“Honey, can we refrain from inviting your brother over? The man catches every bug out there; he’s had Covid three times! What’s next?—Monkeypox? At this point, being near him is a liability!” Though harsh sounding, everyone has become a bit more health conscious over these past few years. At the end of the day, we are only as strong as our immune system. Luckily, regular use of Red Light Therapy (RLT) will keep your immune system at it's peak performance.
The immune system, composed of various organs, cells and proteins working together, fights to protect the body from outside invaders. These invaders are everywhere in the form of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and toxins. The Innate Immune System, inherited from birth, is known as the rapid response system—the skin, eye’s cornea, and the mucus membrane that lines the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary tracts. It creates a physical barrier to protect the body against harmful germs, like parasites, worms (pictured above), and cancer cells, by covering and swallowing the invader through the process of phagocytosis. RLT strengthens this mucus membrane, by altering the circadian rhythm of the microbes, increasing the number of cells available to fight foreign pathogens.
Every cell in the body has a mitochondria which converts food molecules into energy known as Adenosine Tri Phosphate (ATP). RLT boosts ATP performance, allowing cells to function optimally, replicate successfully and fight any infections or foreign pathogens. RLT also boosts Nitric Oxide levels, the compound responsible for healing cells, increasing blood flow, and strengthening the immune system to fight, while regulating blood pressure and reducing cellular inflammation. Nitric Oxide is crucial for healthy arteries, and in turn, a healthy life!
RLT stimulates the production of Stem Cells. The body’s master cells, stem cells stay in a dormant state until they are needed to travel to different parts of the body and take on specialized roles. When there is an injury or invasion, stem cells develop into whatever cells are needed at that time. Unhealthy cells are the cause of most diseases and degenerative conditions. Healthy cells lead to better health. With less cellular stress, they are more able to combat injury, inflammation, and skin conditions.
Aside from quality sleep, exercise, and regular use of RLT, citrus fruits, red bell peppers, broccoli, garlic, ginger, spinach, yogurt, almonds, sunflower seeds, turmeric, green tea, papaya and kiwi, are all foods that will boost the immune system. It is also important to stay away from smoking, alcohol, chronic stress and mentally/physically sick people.
