    What exactly is it that red light does?

    How is red light bioactive? I get that it does a lot of great things, but the Peat articles don't really explain why. Explanation is fine, but if anyone knows of any really good resources or diagrams that can help explain it, that'd be even better.

    Hi all, This topics has been discussed many times, without any definite resolution. Hopefully, I will be able to add something to it (not the confusion:-) though). So, the confusion stems from the fact that Ray Peat recommends a heat lamp designed for 130V network but run at 120V. In his...

    Red Light Treats Ms

    Nothing new here for the dedicated RP community, since we know red light is beneficial. But I think this is the first study to hit the news in terms of using red light for MS, and also recognizing openly that the cause of MS is mitochondrial dysfunction (which red light ameliorates). So, one...

    If somebody doesn't want to use incandescent bulbs in the house because they're too expensive, warm white LEDs seem to be a better option than CFL. Warm White apparently has a better spectrum (i.e., more red and less blue) than regular white led. Warm White Spectrum: White LED Spectrum...

    Red Light And Circadian Cycle

    I read the interesting claim that red lights are used for night illumination because they are supposed to be safer in terms of interference on the circadian cycle. Is there any truth to that? What are some interesting implications? They give a bit more explanation:
