Have you ever seen me wearing a crazy, laser-light helmet on my head, with red-flashing nasal probes shoved into my nostrils, and thought...
..."What the heck is that, and why would someone ever choose such a horrific fashion statement?"
But stick with me here because there's actually something to the science of this so-called use of "photobiomodulation." A lot of something and a lot of science.
The basis of all your thoughts, behavior, and emotions is the communication between your neuronal networks. This interaction leads to the formation of neural electrical signals known as brainwaves. Brain stimulation via photobiomodulation stimulates neuronal mitochondria, which increases cellular energy levels. This results in improved efficiency in neural signaling and communication.
The "helmet" red light technology I wear - which I don three to four times per week for 25 minutes - is the first in the world to demonstrate the ability to modulate and alter brainwaves using NIR electromagnetic (light) energy, measured through EEG. Delivering pulsed near-infrared (NIR) light energy into the brain’s Default Mode Network (DMN) upgrades brain capability, increases longevity, and improves physiological health. Microchip-boosted cold LED diodes in this setup - made by a company called "Vielight" (use code GREENFIELD to save 10%) - can safely maximize energy transmission into the brain, and intranasal photobiomodulation technology is used for ventral brain stimulation. Transcranial-intranasal systems like this enable comprehensive, non-invasive, and safe brain photobiomodulation. Visit https://bengreenfieldfitness.com/vielight for more info.
