In this episode of The Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Forrest Smith, Co-Founder and CEO of Kineon—a leading red light therapy device company—to uncover the science behind photobiomodulation and how it can reduce chronic inflammation, improve brain function, support thyroid health, and even influence the vagus nerve.

A former pro rugby player, Forrest shares his personal healing journey from a meniscus tear to full-body recovery—using a powerful blend of infrared lasers and red-light LEDs. Now, he’s on a mission to help others harness this same technology.
