🚨 Adding red light therapy into my nightly bedtime routine has been one of the easiest bio hacks with some of the biggest benefits

I just turn on my @joovvsocial after my shower while I floss, oil pull, and brush my teeth and let the red light absorb into my skin.

🧬 Time for some science:

Just like your body can absorb UVB and convert it into Vitamin D3, your body can take other wavelengths of light and use them in different ways.

When our skin is exposed to specific wave lengths of red and near infrared light, an enzyme called cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) in our cells absorbs the photons of light. This in turn modulates how our cells use oxygen and nitric oxide, ultimately increasing production of ATP and reducing oxidative stress.

In short, red light makes our mitochondria more efficient. And the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, so that has a lot of downstream benefits.

Red light isn’t picky in the mitochondria it stimulates so it has the power to benefit all systems in the body, which is why its benefits are so widespread.

It can help with inflammation, sleep, mental clarity, skin health, blood flow, workout performance, recovery and more. And all you have to do is stand in front of a ligh
