At this point, most of you know about red light therapy and all the amazing benefits that come with it. That’s why in this episode, we are going to look at it from a different perspective. Rather than focusing solely on the common uses of red light therapy, we’ll dive into its potential in enhancing brain health and cognition function, managing conditions like Parkinson's disease, altering your microbiome, and enhancing the connection between your gut and brain. We’ll also dive into the lesser-known areas of this therapy such as its influence on structured water and so much more.  We go deep into individual case studies, current trials, and the role of dosing considerations in red light therapy to accentuate the fact that red light therapy is one of the most underrated yet powerful tools and can do some amazing things for healing and optimization – far beyond what most of us realize! Sarah is the co-founder and CEO of Ceratrhive, a company that develops a very special kind of red light therapy devices that we will also discuss in this episode. She has a postgraduate degree in Clinical Neuroscience from Roehampton University in London. She also holds BSc degrees in Psychological Sciences and Nutritional Medicine from Westminster University and Thames Valley University, respectively. Currently, she is pursuing a diploma in Photobiomodulation at the University of Montpellier in France. During the initial decade of her career, Sarah worked as a research scientist in the pharmaceutical industry. Her role involved planning and conducting experiments to examine the impact of electrostatics on physiology.   Thank you to our sponsors for making this episode possible: Carol Bike: Visit carolbike.com and use promo code NAT for $100 off.

Ongoing research on the effects of red light therapy demonstrates its potential to improve cognition in individuals with Down syndrome and alleviate symptoms of major depressive disorder. Specific devices have been designed for use on the head, as the skull presents a barrier for the light to penetrate. When we apply red light to the lower abdomen, it can benefit the microbiome and overall gut health. This is due to the red light therapy targeting the vagus nerve, blood cells, and even fat cells.
