Eye Health & Gut Health w/ Red Light Therapy
from The Energy Code · host Dr. Mike Belkowski
This week on The Red Light Report, I will cover two of the most popular topics as it relates to red light therapy: eye health and gut health. There is an abundance of information and research in these two areas — from being able to mitigate, prevent and even reverse eye pathologies to improving the diversity and balance of your beneficial bacteria to harmful bacteria in your gut. Let's shed some light on these two areas of health and wellness! On the previous solosode, we covered the following topics in the eBook: Brain & Cognitive Health and Cancer. Eye health & gut health are undoubtedly two topics I consistently get a ton of questions about and, not coincidentally, these are two sections in the eBook with some of the most new information added to them (Gut Health is actually a brand new section in the eBook and on the BioLight website).Personally, I treat my gut and eyes with red light therapy at least once a week as prophylactic treatments. Time will tell how beneficial those treatments are! Again, even thought there's only two topics covered this week, I think this is information anyone and everyone can benefit from. As always, light up your health! - Dr. Mike Belkowski discusses the following: An announcement about innovative new BioLight products 9:37 - Eye safety with red light therapy 13:09 - Mitochondrial dysfunction 14:02 - Retinal benefits from near-infrared light 14:59 - Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) 15:56 - RPE degeneration and red light therapy 16:35 - Macular degeneration 17:25 - Dry eye disease 19:06 - Improved cone function through red light therapy 19:50 - Improved visual acuity and macular perimetry 20:24 - Treating blindness 21:26 - Treating niches in diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration 21:56 - Recovery of neurons in the brain 25:22 - Fat loss 25:49 - Gut health 25:45 - Alzheimer’s disease and red light therapy 25:46 - Results of RLT research on Alzheimer’s disease mice 27:32 - Parkinson’s disease 27:46 - The gut-brain axis and its importance 29:02 - Improved gut microbiome 31:32 - Ulcerative colitis (UC) 32:41 - Improved tissue damage 33:10 - The booming new area of photobiomodulation research 33:53 - Improved diversity and abundance of gut flora 36:14 - Prevention of Alzheimer’s disease 37:36 - Anti-inflammatory and healing properties for colitis-induced damage to the intestinal wall - Biohacker Live Aug 26-28 - Catch Mike’s Interview at: Biohackerlive.com - Check out the Kindle version of Red Light Therapy Treatment Protocols eBook, 4th Edition - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Instagram YouTube
