Limitations and Benefits of Red Light Therapy are Dose Dependent

Post by ofonorow » Sun Nov 10, 2024 11:14 am

When people say limit Red Light therapy to 20 minutes at time, they mean limit red light thearpy to 20 minutes!

See: https://rumble.com/v5ox2pb-dr.-jack-kru ... n-amd.html

Still a novice, but I have been studying the work of Dr. Jack Kruse. He recommends 20 minutes Red and Near Infrared light sessions, four times daily.

I (without the knowledge in this post) gave my wife w/Parkinson's all 80 minutes of Red and Infrared Light at one time, and then some. After more than a week of 2 hours+ sessions of Red Light (given before she got out of bed in the morning), she lost the use of her legs!! Basically she became more of an ALS/MS-like patient, and could not get out of her wheel chair, etc.

I backed off all red light, and she regained the use of her legs, such as it was. I have restarted 20 minutes per day and will report on her progress in this thread.

The Rabbit Hole


On one of Alexis Cowan's UNINDOCTRINATE YOURSELF podcasts (#24) interviewing Kruse, they mention a study that found if you are in the sun, the melanin in your skin acts like a "solar panel" and your body gets the energy (electrons) it needs from the sun. Importantly, the normal ATP electron transport in the mitochondria is regulated down.

As if when the body switches to getting ts energy from sunlight, the energy from food is conserved. Meaning that with a lot of sunlight, less food is required.

You might think this would promote more fat storage, but apparently the reduction in hunger overrides any fat storage effect. If you want to lose weight using sunlight as your power source (rather than food) you should eat less.

And it turns out that the natural Red Light in sunshine primes the body for the coming UV light that powers the body, but the Red and Near Infrared light is available only for short periods, just after sunrise and before sunset. Kruse's advise is to not miss a sunrise, face the sun, and stay in the sun for 90 minutes every day. No glasses or sun screen. (There are reports that people only sunburn if they are wearing sunglasses, meaning the light on the eyes is important.)

Here is an important anecdote about the Healing Ability of Red LIght

https://rumble.com/v5ox2pb-dr.-jack-kru ... n-amd.html

This is from a recent Kruse blog that mentions Red LIght:

Recent work in this area shows that POMC neurons exhibit a dimorphic (biphasic) response to mitoribosomal stress in a dose-dependent manner; homozygous deletion of Crif1 was detrimental (i.e., severe light stress), whereas heterozygous disruption was beneficial (i.e., mild light stress).


How does IR-A light work in the sun? A biphasic dose response has been frequently observed where low levels of red light have a much better effect on stimulating and repairing tissues than higher levels of light. The so-called Arndt-Schulz curve is commonly used to describe this biphasic dose response. Centralized medicine has no idea how POMC works with light. POMC gets cleaved using the biphasic actions in light. When cleavage is imprecise, disease results.

MITOCHONDRIAC UNDERSTANDING: SUNLIGHT IS MANDATORY for making water at CCO during the day in mammals. If you do not get enough sun or live at a high latitude inside all day, you need more water to avoid the vasopressin release issued POMC. If we do not get enough sunlight, we're dehydrated, and then we lose circadian feedback control of vasopressin, and the entire water cycle in our body goes awry. This facilitates the development of autoimmunity.

This is how lousy clock management leads to epigenetic disease by decreasing mitochondrial redox power. This is why big pharma is now pushing the use of anti-vasopressin analogs for MS patients. Understanding POMC is understanding modern human neolithic diseases. Mammals are creatures sculpted by light.

Another great Alexia Jasmin Cowan podcast on the nitty gritty of sunlight and how light works to shape our biology.

Recent articles on Red Light research.

Note, limit sessions to 20 minutes at a time, up to 4 times daily!



Red Light Therapy for Diabetes: A Game Changer or Just a Bright Idea?

https://diatribe.org/diabetes-managemen ... r-diabetes
Key takeaways:

Researchers are exploring the potential benefits of red light therapy, which involves exposing the body to low-level wavelengths of light to enhance cellular energy production.
While research is still emerging, red light therapy may help reduce pain from peripheral neuropathy, improve wound healing in individuals with diabetic ulcers, and potentially lower blood sugar levels.
Early studies show positive outcomes, but more human trials are needed to confirm the long-term effectiveness and safety of red light therapy for managing diabetes and its related complications.


Light therapy approach better treats brain injuries

https://www.laserfocusworld.com/bio-lif ... n-injuries

The team’s now-patented approach relies on red and near-infrared (near-IR) light in the 600- to 1000-nm wavelength range, where it can be absorbed by cytochrome-c oxidase, the main light-sensitive molecule in mitochondria. This aids cellular respiration, the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP; an energy source essential for healthy brain function) molecules, modulation of oxidative stress, and reduced free radical production. It also triggers cell signaling and gene transcription.

“All of this leads to the positive effects of photobiomodulation,” says Zubair Ahmed, a professor of neuroscience and the Neuroscience and Ophthalmology section lead.
