A natural boost for your health

Have you ever heard of nitric oxide (NO)? This small, gaseous molecule plays a huge role in our bodies, affecting our blood circulation, immune system, and even brain function. But what happens when your body doesn’t produce enough NO? This can lead to various health complaints such as fatigue, delayed recovery and even an increased risk of vascular diseases. Fortunately, red light therapy, especially at a wavelength of 670 nm, offers a natural solution to stimulate the release of NO.

What is nitric oxide and why is it so important?

Nitric oxide is essential for the health of our blood vessels. It relaxes the smooth muscle cells in our blood vessel walls, causing blood vessels to dilate and improving blood flow (DiCarlo & Lushington, 2017). This allows oxygen and nutrients to get to where they are needed faster, which is important for our recovery and overall health.

When your body doesn’t produce enough NO, blood vessels can become stiff and blood flow becomes less efficient. This can be especially problematic for people with chronic diseases like diabetes, where blood flow is often already reduced. A deficiency of NO can therefore lead to decreased energy, weakened immune response, and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (Hamblin & Huang, 2022).

How does red light therapy stimulate NO production?

Research shows that exposure to 670 nm red light increases the production of NO in our bodies (Birks & Clemens, 2021). Red light therapy stimulates the mitochondria, the powerhouses of our cells, to release NO. This helps relax the blood vessels, which improves blood flow and can reduce pain. In addition, with more NO, the body can better deal with inflammation, which is beneficial for people with chronic inflammatory diseases and muscle and joint complaints.

The Benefits of Red Light Therapy for NO Deficiency

Without enough NO, you run the risk of health problems, from energy loss to blood pressure imbalances. Red light therapy, specifically at a wavelength of 670 nm, can help your body replenish this deficiency and offers the following benefits:

  • Improved circulation : Healthy blood flow is essential for recovery, both after exercise and in combating chronic pain (Birks & Clemens, 2021).
  • Less inflammation : NO has anti-inflammatory properties, which helps combat pain and stiffness, especially in conditions like arthritis (DiCarlo & Lushington, 2017).
  • Faster recovery of muscles and joints : With sufficient NO in the body, muscles and joints recover faster from injuries and overload.
