    I have used it in the last 6 months and had unbelievable results with pain reduction - also noticed my skin got better however, my blood work for blood cancer that has been under control for years all of a sudden went haywire. I think there is a theory that it can stimulate unhealthy cells but also cancer cells. Timing seems ironic to me.

    I goofed when I bought my first red light bulbs. Got red only grow lights. Very happy mistake. Very nice room lights!

    Thx for the good content - Do you think using my Aputure amc (rgb light for videography) for red light therapy is a good idea?

      Do they tell you the wavelength (in nanometers or nm). It’s important that you have the right wavelength and intensity of light. If the light isn’t designed for therapy then it’s highly unlikely to have the right specs.

    I've just bought a therapy face lamp that has red, yellow and blue options. the blue apparently being anti-bacterial. Would you say to avoid using the blue option?

      I just asked the same question I have a face mask that has those colors as well but I also have just red light devices I don't know if he ment that the blue wasn't good but the red is ok ?? Hmmm

      That’s a great question. The research does suggest that blue LEDs are great for antibacterial purposes, however there is also evidence that excessive blue light exposure causes DNA damage and early skin aging.
      For best results you should aim to have a red light therapy session after your blue light sessions, get the best of both worlds.

      From this article:
      “They do know that the penetration of visible blue light through the skin can cause reactive oxygen species, which then can lead to DNA damage and breakdown of our collagen and elastin fibers,”
      www.everydayhealth.com/skin-beauty/is-blue-light-harming-your-skin-health/
      While there is still more research to do on the effects of blue light on your skin, we already know from many studies that red light helps with collagen and elastin production, as well as reducing inflammation, so it would be a great add to your skin care routine.

      @iClipsy we’ve never had any of our customers complain of losing facial fat, but in theory it could be possible that some built up “puffiness” in the face is lost since red light therapy increases circulation in the area.
      A slight warm feeling is alright, and you’ll mostly feel this from the near-infrared (if your device lets you switch between red and near-infrared you can test this). The difference is the device will not heat up (like an infrared bulb which can burn you if you touch it). What you are feeling as heat is the near-infrared resonating with some water in your tissues, completely normal.

    What about the flicker rate, which is equally if not more health damaging ?

      Very good point. It’s also an issue which you will find addressed in high quality red light therapy devices. All the Mychondria units are flicker free too

      Great question, and we saw you had the same as another viewer. I’ll reshare the response below, but it’s important to know that shorter wavelengths (mainly blue and green) will have similar effects. The yellow, red and infrared are a lot safer as they are longer frequencies, meaning more dominant in Nature:

    And where can we buy a affordable light meter to know we won’t be harmed ?

    • @mychondria
      @mychondria  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You could get a simple spectrometer from Amazon, which would probably cost around $300, but this wouldn’t be necessary to test as red light therapy devices don’t hide their spectrum colors. If you wanted to test the lights in your home or office, then you could look into the spectrometer.
      The point of the video is that red light light therapy devices will not pose the same “LED risks” as is known from standard LEDs used in a non-therapeutic manner.
      If you have any other questions, just let us know.

    Does red light therapy help lower blood pressure?

    • @mychondria
      @mychondria  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Although we don't have research to indicate a direct reduction in blood pressure from red light therapy, we do know there is evidence of red light therapy supporting/preventing the outcomes associated with high blood pressure. For examples:
      One study found a strong protective effect from red light therapy where researchers stated:
      "with reductions in total infarct size (up to 76%), decreases in inflammation and scarring, and increases in tissue repair"
      Link: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28181487/
      Another study showed how red light therapy is able to protect hemoglobin and improve oxygen capacity in the blood therefore a way to help the body lower blood pressure.
      "red LED phototherapy is feasible and effective at inhibiting heme aggregation and enhanced the HbO2 content in vitro. It provides persuasive experimental data in support of treating hypertension in vivo"

    Doesn't LED lights give off an unhealthy amount of EMF? That's what many natural health practitioners say.

    • @mychondria
      @mychondria  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s not necessarily the LEDs. Battery operated LEDs usually emit near zero EMF. It’s the other components (drivers, fans etc.) which produce EMFs. If the company doesn’t do anything to reduce these, then the EMFs are very high with these products.
