About the why
"Solving a baldness problem, reducing joint pain, rejuvenating the skin and removing stretch marks are just some of the beneficial effects of exposure to red light."
About the process
"A 15-minute session [...] would equal [...] hours of sunshine. It provides significant relaxation in addition to releasing muscle tension. It can also act as an important element in sports recovery."
About the benefits
"In addition to health-related care, aesthetic effects would also be observed following red light treatments."
About the research
"Since then, there are around 4000 articles that have been published in the scientific literature. It has been shown to be not only useful for the skin in a wound that is slow to heal, or hair that needs to be regrown, but also for its anti-inflammatory effects on the joints. It really works."

About the process
"The skin uses the light as a source of energy to fuel the repair and rejuvenation of damaged cells, or, in the case of treating acne, kill bacteria. The energy stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, boosts circulation and accelerates tissue repair."
About Near-Infrared Light
"This is the most deeply absorbed wavelength, it increases cell permeability and absorption, smooths lines and wrinkles, improves elasticity, reduces pain and inflammation, accelerates wound healing and heals cystic acne."
About Red Light
"This increases natural hydration levels, reduced redness and inflammation, shrinks the appearance of pores regulates oil production, improves circulation, accelerates skin repair as is a medically-approved treatment for rosacea."

About the process
"It will be as easy as brushing your teeth or shaving, and as long as future studies support it, it just might save your eyesight."
About the science and the benefits
"The science works [...], because the light stimulates the health of mitochondria, which are like batteries in our cells. And because mitochondria are implicated in a broad range of diseases, insights like these could help lead to new treatments for diseases including Parkinson's and diabetes."

About the dangers of sunlight
"[...] While sunlight has many beneficial effects, such as vitamin D production and improved mood, it is not without its downsides. Too much exposure to sunlight, particularly to sensitive areas like the skin around your precious ball sac, can create sunburn, excess radiation, inflammation and damage. And let’s face it: you don’t want a shrunken, shriveled, dehydrated dick, no matter how impressive the tan."
About the alternative and the benefits
"Red light, however, is different than sunlight. Red light is comprised of light wavelengths in the range of 600-950 nanometers (nm). According to red light therapy proponents, red light works to stimulate ATP production, increase energy available to the cell and in particular, increase the activity of the Leydig cells in your testes, which are the cells responsible for testosterone production."
About the benefits
"Sunlight exposure directly to the testes reportedly has an even more profound effect, boosting production in Leydig cells (the cells that produce testosterone) by an average of 200%."

About the process and the science
"Red light is thought to work by producing a biochemical effect in cells that strengthens the mitochondria. The mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell — it’s where the cell’s energy is created. The energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things is called ATP (adenosine triphosphate)."
"By increasing the function of the mitochondria using RLT, a cell can make more ATP. With more energy, cells can function more efficiently, rejuvenate themselves, and repair damage."
About the wide range of benefits
"promotes: wound healing and tissue repair, improves hair growth in people with androgenicalopecia, help for the short-term treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome, stimulates healing of slow-healing wounds, like diabetic foot ulcers, reduces psoriasis lesions, aids with short-term relief of pain and morning stiffness in people with rheumatoid arthritis, reduces some of the side effects of cancer treatments, including oral mucositis, improves skin complexion and builds collagen to diminish wrinkles, helps to mend sun damage, prevents recurring cold sores from herpes simplex virus infections, improves the health of joints in people with degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee, helps diminish scars, relieves pain and inflammation in people with pain in the Achilles tendons"
