Impact of Red Light Therapy on Thyroid Health

Red light therapy has shown notable effects on thyroid health, particularly for individuals with Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism. Studies indicate that between 30% and 50% of participants could reduce or completely stop their thyroid hormone medication after undergoing this therapy. Specifically, results from clinical trials demonstrate substantial decreases in thyroid antibodies and significant increases in hormone levels. This suggests that red light therapy could potentially enhance the body's ability to manage autoimmune conditions and support thyroid function over time.
