Recently, photobiomodulation, the application of red to
infrared light on body tissues has been reported to alter the course of aged decline*.
This quote comes from a very recently published article Does Photobiomodulation influence ageing?
Mitochondria again – the batteries in our cells. As we age, our mitochondria get weary and don’t want to work as hard as they used to, so our cells get slower and crankier.
When it comes to brain cells, sludgy and cranky cells make for sludgy and cranky brain activity. Put a red light rocket up the mitochondria and they rapidly get to work.
The red light rockets are needed daily, because the mitochondria are only too happy to revert to sloth.
