Can Light Actually Make You Smarter? Near Infrared Therapy, Memory & Cognitive Performance

You already know red light therapy is good for your skin, your muscles, and your joints. What most people haven't heard yet is what it does for your brain.In this episode of the Red Light Therapy Podcast, Mike Volkin and longevity specialist Dr. Alan Inman open up the conversation on cognitive health — covering brain fog, focus, long-term memory, concussion recovery, and the brain's own waste removal system in a single episode. Whether you're a knowledge worker trying to stay sharp through long days, an athlete with a history of head injuries, or just someone who wants to keep their mind performing at its best as they age, this episode covers the science in plain terms.Learn how near-infrared light reaches superficial brain tissue through the skull to improve cellular energy and circulation, why brain fog and midday crashes are often signs of mitochondrial fatigue rather than just tiredness, how transcranial photobiomodulation compares to caffeine as a focus and alertness tool, whether red light therapy is appropriate for athletes recovering from concussions, and why placing your panel at forehead and temple height maximizes cognitive benefits per session.Brought to you by platinumtherapylights.com
