Long-wavelength light exposure increases mitochondrial electron transport chain speed and stimulates mitochondrial protein synthesis.

“But we spend so much more time indoors now under artificial lighting where the short wavelength lighting, >> everyone's low. It really disrupts how the mitochondria process energy and the long wavelength light from sunlight, the so-called red and infrared light serves as a protective feature against the short wavelength light.”

“He also explains how longwavelength light, things like red light, can be protective against mitochondrial damage caused by excessive exposure to things like LED bulbs and screens, which of course we are all exposed to pretty much all day long nowadays.”

“So the first reaction I think is that the motor starts to go around a little faster. But then something else happens which is really interesting which is we start to make more of these chains that make energy. So let's say mitochondria has got a is a chain. It's a series of things and electrons are passed along that chain um to produce energy. Well when we give long wavelength light we find the proteins in those chains we find a lot more of them.”

“I just think that whatever we're missing from the out of doors that we need and is healthy for our mitochondria which clearly involves long wavelength light, your work has demonstrated that beautifully and the work of others of course you're always so good at attribution. So I I want to acknowledge you for that um by doing it as well. I think [snorts] people should do it and if it's an incandescent bulb or a h hallogen or um candle light um it seems like it would make a meaningful difference.”

“Campfire also great red light therapy. No joke. Long wavelength light only coming out of that fire. And you know, everyone's obsessed with like red light therapy you can get from the sun when you don't want to get too much UV. Yeah, you get tons of long wavelength light exposure, which is great for which is known to be great for mitochondria.”

“and then they did the same thing with the red light and the red light actually improved it from the control so it shows that when you have this isolated light experience especially in the blue that's not being balanced by the red and infrared then you're going to have you know cellular damage from from blue light exposure”
