The Red Light Report

Eye Health & Gut Health w/ Red Light Therapy

This week on The Red Light Report, I will cover two of the most popular topics as it relates to red light therapy: eye health and gut health. There is an abundance of information and research in these two areas — from being able to mitigate, prevent and even reverse eye pathologies to improving the diversity and balance of your beneficial bacteria to harmful bacteria in your gut. Let's shed some light on these two areas of health and wellness!


On the previous solosode, we covered the following topics in the eBook: Brain & Cognitive Health and Cancer.

  Eye health & gut health are undoubtedly two topics I consistently get a ton of questions about and, not coincidentally, these are two sections in the eBook with some of the most new information added to them (Gut Health is actually a brand new section in the eBook and on the BioLight website).

Personally, I treat my gut and eyes with red light therapy at least once a week as prophylactic treatments. Time will tell how beneficial those treatments are!


Again, even thought there's only two topics covered this week, I think this is information anyone and everyone can benefit from. As always, light up your health!
