So today I want to dive into the conversation around red light, Retina health, and Drusen. I'm very excited about this topic, because finally, there's research that validates the things that I've been doing for over 30 years, especially in the field of light and color therapy. So I want to share about a study that was done by Dr. Glen Jeffery, he's the lead author, the University of College of London's Institute of Ophthalmology. And Dr. Jeffery writes in his research paper, that a single morning exposure of red light, and that's going to be at 670 nanometers can improve declining vision. In fact, he said that, it only takes looking at the red light for three minutes in the morning. And this can significantly improve deteriorating eyesight. So here's the backstory. When we are born, our retina grows out from the brain. So every cell of the retina, our brain cells, this actually starts in utero. Very early, you know, after conception, that we start to see the developing eyes grow out from the brain. So every tissue of the eyeball originates from the brain, especially the retina cells. So the retina is not just connected to the brain. The retina is part of our central nervous system, you've heard me talk about this a lot. We can tell a person has eyes stress just based on their pupil response. If they're in a dilated pupil response, their peripheral vision is going to be constricted their eyes, stress is going to be off the charts. And they're going to be very sensitive to light. That's just one example. There are many examples how the central nervous system is very connected to the eye. Now what's kind of cool about the retina is that it is the only part of the brain that actually lives outside the skull, or we call the cranial vault. But it is an access point I'm referring to the retina where we can actually make a reversal in the aging process. I get this question a lot, you know if if your retina is damaged, and actually if any of the cells die at any point of your life, you can't really regenerate the retina. And these retina cells demand the highest amount of energy in the body to remain healthy throughout life. That's why I talk about how it's so important that we we have to oxygenate and hydrate our eyes. Every day. We do it daily, that the foods you eat if you're doing supplements if you're doing eyedrops, you want to do the highest quality organic because your eyes require this high amount of energy to remain healthy. And if not, you start developing inflammation, oxidative stress.
