Brain & Cognitive Health, Parkinson’s & Gut Health, & Cancer via Photobiomodulation

This week on The Red Light Report, we will continue navigating through the fourth edition of the Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocols eBook that I released last week. The eBook almost doubled in size relative to the third edition, as I added a copious amount of information, research and protocols to this fourth edition.   On the previous solosode, we covered the following topics: Important Concepts; Anxiety, Depression & Stress; Athletic & Exercise Performance; and Bone & Joint Health. In this solosode, we will be covering two BIG topics: Brain & Cognitive Health and Cancer. This may be an episode you will want to share with someone you know that is going through one of these health conditions. The information outlined is invaluable. Even thought there's only two topics this week, I promise there is ample amount of juicy information to listen to and learn. As always, light up your health! - Dr. Mike Belkowski Discusses the following: Brain & cognitive health Mitochondrial dysfunction and how it leads to cognitive issues Ways red light therapy can be used trans-cranially Autism Aging and how it isn’t fully understood Treating the cognitive deficits from aging with red light therapy Reversing the aging process in the brain Concussions and traumatic brain injuries Treating gut health Treating Parkinson’s disease Treating cancer - Check out the Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocols eBook, 4th Edition - Invest in BioLight:There is only a week left in our crowdfunding campaign on Republic!

Red Light Therapy Best Practices, Treating Anxiety/Depression/Stress, Muscle Recovery & Bone/Joint Health

On this solosode of The Red Light Report, we are going to commence digging into the fourth edition of the Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocols eBook. You heard correctly  — the FOURTH edition! I have gone ahead and added an abundance of new red light therapy information, research and protocols. I have even added new sections, such as Cancer, Gut Health and Stem Cells. In this solosode and subsequent solo episodes, I will be covering all of the new information that has been added to this updated edition of the eBook. For those not familiar with the contents of this eBook, it was developed to help people enhance their experience and results with red light therapy by providing specific protocols that will help tailor treatment sessions based on your health and wellness goals. The protocols in the eBook are based on a comprehensive review of the current scientific research and will significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your RLT treatment sessions. The information and protocols should quickly help you achieve the many health benefits of red light therapy instead of relying on the overly-generalized "20 - 30 minutes per day" guideline that has needed updating for some time now. As you can imagine, the treatment protocol for skin health is much different than the protocol for treating joint pain, which is different from the protocol to improve sleep, reduce anxiety, enhance athletic performance, etc. Regardless, we will be covering all of the new information in this newest version of the eBook. I think you will be as impressed as I am with the new photobiomodulation I was able to find in the research.  - Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses the following: An announcement of new BioLight products Important considerations of red light therapy Best practices  Mitochondria and how they work in “shifts” Timing red light therapy Treating multiple areas in the same day Treating infants, kids, & pets Pregnant women & red light therapy Anxiety, depression, & stress Improving brain function through trans-cranial photobiomodulation BioLight’s research study Improving muscle recovery Lasers vs LEDs for red light therapy Bone and joint health Research on bone and joint health - Check out the Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocols eBook, 4th Edition - Invest in BioLight:Our crowdfunding campaign on Republic is LIVE!

Corruption of Big Food, Big Pharma & Big Tech & How to Take Your Freedom Back w/ Dr. Leland Stillman

For the second week in a row on  The Red Light Report, I have a repeat guest! This week's guest, Dr. Leland Stillman, you may remember is an integrative medical doctor that has been quite verbose and outspoken regarding his opinion on mandated vaccinations and wearing of face masks. He is also very well-versed on how light and one's light environment can impact health for better or for worse.Very recently he released a book called, Dying to Be Free. Here is an excerpt from the overview of the book: "I believe that if anything threatens the health of the American people, it is the evil agenda of these technocrats, whether they are pushing mask-wearing, vaccination, water-fluoridation, or even things as innocuous as hand washing. As much as it may surprise you to hear this from a doctor, my reasons for concern are based on an abundance of evidence and experience, and are shared by doctors and scientists all over the world." Dr. Stillman graduated with a degree in Environmental Health from Connecticut College and earned his medical degree from the University of Virginia. He trained in Internal Medicine at Maine Medical Center. He has worked in over a dozen hospitals and clinics as a traveling doctor. He spent the early part of COVID-19 working in a rural hospital and later on went viral for speaking out against the lockdown and mandate measures. Most importantly, Dr. Stillman just released a book called “Dying to Be Free.”On the previous episode with Dr. Stillman, we discussed how he analyzes his patients’ light environments, how he offers suggestions to optimize them, how and why he suggests heliotherapy (therapy from the sun), how a dim environment can lead to premature aging and much more! You can check out that episode by clicking here. This is not an episode you want to skip over. In fact, it is one you will likely want to listen to a couple of times and share with your family and friends. Dr. Stillman connects many dots and drops endless truth bombs that massive corporations and the government would rather you not know. Listen with an open, critical mind and you will be sure to walk away with a newfound perspective for what it means to have true freedom. Learns lots and light up your health! - Dr. Mike Belkowski and Dr. Leland Stillman discuss the following: Transitioning out of Covid The catalyst for writing his book, Dying to Be Free Waking up to the power of the sun Benefits of getting more sun exposure in the middle of the day His focus on improving lifestyle habits Problems with the government and regulating health Allowing doctors to do what they need to do How healthcare professionals aren’t incentivized to cure our ailments Negative ramifications of big food, big pharma, and big tech Replacing light loss with red light therapy Understanding how the “game” is being played How community reduces mortality rate Health insurance and why it’s one of the greatest scams in history How the market is rigged Healthcare sharing ministry and how it’s a better alternative to health insurance Hospital bills and how you can haggle them down Suicide rates of male and female physicians vs the general populous How the government is funneling the population to maximize corporate profits Crypto and giving power back to the people Minimizing costs - Watch this episode on YouTube - Check out Dr. Stillman's new book, Dying to Be Free - Where to Learn More From & About Dr. Leland Stillman: Website: StillmanMD.com Substack: Leland Stillman, MD Instagram: @StillmanMD - Invest in BioLight:Our crowdfunding campaign on Republic is LIVE!

You may remember him as the guy that developed the Longevv anti-aging creams we sell at BioLight, but David Horinek is so much more. He has acquired an abundance of unique knowledge in so many areas, I had to pick his brain on another episode so we could all learn from him. He dives into countless topics, including health and wellness tactics, why you need to leave the big city and live a rural lifestyle, diet/nutrition tips, advice on financial and investing, why forest/nature bathing and hugging trees is important for health, why light and water are invaluable for vital health and so much more!   David is the founder and Chief Innovation officer at Hologenix that developed Celliant, a responsive infrared textile that transforms body heat into full-spectrum infrared energy and is clinically proven to increase local circulation and cellular oxygenation -- that means more energy, endurance, strength, stamina, comfort, quicker recovery, and better sleep. The world’s leading brands, such as Under Armour and Levi’s use Celliant, along with countless other textile companies -- from bedding to socks to underwear and more.David also co-developed a business to produce and distribute alkaline water: Designing a specific ratio of salt to water gives the water a higher pH (potential hydrogen) than tap water, which boosts hydration.   There is so much fascinating and practical information in this episode, you will surely want to listen to it a couple of times to absorb all of the great knowledge that David imparts. As always, light up your health and enjoy! - Dr. Mike Belkowski and David Horinek discuss the following: Some longevity moves he’s been doing for himself Infrared saunas and what he’s doing with them A testimonial about how red light therapy heals Common questions about the Longevv Revivv Creme Alternatives to sunscreen Astaxanthin and sun exposure How Mike’s chronic dry eyes ceased after taking astaxanthin Cissus and how he increased his bone density almost 20% A clothing that stimulates vitamin D production Bone density and how to increase it Building your immune system in the cold Forest therapy and the importance of being outdoors Utilizing the sun for your eyes Prisms in windows and its light therapy benefits Getting back to nature Teas he recommends Investing & Crypto Magenta light and its heart-healing properties Mike’s catalyst for getting into light therapy Vibrations and sound healing Hemp company recommendation: Hemp Black Increasing resonation Pendulums Ascension Miscellaneous habits to improve your wellbeing - Watch this episode on YouTube - David Horinek's recommendations:   Bed Sheets Comforter Pillow Pillow Cases Mattress Pad Men's Under Armour Shirt   The Celestine Prophecy, by James Redfield   Natural Action Bottle For Structuring Water   BioAstin Astaxanthin   Curaderm Natural Non-Invasive Medication for Skin Cancer book, by Dr. Bill Cham   For further information, go to lowimpact.technology   Celliant - Global Leader in Performance Textiles: https://celliant.com/ - Invest in BioLight:Our crowdfunding campaign on Republic is LIVE!

Bioactive Light, Our Light Environment & Simple Yet Impactful Biohacks

On this week's solosode of The Red Light Report, we are going to learn about light and its impact on health from a slightly different viewpoint. You man even consider it coming from a quantum perspective. But not to worry, there are many practical (and free!) takeaways that you can begin integrating into your daily routine as quickly as... now! (Cue: nasal breathing)   In the first part of the solosode, I will cover sunlight as a nutrient. This may seem blasé on the surface, but I will discuss in detail, the five bioactive forms of light and then make a legitimate argument that light nutrients are just as important, if not more important, than food nutrients. In the second part of the solosode, I will dive into the practical application side of things. A majority of these biohacks you will have likely heard of, yet you are in all likelihood not implementing them a consistent basis. I will go into detail about each of these "quantum hacks" and elucidate as to how and why it would be impactful for your mitochondrial health. The best part is that they are all simple and free to implement!   Enjoy the information and see what you notice just by implementing two or three of these simple hacks on a consistent basis. I am sure it will light up your health! - Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses the following: Sunlight as a nutrient The main bioactive spectra of light UV-B and how it creates free electrons UV-A Blue light Red light Infrared light - mid and far infrared vs near infrared Our light environment and how it’s as important as nutrition Fake food vs real food Small changes that can make a big impact Sunset, sunrise, and melatonin/cortisol levels Remineralizing water Nasal breathing vs mouth breathing Book recommendation: Breath - James Nester No food after sunset Screens, the light they emit, and their effects Blue light and how it increases addictiveness through dopamine Grounding in the earth and its anti-inflammatory effects Love and gratitude - Invest in BioLight:Our crowdfunding campaign on Republic is LIVE!
