0:26.1	Red light therapy for Hashimoto's, shockingly, two studies found that between 30 and 50% of people
0:34.2	who performed a course of red light therapy on their thyroid gland could
0:39.0	discontinue thyroid hormone medication.
0:43.3	Mind blowing, and there are actually, again, two studies that have affirmed this.
0:47.5	So let's discuss what red light therapy is, how can help your thyroid gland not only to
0:54.1	produce more hormone but also
0:55.5	to fairly significantly lower thyroid antibody levels and some of the other side benefits if you
1:03.1	will of improved hair health skin health mood and energy and then we'll button this all up with a at-home protocol and device
1:14.0	recommendations because this is an area where, sadly, there are people who are giving you
1:19.0	technology with good marketing at egregious costs. So I want to give you sort of the

1:38.6	So we want to save you from that pitfall too.
1:40.4	Okay, so let's jump in.
1:42.4	Red light therapy has a few AKAs. Photo biomodulation is one, cold laser,
1:48.3	low-level laser, all pretty much the same thing. What you're getting is depicted in this image
1:54.5	showcasing the spectrums of light from blue to red to near infrared and most of these devices these red light therapy devices
2:04.4	will give you between 600 to about a thousand nanometers of wavelength. That's going to matter
