it sounds like a Red Light Therapy session from a device is beneficial at night to help with sleep but that same night session won't help the body makie very much ATP to be used for later? Is this correct? I would like to give my body permission to make ATP anytime and store the rest till needed. Like dividends.
Surprising info on dosing! He uses MUCH lower than the other resources I have seen.... interesting.
Was the vision improvement in elderly done with eyes open or closed?
I have heard and it makes sense to me that the only possible problem would be if people take medicines and are warned to stay out of the sun - that would be something to be cautious of. I have several devices but my Hooga $40 plus shipping handheld floodlight type device is still my favorite. It is too bright for my eyes and not easy to use on my back so I bought a wrap. I love my red light/infrared - helps aches and pains, eases my bone on bone basal thumb arthritis night pain, healed a abscess on my dog - best device ever. It is my favorite gift to give.
Where do you buy yours from??
Hi Sonja, sounds great. Thanks for sharing.
Why stay out of sun after redlight
@@Nando_lifts2021 I was tryjng to say that if you take medicine and are told to avoid the sun then you should also avoid red light/infrared as it has some of the same wavelengths as sunlight. I know some medicines will cause people to blister or have hives if they get out in direct sunlight.
To increase the mitochondria in your body, does your Whole body need to be in front of the light or is it just as beneficial to have it shine on you hand or use it to improve your eye site?
Thanks, Richard. Fantastic interview with a heavy-hitter in the space. I’d like to know, though, does he recommend pulsed red light or a continuous beam when using red light lamps?
Can the 670nm red light eye device that Doctor Jeffery helped developed help with astigmatism?
It's interesting that when my blood sugars go high my astigmatism gets worse.
no, Professor Jeffery said 'no, it will not have any impact on astigmatism, which is about the shape of the eye' (hope that helps)
What is the effect of red light to Autophagy? Effect on AMPK?
I am listening to this podcast lying in front of red and near infra red light panels like sauna
Hi thanks. Sounds wonderful!
Me too 😂🥰
All the red light devices I’ve seen are made with LEDs. Given that the doctor’s statement about LED lightbulbs needs to be clarified…is it just household lighting that’s bad? Are ALL LEDs?
I do it everyday 2 times per day 20 min es time. It’s great I have CKD and it’s helped me so much with my energy and muscle pain
Are you on dialysis by any chance. Hope you're well. 🙏
I use incandescent infrared phillips bulbs and feel great. Cheap as.
couldn't find on amazon? link?
They are banned in USA
@@galfromphilly Odd - logic or reasoning ? it is getting a little tiresome to have things 'banned' from adults - makes me suspicious as to the 'why'
Great talk, very informative and enjoyable.
May I ask if wavelength from 800-1000nm works for healthier mitochondria and more ATP generation? I have a Phillips Infrared heat lamp at home. It generates a lot of heat. Thanks
Hello Richard, I love your channel
I thought this was a really great interview
It seems like it has different applications
I have several lights from EMR TEK
Am I correct in understanding or concluding that he feels that just two minutes a day perhaps twice a week would be sufficient to get full reward from such.
Do you have the impression that getting red light on all parts of the body is relevant?
On one hand, he made it sound quite minimalist like any amount would just turn on a switch
But realistically speaking, to me it would seem best to hit the full body for 10 to 20 minutes , thrice a week would be ideal.
And his sharing about the children suffering from mitochondrial disfunction having dramatically improved results and improved function of body, seems like an exceptionally beautiful and touching story. 🙏🏼🦋💜
Keep up the great work, Richard
The latest I’ve heard about red light is that it powers up the brain and prevents Alzheimer’s disease
I use red light and it did help with a cold i had..i basically got it for my mitochondria since i had cancer..i thought you had to wear safety glasses though ..
So interesting, thank you.
Would you discuss the processes in metabolism when mitochondria are “fed” fats instead of sugars as is the case in carnivor animals and humans (e.g., the work of DRs Med Ken Berry, Shawn Baker, prof Thomas Seyfried…) who find that carnivor (fats with meats) metabolism is cca twice as energy efficient as glucose metabolism and with much lower resulting inflammatory reactions. Would be so interesting to extend your research into the interplay of red light and fat metabolism of mitochondria.
Those are great Dr's, I also like Dr Ben Lynch, Dr Peter Osborne, Morley Robbins, Dr Eric Berg and many others.
Does the orange light from a salt lamp work? Or does It need to be more red?
Loved this episode, what a fantastic guy. So much fascinating information in a single interview, I may have to watch it again!
I'm old. I've been using Red Light and NIR 3-4 times a week for about 2 years. I believe it helps my everyday health, BUT I can't feel any improvement in my energy level or general health.
Glycine and taurine help feed mitochondrial function
@surferscollective613 yes. I take both plus NAC.
@@bill9989 are you standing close enough
Pre - Dawn near infrared lite & after sunset to, yet pre Dawn is a longer length of time to absorb. Free
True they are good for you but they don't contain therapeutic levels unfortunately
Fantastic interview. Thank you for all the information. Good luck for future funding- so important.
Hi Bernadette, thanks!
Fantastic show. I got my red light panel a month ago and I am experiencing a lot of positive benefits. One of the best things I've done for my health. Now I know I will use these for the rest of my life
Great to hear, and thanks for sharing!
at 00:33:00 Glen seems to wonder the big question...WHY no trials? Physical interventions around this issue make people become permanentally no customers to the patent chemistry industry. These aged career researchers have no broad understanding of the level of greed and corruption around them. Anything selling product will in the end become corrupt. Even the niche good ones are bought to non existence by the industry gov axis.
Why else would the bureaucrate scaremonger against sun exposure and cholesteron increase. Doing the opposite kills only metabolic stress in the mitochondria.
Commercialism requires Scarcity - I guess it forces us to be very careful what information to trust - the 'system' wants us sick and in debt - so sad but true - good luck
Just a comment: Studies are beginning to demonstrate an effect of red light on blood sugar, etc., but you are overlooking the elephant in the room if you do not consider diet to be the primary causal factor in metabolic diseases. Red light provides a nice support for a healthy life style, but to think it is the main factor is not going to produce the dramatic effects that most people need.
Definitely.. diet is a key part of a healthy lifestyle
If red light therapy makes me feel more tired in the morning, does that mean I used it for too long?
I've seen papers reporting a biphasic dose response for transcranial LLLT, so I have wondered about overdosing. Red light also increases NO production, which is good to a point, but could result in higher peroxynitrite production.
Great interview and information. About Blue Light Blocking glasses- I wear them religiously at home and wearing them should be strongly considered after sundown(or yellow lenses if out and about at night). Ancestrally, our species drew down after sundown and people should not be getting Blue Light. It increases blood sugar, cortisol and lowers Melatonin. . People should use red filters on their computer screens and phones as well after sundown. Blue light after sundown is very deleterious. It signals our brains that it is still daytime and we need energy vs getting ready for sleep. Some feel that Nikolas Tesla's invention of night light was our species Dinosaur meteorite moment.
I just expose my feet and lower body swelling and redness on dorsum of left foot cleared . This swelling because of jogging 4 miles Yesterday .650-850nanometet .No we can not share them because delicate and if dropped finished . So now learned the less . I used red light since7 years for all pain any where any body .
brilliant interview. Would have loved a question and answer on CFS.
For the bee's too. My wife loves you. She's an alley based small hive keeper. They died this paste early spring. Too much cold/dry stress. Winter was a bit extended. We'll try some red lights. We have wild fires now too. It's hurting all life at the moment. Horrible light and smoke/particles
Im a bee keeper and wonder how it is the bees of all things dont get enough sunlight. Is it the larval stage that is improved?
If so could hives have a material in the sunny side of the brood box that alows infer red light in ?
Still have yet to find a magnesium supplement without magnesium stearate. Stearic acid causes endothelial dysfunction. It's in everything.
What about upgraded formulas?
Isn’t it such a tiny amount? Worrying about it likely causes greater dysfunction.
IHerb has pure Magnesiumbisglycinat Powder from Thorne without stearic acid or anything else additional
Pure Encapsulations brand does Not have any mag stearate in their mag products.
@@carolhemingway2793 yeah same with thorne, both are the same company and double the price.
If you say you are unsure of use on cancer. Can you tell me what happens with red light on the face with skin cancers like bcc etc?
Also if using red light on the body what happens to cancer you don’t know you have?
Hi Richard, one thing that Dr. Jeffrey wasn’t clear about was whether it had to be red light in his experiments or could you just substitute sunshine E g.in the glucose tolerance test? Could the subjects just go outside for three minutes?10 minutes? and then take the glucose tolerance test and expect the same improvements?
Does infrared radiation from burning fire embers provide the right wavelength?
Do crowd funding, people will send money to help you tubers achieve their life goals, we would all love to donate to somebody that will help for generations. Crowdfunding is a huge way to achieve this goal.
I was advised by my ophthalmologist that the light box (game changer by Mid West) would damage my eyes and to wear the light blocking goggles that was included with the device. I wonder how much he really knows about it though. What are your thoughts? Thanks
he simply wants to keep you his patient for LIFE..🎯
Or maybe it depends on the frequency or wavelength your eyes will be exposed to.
I don't know - looking at the late day Sun the other day just for a few seconds essentially blinded me for a minute or so - I really find this spectrum stuff interesting but I need to study it more completely - good luck
I’ve experienced many lectures on the benefits of red light therapy.
This specific lecture is without a doubt, the most informative.
Thank you.
So good interview. Learned a lot. Thanks a lot you both.
I’m sorry. That was hilarious. “We take the flies, take their brains, grind them up and …”. Little morbid but I laughed my ass off.
Great information. Thanks for sharing.
So, it may be a good idea to combine red light with Niacin for keto dieters since Niacin releases glucose into the bloodstream. Also with ACV to dampen the glucose even more.
Hi thanks for sharing.
Coffee is high in niacin
The extra ATP is utilized as energy to produce sweating
Can you just go out in the sun? Is that enough? I live in Queensland, Australia- we have plenty of sunlight
He said towards the end of the interview to just go out in the woods for a walk to lower blood sugar. But he also said at the beginning [21:21] that he cycles to work and after he gets to the office he uses a red light for a few minutes at least 3 times a week. I would have thought the bike ride would provide enough exposure. I know going outside in the sun helps me with chronic pain almost immediately (probably caused by small fiber neuropathy, not diagnosed) & it doesn't matter if I go out in the morning or afternoon - but that could be an effect of green light, which releases endogenous opioids .
Confused…did he say do or do not use red light at night? Several times he refers to a ‘device’.
Can’t we just use an incandescent red light bulb? Or is some special ‘device’ required?? Thanks SO much!
I have a platinum therapy 450 bio light, LUV IT, and on their site it says the visible infrared red light can be used before bed, BUT that the not visible nir infrared light should NOT be used before bed because it goes deeper in the body and does stimulate mitochondria which in-turn produces energy.🎯I learned this only after i used both spectrums of the light before i went to bed and could NOT SLEEP…😬☹️ after learning this > next night i only used the visible infrared red light for 15 mins before bed and slept much better..👍🏻😊
@@shawnahubble1220 thanks Shawna! I’m obviously clueless on this subject…should I assume that the 250w incandescent red bulb I have is the ‘visible’ (very😳) NIR?
@@QueSeraSera-f3s yes (if you can see it it is visible) the wavelength red light starts to become invisible is 700 nm (nanometres) 'NIR' (near infrared) is towards 750 nanometres so if you can see your red light it is 'red light' but not NIR (near infrared)
I've no health problems and I'm 76years old .Is it safe to use red light and blue light and near infrared light 20.minutes a session 5 days a week ? Great talk !
Hope there will be a research on infrared and near infrared on effects with reduction of soft plaque and hard plaque using CT andiogram sa test.
Any research on effects of infrared lights and near infrared lights to Retinopathy?
Doctor Glen. Have people or patients by handheld life pro devices or a similar brand and start to organize citizen scientist to participate globally in the projects that may be an easier way to reduce costs and cover more research grounds. Keeps up the great work
Did you people really name a school "University College"? Seriously! 😮
Hi thanks. I had a look at the history (on Wikipedia) and why it ended up with that name. Which mostly seems to be because it was the first part of London University founded, then was incorporated into the larger London Uni as University College, London (which makes some sense). It is now independent again and it seems that the name is UCL so I may be incorrect in spelling it out.
Bad name perhaps but obviously a great institution. 👍
Look up Alex Fergus. He has reviewed hundred of red lights. Well worth getting his newsletter as well
Hi Cheryl, thanks for sharing!
Yep. I bought a Biomax and Mito per his recs
Why doesn't SOMEONE ASK ABOUT WATTAGE OF POWER SOURCE, PULSED OR CW, AND WHAT POWER GIVES 5MW/CM2 ,
Thanks Richard good advice on time of day benefits etc 👍😎
Hi thanks! I thought that part was very interesting and was news to me too. I guess it is separating out using light as a sleep aid (red light in the evening) and to help the metabolism (red light in the morning.)
Why would you withhold red light therapy from cancer patients? Cancer thrives on glucose and if red light lowers glucose it should be included in treatment protocols.
Andrew Huberman uses a red light bulb. I have some on order. 👍🥳🤗
If there's no red in LED light then how are they putting out white light? My smart bulbs that are RGB only hit full brightness by ramping up all three colors to max.
Perhaps blocking the blue in the eyes may exceed benefits and become nullified???
many red light therapy cap 🧢 out there in China not sure if those works
I watch the sunrise every morning that it’s visible. I also have a red light wand but now I’m not sure what time of day to use it.
Some good doctors are advocating using RLT for patients with cancer. What have they got to lose?
On sunlight discussion, it seems that a certain amount of natural light might be an easier/simpler way to get a good dose of broad spectrum infrared just by sitting or walking in the shade or standing with back to direct sunlight. Early morning or late afternoon may be good too. Many of us likely already get a good dose of infrared due to outside activities.
Pre-dawn hours and right after sunset, although after Sunset is it shorter time allowance for.
SUNLIGHT IS SO GOOD FOR YOU>IF you can get sunlight! 🎯They are blocking out the skies so much with white line chemtrails they are spraying that I rarely get sunshine anymore in northern Michigan, always have cloudy white hazy skies.😞😩😡
@@stevierusso529 Are you sure about that? There's very little light pre dawn, and after sunset. I've read/heard that post dawn, early morn is good.
@@lrduff there's more (pre) light at (just after Dawn) than there is at Dusk! demographics may play part & season. Caught a pisty-dawn end-to-end full spectrum rainbow that supercharged my being, downloaded all the spectrums!
@@shawnahubble1220chemtrails like they're spraying poison, huh?
Infra red light is in the pic and rightfully so BUT blue light is a healer as well
Great info! What do you mean by those 3 minutes of exposure? 650 nm and looking into it or how?
yes, 3 minutes in the morning a minimum of once a week, with these glasses just put them on, turn them on, will automatically turn off after 3 minutes, eyes open or closed
What about shift workers? Red light in the morning waking me up? I need to sleep during the day
What kind of light ?
Brand ?
Powder ?
They are many in the market, these light are really good?
Most interesting, Thank you
Great interview and information. Does doctor Jeffery has a recommendation for a specific red light product?
Hi Lars, thanks for your question. Dr Jeffery said that he does not recommend any particular device.
Alex Fergus does reviews of red light devices. He's on UA-cam and has a website.
@@C2C. Alex is the best.
How do we know what red-light panels to buy?
Hi Susy, thanks for you question. According Dr Jeffery the power is not that important and as long as the wavelength is right (from 650 to 900 nm I think is what he said, because over 900 is mostly absorbed by water). It would also depend on the purpose. One note I should add is that Dr Jeffery's studies mostly focus on mitochondria, for metabolism and macular degeneration. Red light is also used to lower inflammation among other things, which we did not discuss much.
Alex Fergus does reviews of red light devices. He's on UA-cam and has a website.
Does this mean exposing yourself to first sunlight be the same as using a red light device? If so, how long. Perhaps the same 3 minutes?
I have multi sclerosis. I would like to ask if red light heip my stiffness
Fabulous fabulous human,so refreshing to see.
Question: do you need red light or is a few minutes of direct sun light each day also ok?
Want to see effects of red lights on Diabetes in synergy with zero carbohydrates? Keto diet, etc?
what's a 670nm light in simple terms? Does it translate into approx. wattage or something?
Very interesting. The link between bees (which I’ve just started keeping) pesticides and mitochondrial function is new to me and would seem to explain why kids with mitochondrial disease (and ASD I presume) benefit from red light. Links to RK Naviaux Cell danger response model of disease
We should use candlelight at night again.... Campfires.
