Shining a Light on Brain Health with Liam Pingree: Key PBM Researchers
Welcome to an episode where we explore the cutting-edge world of photobiomodulation (PBM) and its potential to transform the landscape of neurodegenerative disease treatment. This episode features an in-depth interview with Liam Pingree, CEO of Neuronic, we dive into the science behind PBM and the innovative Neuradiant 1070 device. Building on our discussion from last year, we’ll uncover how this non-invasive therapy leverages red and near-infrared light to enhance brain health, with a focus on conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Photobiomodulation, often called low-level laser or red light therapy, is gaining traction as a promising approach to tackle the mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation that drive neurodegenerative diseases. Today, we’ll hear from Liam about how the Neuradiant 1070, with its unique 1070 nm wavelength, aims to penetrate deeper into the brain, offering hope for symptom relief and possibly slowing disease progression. We’ll also spotlight the contributions of key researchers, including Professor Paul Chazot, whose work on neuroinflammation ties into this field, alongside pioneers like Michael R. Hamblin driving PBM research forward. Join us as we break down the device’s features, clinical applications, and real-world user experiences, all while peering into the future of PBM as a potential standard in brain health care. Whether you’re a science enthusiast, a caregiver, or someone curious about innovative therapies, this episode offers a compelling look at how light might just shine a new path forward for neurodegenerative challenges. Let’s dive in! What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The Science of Photobiomodulation (PBM): Understand how PBM uses red and near-infrared light to boost mitochondrial function, reduce inflammation, and promote neurogenesis, with insights into its relevance for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The Neuradiant 1070 Device: Explore the specifics of this home-use PBM device, including the significance of its 1070 nm wavelength for brain penetration and its quadrant control system for targeted treatment. Key Research Contributions: Learn about the work of leading researchers like Michael R. Hamblin, John Mitrofanis, and Paul Chazot, whose studies on PBM and neuroinflammation are shaping the field. Clinical Applications and Future Vision: Discover how the Neuradiant 1070 is being used for neurodegenerative conditions, supported by emerging clinical trials, and hear Liam Pingree’s vision for PBM’s role in prevention and treatment by 2027. 🧠 Shop Neuronic Devices Now Use code "Tamati100' to receive $100 USD off your Neuronic device 🎯 Personalised Health Optimisation Consulting with Lisa Tamati Lisa offers solution focused coaching sessions to help you find the right answers to your challenges. 📌 Topics Lisa can help with: Lisa is a Genetics Practitioner, Health Optimisation Coach, High Performance and Mindset Coach.

Beat Immune Ageing & Chronic Inflammation – Dr. Elizabeth Yurth Reveals the Secret to Staying Young
Welcome back to the second part of the Aevum Labs Series on Immune Health! In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, founder of the Boulder Longevity Institute, to explore the fascinating world of immunosenescence—the ageing of the immune system—and its connection to inflammaging, chronic inflammation that accelerates aging. Dr. Yurth explains how the decline of our immune system not only affects our resilience to infections but also plays a pivotal role in the development of chronic diseases, neurodegeneration, and overall cellular decline. We dive into how gut health, immune health, and cellular health are deeply interconnected, with 70–80% of our immune system residing in and around the gut. Learn how chronic systemic inflammation and gut permeability can break down your immune defenses and how you can turn back the clock on immune ageing. We also introduce our exciting new product developed in conjunction with Dr Yurth as a scientific advisor, from Aevum Labs—Rejuvenate—which is specifically designed to target immune decline, support cellular health, and reduce chronic inflammation. Dr. Yurth explains how the ingredients in Rejuvenate help restore immune vitality, protect brain health, and improve gut barrier integrity. Key Topics Discussed: What is immunosenescence? Understanding how and why our immune system declines with age. The link between chronic systemic inflammation (inflammaging) and ageing—why targeting inflammation is essential for longevity. The gut-immune connection: Why 70–80% of your immune system resides in the gut and how gut health affects brain health and systemic inflammation. Practical strategies to combat immune aging, from diet and lifestyle interventions to cutting-edge supplements. 🧬✨The Role of Rejuvenate in Fighting Immunosenescence and Inflammaging 💡Shop Now: Re:juvenate Pro by Aevum Labs 💡Find Out More: Aevum Labs Website | Aevum Labs Instagram Rejuvenate, the flagship product from Aevum Labs, is formulated to help slow the decline of the immune system by addressing chronic inflammation, improving gut barrier health, and supporting cellular repair. 🌱 Key Ingredients and Their Benefits: Immune Defense Protein (IDP) – Produced by Quantec, this innovative bioactive protein has powerful immune-modulating properties.
