The Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocol Ecosystem

Developing a red light therapy treatment protocol has never been so easy and individualized! My passion project for the last 6 - 10 months has been putting together an ecosystem that will allow anyone with any type of red light therapy device from any company to easily and accurately produce a protocol based on what they are trying to treat. At the end of the day, I believe that this tool will become ubiquitous amongst the red light therapy space  — from those using RLT on themselves all the way to physicians and medical facilities utilizing RLT for their patients.As it currently stands, people have been typically been provided with the archaic advice of, "Do red light therapy 20 - 30 minutes every day!" But what if one person has a higher-powered RLT panel or laser compared to someone that has a lower-powered RLT or handheld device? What if someone is utilizing RLT for anti-aging skin versus someone employing RLT for dementia or TBI? Let's not forget that every single person responds to a given treatment differently! So a blanketed statement of advice, such as the one above, never made sense to me.Thus, I set out to develop protocols that you have all seen in the first four editions of the eBook. But it hit me last year that while that was a great step in the right direction, it still handcuffed a lot of people because those protocols are essentially centered around a particular light irradiance. So I set out to create the ecosystem that is being released today that, again, allows a person with any type of RLT device to produce an effective, nuanced protocol based on what they are trying to treat. Listen to the episode to learn more details!​​​ If you found the information in today's episode particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.

Research: Methylene Blue For TBI, Brain Ischemia & Alzheimer's; Antioxidant Therapeutics Targeting the Mitochondria For TBI

The average brain weighs about three pounds (less than 2% of the average human weight), yet it accounts for about 20% of the body's total energy consumption. That inherently means the brain is extremely mitochondrial dense, as the mitochondria produce ~95% of all the energy in body. Ok, so all numbers aside, the brain is an immensely important organ from a health, energy and, thus, mitochondrial perspective. That means we need to have strategies in place for both acute trauma to the brain and for chronic conditions like neurodegeneration.In today's solosode, we will review two hot-off-the-press articles that happen to surround this very topic. The first article looks at the potential of methylene blue (MB) as a key substance that can effectively address three exceptionally varying brain conditions: traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), ischemia and Alzheimer's disease. At the end of the day, MB has a profound role to play in all of those ailments.The second article hones in on TBIs and antioxidant therapeutics that specifically target the mitochondria. Based on the abundant information provided in the article (albeit they did not include MB or C60 as an antioxidant strategy; I imagine there results would be even more staggering if they did!), it is quite clear that even in an acute injury, such as TBI, the mitochondria play an ever central role — in this case, both the damage from the physical trauma and also the healing and recovery process.​​Hint hint: we already know that red light therapy is becoming widely accepted as an effective modality for treating head traumas, such as concussions, TBIs, etc,. Now we have this new research looking at the impact of antioxidant therapeutics that target the mitochondria. Antioxidants donate electrons. Methylene blue and C60 are some of the best electron donors available as therapeutics. However, unlike most other antioxidants, both MB and C60 can actually get inside the mitochondria. The Mitochondrial Triad has a massive role to play here!​ If you found the information in today's episode particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.

A Methylene Blue (and Leucomethylene Blue) Conversation w/ Dr. Yoshi Rahm

As methylene blue becomes more and more popular, it becomes paramount to seek out and learn from trusted sources and experts in the area. Luckily, I was able to sit down and have a fireside chat with the highly-respected and sought out osteopathic family physician, Dr. Yoshi Rahm. What I appreciate about Dr. Yoshi is that he not only speaks about methylene blue from a high-level, didactic perspective, but he can offer invaluable insight and wisdom since he utilizes IV methylene blue with his patients in his clinic. What Dr. Yoshi really drives home about methylene blue is really just how safe it is, even at doses much higher than you would expect!Thanks to our mutual connection of Dr. Katie Carter, whom plays host in this episode and suggested that Dr. Yoshi and I meet and discuss all things methylene blue, we have an engaging and spirited discussion about methylene blue and also leucomethylene blue, which Dr. Yoshi was less familiar with due to their being a lack of available product on the market (until BioBlue Leuco!). We also cover other topics, such as the new RLT treatment protocol ecosystem I am about to release and why I believe it will become a ubiquitous tool and resource for anyone and everyone that utilizes red light therapy. My hope is that you come away from this conversation with more excitement, belief and/or trust in methylene blue after listening and learning from Dr. Yoshi. He is a wealth of knowledge and I have no doubt we will be having more of these conversations on the podcast in the future.I hope you enjoy the conversation today with Dr. Yoshi Rahm.

The Mitochondrial Triad & Killing a Virus in 48 Hours w/ Methylene Blue

There seems to be another wicked virus going around and I seemed to find (or, more accurately, it found me) during my trip to Seattle. Luckily, I had packed my BioBlue Leuco! So while it was a miserable experience consisting of intense full-body aches, zero appetite, extremely low energy and the inability to sleep because of those aforementioned symptoms, it provided me with an amazing methylene blue, or in this case leucomethylene blue, anecdote. Compared to the typical recovery time of 4 - 7 days or more, getting back to my normal self in 48 hours was nothing short of astounding.

Red Light Therapy & Acupuncture, Fascia & Cupping: A Deep Dive into Health Strategies w/ Dr. Chris Motley

The more and more I learn about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and acupuncture, the more I am intrigued and it just makes intuitive sense. It also helps when you learn this deep and complex knowledge from someone as intelligent and articulate as (now) three-time guest, Dr. Chris Motley. Long-time listeners of the show are familiar with Dr. Motley and his amazing command and intuition when it comes to TCM and other holistic modalities; new listeners.... you are in for a treat! He is by far one of my favorite humans to talk with, on and off the mic. Dr. Motley not only speaks from his depth of learning the information, but even more so from hands-on experience from his full day's of treating patients. During our conversation today, he details some fascinating discoveries he's made via experimenting with red light therapy and acupuncture points; he has observed some profound results particularly with viruses!  We also take a deep dive into the importance of our fascial system and why it is a crucial (and, unfortunately, a highly underrated and overlooked organ system) facet of our overall wellbeing. Most commonly known for playing a major role in our mobility and flexibility, the fascia plays a much deeper role in our vitality. Dr. Motley and I also discuss the invaluable role that cupping plays in optimizing fascial health, which leads to innumerable benefits that we detail during our talk. ​​We also delve into some intriguing topics that are of special interest to Dr. Motley currently, including psychological aspect of physiological growth, the connection between psychological stress and organ growth patterns and the exploration of devices that detect static charges on the skin for diagnostic purposesI hope you enjoy the conversation today with Dr. Motely.
