In this week's episode of The Red Light Report, we travel "across the pond" to Sweden! I had the chance to sit down and converse with Fredrik Paulún, a fellow red light therapy enthusiast and someone that has been building health and wellness businesses for decades.

One of Sweden’s leading nutritionists since the middle of the ’90s, Fredrik is also a leading health entrepreneur.

Matrix: BioLight’s New Innovative Full-Body Red Light Therapy Mat
There are two major issues I hear time and again, regarding full-body red light therapy treatments: 1.) having to set aside time to do the treatments and 2.) having to stand in front of the panel. This week on The Red Light Report, you are going to learn about an innovative red light therapy product from BioLight that resolves these two issues and also provides many other attributes that will make red light therapy easier and more relaxing to do than ever before!
In short, the product is the Matrix, which is a full-body red light therapy mat. The Matrix is a ground-breaking, revolutionary red light therapy product, utilizing BioLight's newest patent-pending technology that allows for flexible Dual LEDs, making this mat the most versatile red light therapy product on the market: you can lay on it, sit on it, hang it on the wall, roll it up and take it with you everywhere!
Ever since its release release for pre-order, I have been flooded with various questions about the Matrix and how it compares to panels, how you would use the mat most effectively, whether or not its as effective as panels and more. I will cover all of these questions and more.
My hope is that this episode brings more clarity about the Matrix and gets you more excited about this new, innovative red light therapy technology! If you have further questions about the Matrix, please do not hesitate to reach out via email or social media — I am always happy to assist you.

Optimizing Anti-Aging & Longevity via Supplements & Adjuvants w/ Sandra Kaufmann, MD
The author of one of my all-time favorite books recently released her second book, which was like Christmas coming early for me! Luckily, I had also met her before at an anti-aging conference and we have stayed in touch throughout the years. So I knew I had to Dr. Sandra Kaufmann on The Red Light Report for some amazing conversation about anti-aging and longevity strategies, especially as it relates to supplements and adjuvants — topics that she is considered a bonafide expert. In her newest book, Aging Solutions, Dr. Kaufmann covers 28 different agents that she has found to be the most efficacious and backed by science, according to her rigorous research. We cover many agents from both of her books along with Dr. Kaufmann's skincare routine and other longevity hacks she as implemented over the years, including red light therapy!Dr. Sandra Kaufmann began her academic career in the field of cellular biology, earning a Master’s Degree from the University of Connecticut in Tropical Ecology and Plant Physiology. Turning to medicine, she received her medical Degree at the University of Maryland, and completed a residency and fellowship at Johns Hopkins in the field of pediatric anesthesiology. She has been the Chief of Pediatric Anesthesia at the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital for 9 years, a nationally recognized center of excellence.Dr. Kaufmann's avid interest in the science of anti-aging begun many years ago as an intense hobby. Utilizing her knowledge in cell biology, human pharmacology and physiology, this hobby has now become a main focus. The project represents years of non-clinical research leading to the first ever, comprehensive theory of aging. She has now released two books on longevity: The Kaufmann Protocol: Why We Age and How to Stop it, and just recently in 2022, Aging Solutions.
This conversation could have easily gone on for hours and hours, as Dr. Kaufmann is a wealth of knowledge in some of my favorite topics and is fun to listen and learn from. I know you will all enjoy learning from her like I did and, if so, I highly recommend you check out BOTH of her books. They are simply amazing resources of anti-aging/longevity information. As always, light up your health!

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!
