Red and infrared light

Red and infrared light support mitochondrial function and skin resilience.

Strong consensus

For skin health and photobiomodulation.

“the red spectrum of light penetrates into the mitochondria kicks nitric oxide off and then the electrons can flow through”

In their own words

One faithful sentence per source, linked to the moment it was said; quiet chips mark where money is involved.

a Princeton-trained molecular biology PhD recommend
“Red and infrared light primes skin for UV light assimilation, supports melanin production, reduces inflammation, and stimulates mitochondrial energy production.”

a GP with a Master of Public Health recommend
“Red and infrared light directly stimulate mitochondrial electron transport chain to facilitate energy and water production, which artificial indoor lighting lacks”

Worth discussing with your GP, especially if you take medication or are pregnant. Entrain describes what is publicly taught; it does not prescribe.

Infrared light therapy

Infrared light therapy is widely valued for supporting mitochondria and relaxation.

Strong consensus

“infrared light which can penetrate 8cm into the body can help to clear this out of the way so that your mitochondria can carry on making ATP and water”

Infrared exposure

Infrared exposure helps support healthy blood flow and cellular energy production.

Strong consensus

“The main things are sunlight exposure, infrared light, anything that's going to build charge in your body is going to help build the structured water and that’s going to prevent this clotting response.”

Grounding

Grounding may help reduce inflammation and support mitochondrial function.

Strong consensus

“This process this we call it earthing or grounding where our skin so any skin it could be hands or feet or any part of our skin that touches the Earth's surface is going to we're going to absorb those free electrons from the Earth's surface and that naturally thins our blood”
