The Invisible Rainbow, Pt. 1
This week we will take a dive into the world of invisible light and its impact on our health. And I'm not talking about infrared light, the wavelength we associate with red light therapy that has positive health benefits; but, rather, the other invisible light that makes up over 99% of the electromagnetic spectrum. In his book, The Invisible Rainbow: A History of Electricity and Life, Arthur Firstenberg chronicles the impact that the evolution of electricity, radiation and non-native electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) has had on the health of humans and animals since its inception in the late 19th century.
This well-written and strongly-cited book by Firstenberg makes a very strong case that the vast majority of health maladies and diseases of the last couple of centuries are actually directly tied to electricity and the iterations of that technology (i.e., the electrical power grid, radio waves, telecommunication, wireless technology, advancements from 3G to 4G to 5G, etc.) versus the paradigm, which we are all too familiar with, of exercise and diet.This book has completely transformed my perception of electricity, the advancement of any technology and its indisputable negative impact on our health. In a nutshell, any human-made, non-native EMF causes metabolic disease, which is tantamount to saying it causes mitochondrial dysfunction. Based on the information presented in the book, provided you are a health conscious individual, you quickly realize you need to start prioritizing EMF-mitigating tactics over diet/exercise tactics. I am not saying you need to get rid of one to include the other, but rather that you can't out-exercise or out-diet/out-supplement dysfunctional mitochondria; you need a strong motor (i.e. mitochondria) before you can get the benefits from the fuel (i.e. diet and exercise).
In this episode, I cover one of the more profound chapters, Irritable Heart, in the sense that it clearly demonstrates the impact of electrical technology through various eras and how it has been a silent killer for countless cardiac conditions. In my opinion, 5G is further perpetuating and accelerating the issues outlined in this chapter. I hope you find this information as profound and paradigm-shifting as I do — knowledge is truly power. As always, light up your health (with EMFs from the earth/nature and sunlight)!

Acupoints & Anecdotes: Red Light Therapy for Animals & Humans w/ Ros Maindok
This week I am excited to welcome my first "fireside chat" with a red light therapy enthusiast! Calling in from Western Australia, Ros Maindok, first got illuminated by red light therapy back in 2010 when she took a course that was designed specifically for horses. This is back in the day when it was literally just red light and did not encompass the near-infrared light we are accustomed to with today's red light therapy devices. She began with a red light therapy torch and learned how to treat acupoints on horses, getting impressive results quickly. From there she was hooked on the healing capabilities of this simple, yet profound technology.
Of course, over time Ros's experiences and knowledge grew into treating other animals/pets and herself and her family. Similar to her results with horses, she realized some amazing results with her family, especially her husband. Ros highlights some fun anecdotes, which provides some great insight into "real life" results people are getting with red light therapy.
We also speak about how we see red light therapy expanding in the future and (hopefully) where it can get with more mainstream adoption. Like me, Ros is very impassioned and excited to share and spread her red light therapy knowledge; and with over a decade of experience, she comes from a place of know-how versus just reading a book or the research.
Sit back, relax and enjoy this fun conversation with Ros from the land down under (sorry, I couldn't help myself). And regardless of which side of the equator you are on, light up your health!

Irlen Syndrome: Perceptual Challenges & Light Sensitivities w/ Terry Carlson
This week on The Red Light Report we are going to gain a novel perspective on light and learn just how much it can affect our perceptual processing. Known by many names, including Irlen Syndrome, visual stress, and scotopic sensitivity, the symptoms that can be helped with color are wide-ranging and appear in many different populations, including those with migraines, brain injury, concussion, ADHD, autism, and learning difficulties. Interestingly and luckily, this debilitating condition can be quickly and effectively reversed by colored overlays and spectral lenses. I was able to sit down with Terry Carlson, a seasoned Irlens diagnostician, to take a deep dive into Irlen Syndrome and how she goes about diagnosing and treating this condition with the science of color!
Backed by over 40 years of research, Irlen is the pioneer and global leader in spectral filter color lens technology. This innovative, breakthrough solution has helped millions of adults and children around the world. With hundreds of certified providers in 46 countries around the world, Irlen is the original creator of colored lens treatment for light-based, visual processing difficulties.
The Irlen Method has earned millions of fans by providing a long-term, expertly-developed solution for reading problems, headaches, migraines, light sensitivity, ADD and ADHD, autism, and many other light-based difficulties–by directly addressing a core problem: the brain’s inability to process visual information and specific wavelengths of light.
This is a very interesting conversation and will make you see light through a new lens and, perhaps, the signs and symptoms may be similar to what you are currently experiencing. Be sure to look into Irlen Syndrome via the links below and share this information with any family members/friends that may be dealing with. Take the self test, it's free and may put you on the right path to recovery. Enjoy this episode and, as always, light up your health!

Research: Fluoride & Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Amber vs. Red Light For Skin Health & Treating Rotator Cuff Surgical Repair
It's been some time since we tackled some research, so in this week's solosode we're going to cover a wide variety of topics! Also, I wanted to reach out to my audience and let you know that I would like to start interviewing some of YOU (5 to 15 minutes segments) about your experiences and results with red light therapy. You would not have to disclose any personal information — simply share your story! I think it would be powerful for everyone to hear one another's stories and experiences. If you would be interested in participating please reach out here: podcast@biolight.shopWith the first article we will uncover fluoride's impact on mitochondrial health. If you remember from the last couple of episode's from Dr. Jerry Tennant's book, fluoride is an electron stealer and lowers your voltage (hint hint!). The second article looks at periocular skin health (i.e. skin around the eyes) and compares amber light versus red light in their abilities to decrease wrinkles. It turns out they are both great at doing so, but which one is superior?The last article looks at treating rotator cuff arthroscopic repair with red light therapy; specifically, self-treatment with lasers! It turns out, people are more than capable of accelerating their own recovery and rehab when given the proper tools and education. The protocol provided was also quite interesting and comprehensive, which is great to see from the research.
It's great to get back to some research and continue to broaden our red light therapy and mitochondrial knowledge. Enjoy the information and, as always, light up your health!

Healing is Voltage, Pt. 2
All of our cellular membranes are battery packs and hold a charge? We will continue our journey down the path of energetic health as we work our way through a particularly profound chapter in the book, Healing is Voltage, by Dr. Jerry Tennant. In the second part of this pivotal chapter, we will learn how cells acquire voltage, the role of water in electron exchange, how food carries its own voltage and the common ways electrons are taken from our bodies and how cells store them.Dr. Tennant also discusses why removing hydrogenated oils from your diet is a non-negotiable, as the dangers of trans fats have a strong correlation to obesity and overall health. He also explores the wisdom of acupuncture meridians and their impact on well-being that provides a new perspective on the interconnectedness of our organs and the role of energy flow.Lastly, Dr. Tennant unravels the profound relationship between acupuncture and yin/yang organs and further shows us how our entire body is a massive circuit and battery with tesla coils related to all of our organs; the end result is that it explains how all disease/cancer can be traced directly back to any area of low voltage that correlates to that tissue/organ. When the dots are connected, it is mind-expanding.
This episode is chalk full of interesting perspectives and noteworthy concepts. Nothing but gratitude to Dr. Jerry Tennant for sharing all of this information with us for the betterment of our voltage (i.e., quality of life!). As always, light up your health!

Healing is Voltage, Pt. 1
As you know, when I read a great book with profound information, I have to share it with you guys! Well, the most recent book I have been digging into continues to further my knowledge and reverence for how our body works and heals at an energetic level. In his book, Healing is Voltage, Dr. Jerry Tennant details in how our cells are meant to run at -20 to -25 millivolts (which means our bodies are electron-rich, so to speak) and that when we creep closer to zero and, God forbid, go into the positive territory, that's when our body becomes riddled with disease and cancer. It's as simple as that!So that begs the questions: how do we stay in the -20 to -25 millivolts range? What causes our cells to go above or below that and how to we return to that range? How does this ultimately affect our tissues, organs and body systems? What lifestyle habits pull us out of that range and what lifestyle habits can we adopt to stay in that range effortlessly? What about diet? What about medications? How do you measure it? This is all just the tip of the iceberg, as it relates to the book. But I will keep it simple and just stick to one chapter in the book to give you a taste of this paradigm-shifting information.Dr. Tennant has compiled relatively simple, yet profound information in the 550-page "handbook" that is just lurking in the archives of Amazon — just sitting there waiting to be read and applied to one's life. Why this information is not more prevalent and, in a perfect world, taught in school? Well, that's the beauty of this podcast. I can at least share it with you all and hopefully that begins a snowball effect to get this information spread to more and more people.
This will be at least a two-part series, as there is too much juicy information to put into one solosode. Sit back, accrue your electrons and enjoy the information. As always, light up your health!

Illuminating the Nuances of Red Light Therapy w/ Researcher Dr. Praveen Arany
This week on The Red Light Report, I am thrilled to welcome back the resident photobiomodulation researcher of this podcast, Dr. Praveen Arany. For you long-time listeners, you likely recognize that name from an episode last year where Dr. Arany showcased his photobiomodulation expertise as he delved into the exciting research he and his team were doing along with detailing some specifics about dosing red light therapy treatments. In this episode, Dr. Arany continues to be an amazing source of information as he clarifies on a wide variety of hot topics, FAQs and drops some new information as it pertains to red light therapy and infrared saunas!
As a quick refresher for dedicated listeners to the podcast and for those being introduced to Dr. Arany for the first time... Dr. Praveen Arany is trained as a dentist and an oral pathologist. He completed a joint PhD-Residency program at Harvard University as a Harvard Presidential Scholar. He has two certificates in clinical translational research from Harvard Medical School and the National Institute of Health. He has over 100 scientific publications with several well cited papers to his credit. A complete list of his publications on Pubmed is available here. He is a recipient of numerous awards and has been invited to speak in various national and international forums, reviews for over 50 scientific journals, serves on 9 journal editorial boards.
During our discussion today, Dr. Arany details the Arndt-Shultz curve (i.e., the biphasic dose response) and how the helps dictate treatment along with digging into the intricate interplay between energy, wavelength, and photons; we also touch upon essential factors such as light irradiance and the significance of third-party testing in ensuring product quality.
I thoroughly appreciate Dr. Arany's depth of photobiomodulation knowledge and also admire the research he and his team conducts, which helps propel the red light therapy space forward in a positive direction. I always walk away from our conversations enlightened and educated -- perhaps that's why he's a repeat guest on the podcast. Enjoy this episode, learn lots and, as always, light up your health!

Exploring Energetic Healing, Neurofeedback & Body Talk w/ Juli Nilson
Sometimes the smartest cookies and brightest experts are right under your nose. This week, I had to look no farther than my hometown to find neurofeedback specialist and energetic healing advoate, Juli Nilson. Through a mutual connection, I was exposed to Juli's unique skillset and results via neurofeedback, which is something I was not very familiar with. But, given my rapidly-growing interest in all things energy healing, I knew I had to sit down and pick her brain about the world of neurofeedback and other energetic healing techniques.
Juli has over twenty years of experience working in behavioral health and a background in both social work and youth engagement. She is a Certified Neurofeedback Specialist. In 2018, she received advanced neurofeedback training in the Othmer Method at the EEG Institute in California. Her training includes Synchrony, Alpha Theta, Trauma and Infra-low Frequency. Juli is experienced and adept at working with children, teens and adults with an emphasis on trauma.During our conversation, we take a deep dive into neurofeedback: how it works, what a treatment loos like, what it feels like, what conditions it's used for, how often it should be done and who should consider getting it done, amongst other talking points. Juli also discusses body talk, myofascial release, stress patterns Juli noticed throughout the virus pandemic, environmental toxins' impact, the truth about many ADD/ADHD diagnoses and much, much more!
Not only does Juli bring to light some unique and effective energetic treatment techniques, but she is also very easy to listen to and learn from. You will surely walk away from this episode with a greater appreciation for the brain and body's ability to heal itself when it's provided the right tools and energy. Enjoy and, as always, light up your health!
